I’ve noticed that many bloggers are posting their favorite cards of the past year. What a fun way to reflect back on how we’ve grown and changed over the course of a year. I’ve been blogging since June 2011. Since then, I’ve met so many talented paper crafters! Most have inspired me on a regular basis and some have become my friends. I feel so fortunate to have this hobby in my life. The Internet has allowed me to share my passion for cardmaking with other crafters around the world. I’ve noticed that my style of cardmaking has changed over time and I’ve recently embraced the clean and simple approach. Here are some of my favorite cards of the past year.
Which one is your favorite? If you’ve posted your favorite cards of 2012 please leave me a link, so I can stop by for a peek.

So there you have it . . . my personal favorites for 2012!
Although it was my plan throughout the year to simplify my blogging activities, I’ve been thrilled to be a part of some fantastic Design Teams. I truly value my experiences and have learned a lot about blogging and the craft industry.
As you may have noticed I’ve changed the look of my blog and re-organized it. Over the course of the year it really became cluttered. I wanted to start the new year with a fresh new look. As far as staying all neat and tidy in 2013 . . . well . . . we’ll have to see how that goes! 
Thanks so much for visiting my blog and leaving comments over the past year. It really warms my heart to know that I have readers that enjoy seeing my creations. Please remember that I also enjoy seeing your work and LOVE to visit other blogs. So, don’t forget to add your blog address when you comment.
Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!
I love all of your cards Jackie so could not just pick one.
Your cards are SO SO beautiful and creative!! I couldn’t pick one, so I picked three. I LOve love the second card of March, the sunshine card of June, and the rocket card of August. Again all your cards are fabulous! I need to make some time and go through your previous post!

Oh Jackie, your style is so very wonderful! I love them all, especially the mason jar:)
I recognize some of these beauties and have delighted in the ones I haven’t seen before
Thank you, it has been a tremendous year of inspiration 
What a Fabulous collection of cards it is !
I really love your circular card with the cutout tree image =) Thanks for posting your favorite cards from the year, I have done so too on my blog (which was a lot of fun)!
Love your cards! And love your style! Cannot choose one favorite. Those ones with Kraft base from August, October, November and December are the ones.
I don’t do similar post this year. It was so busy and I didn’t crafted a lot. But have hope that next year I will be more productive.
And I like the new look of your blog. I’m simplifying mine as well.
See you next year!
These are beautiful, Jackie! I love all of your cards. Happy New Year!
I don’t know why your posts never show up on my WP-reader…GRrr. These are all awesome!
Such an amazing collection of talent Jackie! I’m so lucky to be able to call you one of my blog friends and hope that 2013 is a fantastic year! Happy New Year to you my friend!
I’m just amazed and bewildered… that you would ask me to pick a favorite. These are all just incredible, Jackie!
I do love that cute little daydreaming fish! 
You’re an inspiration. I wish you and your family a very happy 2013! 
So many gorgeous designs revisited – it was fun to see these again and be inspired a second time around! As I was scrolling through them, I found myself ‘ooh’ing and ‘aah’ing and thinking I’d spotted my fave, then I’d scroll some more and have to choose a new favourite, haha!
I’ve done a little roundup of some of my fave cards from the year too: http://www.justsomestuffimade.com/2013/01/01/looking-forward-to-2013/
Looking forward to lots more fun in 2013 and enjoying more of your lovely designs – you are so right Jackie, blog friendship is a joy. Thanks always, and good luck with your DT quest in the new year! Rx
I’m so looking forward to doing this – I loved it last year, and I love seeing everyone else’s! I usually include my favourite books from the same month while I’m at it
I love basically every single one of these – the one I keep going back to is the ‘go boldly’. LOVE that!
All gorgeous creations Jackie!! My very favourite would be a toss up between “Go Boldly” and your snowmen – must be a vellum thing LOL!
PS Here’s my top 12 (plus a few LOL!) http://lyndalhiggins.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/my-top-12-for-2012.html
