2011 - A Retrospective

I'm jumping on the 'year in review' bandwagon.  It's been so fun reading every one else's. 

I started my blog in August of this year, but prior to that, I had a gallery at Splitcoaststampers.  So, my cards from January - July are from SCS, and my cards from August - December are from my blog.  It's been fun looking back over the year to put this post together.











April

 

May























Join in the fun!


Do you have any fun plans for tonight?  We always have a family night in, with an elaborate dinner normally cooked by my husband.  This year, he has enlisted our daughters as sous chefs.  I am always the pastry chef (and dish washer).  

Happy new year to all.  See you next year.  And,


Thanks for Visiting

    What a great idea!
    Cathy had mentioned it but then I forgot because...
    well...
    it wasn't New Year's yet so I had plenty of time...
    and now it's here! :)
    I had missed a lot of your SCS cards a well and it's so great to go back and see all the projects over the year!
    And your New Year's sounds a lot like ours...
    except no elaborate dinner...
    it's junk food night and games for us!
    This year plans are a little different...
    but we're still going to play games while taking care of Goose!
    Happy New Year! :)

    Guess I am bragging, but I have one of those famous cards sitting right in front of me as I type this! I love all of these cards and even recognize one of our 4 of a Kind cards too. Happy New Year to one of my very best friends.
