2010 In Review

I've done a Year in Review post the last two years I believe, so thought I'd better stick with tradition this year!  I don't feel like I stamped quite as much this year due to getting busier and busier as my kids get older.  But I bet once I start looking back on all I've done I'll realize I did quite a bit.  Enjo!

So, here we go, a few of my favorites from 2010: 

January

February

March 

April

May

June

July

August

September

October

November

December

That's a wrap- thanks for joining me for this walk through 2010!

Here's to more great things to come.

Year in Review- the final chapter

First of all I need to apologize- I had to turn on the comment moderation the other day due to getting some junk spam and random unrelated comments. However, I've never used it before and accidentally rejected my first 5 comments. One was spam but I somehow rejected all of them! So sorry- I have no idea how to get them back. At least I got to read them first!

Anyway, here are my final two picks from January and February 2009:

January: Had to pick one scrapbook page!

February

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like my picks for 2009 and I'd love to see yours! If you decide to do something similar let me know so I can come check them out. Be sure to stop back soon- I got LOTS of stamping done this weekend and have plenty to show you for the next several days.

A Year in Review- Part Two

This must have been a year for flowery cards. Either that or I'm just in the mood for spring already! So here are my top picks of March through July. Guess I'll have to fit January and February on a separate post.

March
April

May

June

July

So what do you think? Do you like seeing a year in review? I imagine none of you saw every one of these, no matter how regular you are. It is fun for me to round up some favorites and remember making each one. As soon as I get January and February posted for you I'll be ready to start on new creations for 2010!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Happy New Year!! A look back

I hope you celebrated the New Year with style and are recuperating on this first day of 2010! We put in a very late night but really enjoyed ourselves! Euchre was the game of the evening last night.

In keeping with a tradition I started in 2009 I am going to recap the year for you with one of my favorites cards from each month. You can click on the month to view the original post with details and more chatter. Here are August through December:

I'll be back with January through July a little later. Thanks for stopping by today!

Year in Review- part two

I'm back with more:

June 2008 (those gorgeous flowers helped me choose this one!)

July 2008
August 2008

September 2008 (Alcohol Wipes technique)

October 2008 (can't beat that Top Note Die!)

November 2008 (Lovin' Rubons!)

December 2008

I have to admit that some months I had a hard time choosing, and other months I only had a few to choose from! I did try to stick with SUO (Stampin' Up Only stuff, which isn't hard) and did have a few others that were favorites but they didn't photo as well. Hope you enjoy! Can't wait to try this again for 2009 and see how I've changed and hopefully improved in my stampin'!

Why don't you go take a look at what you've done this year and see how you've changed! In the mean time I'd love to hear which one you like the BEST!

Thanks for stopping by!

Year in Review

I've been seeing this idea around blogland and thought I'd join in the fun... this is an especially good idea since I've either been too busy, or just too drained to do much fun stuff in the way of stamping lately!

I do want to mention that we got our son's birthday party overwith this weekend, complete with 8 children under the age of 9 in my house overnight with the majority of them being loud, rowdy, HUNGRY, smelly boys (myDD got to have one friend also, so 2 girls whom I barely noticed). Thank goodness my DH is a gym teacher because he referee'd games of dodgeball, football, kickball, whiffle ball, basketball etc for nearly 4 hours at the high school gym before bringing them home!

THEN I even finished writing out my Christmas cards last night, although I still need to address the majority of the envelopes and go buy stamps! If my procrastination makes you feel better about yourself, then ENJOY!

I do have a scrapbook page nearly complete which I will get on here soon, but in the mean time I've decided to pick my favorite project from each month of 2008 and post a recap. I hope you enjoy looking back, and maybe seeing something you hadn't before.

January 2008 (Polished Stone technique I think)

Febuary 2008 (this one was published!)

March 2008 (Shadow Box card)

April 2008 (Tart & Tangy gift set)

May 2008 (a bookmark card)

I'll be back with more!
