Happy New Year!

Hello my friends!!

I hope you all brought in the new year better then I did...I was so super tired, that I think I was literally snoring my way through it..having almost 12hrs of sleep at the end of it all..but so needed it...

So my post today, I wanted to start out, by thanking each and everyone of you from the bottom of my heart for all the kindness, supportive, caring, wonderful comments, emails, tweets that you have given to me through 2012..you are all the best readers and you just know how to make my heart smile, thank you so so so much!

Here's hoping that 2013 is a much better, safe, happy and healthy year for us all!

So a post would not really be a post unless there was something crafty right??  Well there have been a few people around blog land sharing their favourite cards for 2012 and so I decided to celebrate the end of one year and today being the start of a new, by sharing just a few of my favourites with you all..this was kind of hard to narrow down, but here they are...




There always has to be an ultimate favourite and well I have to say that this one below was the number 1 for 2012...it was not just fun to create, but had great technique and a new way to use text paper...



Wishing you all a Happy New Year and fabulous 2013!!

Hugs
