Best Cards of 2013

In general, I have had an uncreative year!  Most of the cards I liked were made in January, and instead of considering this an adventure in picking my favorite - it has been an adventure in learning what I have to do to improve.  What I have learned ---- I use way too many jewel type embellishments, and I don't stamp as much as I would like to.  So here are the cards I still liked after I disliked so many!  It is all about learning - to me!

My Favorite


I LOVED coloring this image!




I had 2 months in 2013 that I made no cards.  My mojo was taken over by stress, pain, and surgery.  I LOVE my pain management device (named "Buuuuzz), and I do not miss the pain it has relieved.  I am hoping that my goal of meditation and spirituality in 2014 helps my creativity.

Happy New Year - and may 2014 bring you blessings and joy.

Valentines Cards

Yup - I am busy making Valentines Day cards!  Cupid's deadline to have cards in the shipper's hands is December 31, 2013.  So I have all of my V-Day supplies out and my busy hands are happy to be back in my craft room creating! 

Here are a few cards I have made, trying VERY hard to keep them clean, simple and flat!
