I can see why these are some of your favorites! Wonderful cards! We welcomed a new puppy into our home in 2016! He is our first ever boy dog and he is a ball full of energy and an absolutely wonderful pup to have in our lives. We already had our beautiful Morgan, a chocolate lab, and she loves having her brother Wyatt, a black lab, around to play!

The most positive crafty thing that happened to me in 2016 was being asked to host a challenge once a month over at StampTV. I'm looking forward to continue growing as a card maker throughout 2017.

We went to visit our son at his Air Force base to meet his girlfriend and we were surprised to find out he was getting engaged. Then we found out they were expecting, so we found out that we are going to be grandparents in 2017. So, lots of blessings to look forward to....

Wow your cards are AMAZING! Well one positive thing that happened to me is that my girl dog that I show got her first Major this past year. And now she has enough points to win her Championship with AKC with just one more major! SO I am really hoping to finish her Championship this year!

In 2016 I retired after 31 years with state government. In 2017 I would like to continue volunteering my time to worthy causes and be more timely with my card exchange projects. Happy 2017!

Your colouring technique is amazing! Looking forward to seeing more of your projects. The positive highlight of 2016 for my family was moving to a new place. Still have tons to do, but we love it!
Posted by: Olessya K | Thursday, January 05, 2017 at 07:05 PM
I'm a little late, but wanted to say these are fabulous works of art!
I had a blast crafting in 2016 and even had a couple of my cards noticed by the manufacturers. I'm looking forward to doing more this year - especially 3d and interactive cards and learning to watercolor.
