My favorite cards of 2012

So last year I saw someone post their favorite cards of the year.  I enjoyed it so much that I decided to do it again this year.  I've been fortunate enough to have some fabulous guest designers this year on my blog - but I'm only going to include my own cards that I made...  and why they're my favorites.  These are in chronological order...

1) We have a friend we tease about being the cookie monster - and I had bought the stickers like a year in advance...  I love the birthday stickers and think its just fun...

 

2) I love Bo Bunny paper - and I love the ribbon and the shape.  I even fussy cut out the flower on top...  This paper made several appearances this year... :)

 

3) I love these stamps because they're so stinking cute, and the fun surprise in the inside of the card is super cool!

 

 4. Easy-peasy card made with my Cameo.  Love how easy it was and how cute the card is!

 

5) Card with matching cupcake holder... I think the paper is super cute and the ruffle is adorable!

 

6) I love the flower.  I so love making ribbon flowers with Glubers, and this time I colored the ribbon with my copics.  Too fun!

 

7) I haven't made a lot of cooking/male cards and I just like the style of this one.  Doesn't hurt that the paper is great...

 

8) I made this for a friend that loves wine (I can't get the picture to rotate)...same paper as above but with cool sage ruffle ribbon and a super cool wine image...

 

9) I really like the letter stickers which I put metallic flakes on....

 

10) Bo Bunny Paper, asian inspired.  Enough said.  in fact, this card hasn't made it to it's intended recipient yet.  It's still in my craft room.  That's how I know I like it... :)

 

11) I was so happy to have figured out how to use the stamps & dies that go together (and I like the style of this card)...

12) I pretty much like anything that has leaves on it, and like that I print & cut these from my Cameo...

 

13) How can you not love the paper, and most importantly this super cute stamp????  I saw it & had to have it!

OK, so I went a little over my 10, but these are my all time favorites for the year.  Did you do a post with your favorite cards?  I'd love to see it :)  You can comment below with the link, or you can post it on my facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/CraftyCardGallery
