Happy New Year, Favorite Card, and a Thank you!!

I think this year has been the fastest year for me! I had such a wonderful 2011 and I am fully ready to take on 2012!

I served on three Design Teams, posted over 600 posts and have loved every minute of it! I want to send a special Thank You to all my friends that take the time to stop by and leave me such sweet comments! I truly appreciate every single one of them! I will be staying on with the Creative Cutter Room as Design Team Coordinator and will serve another term with Docerela Creations! I hope you will join us with all the up coming challenges we will be having!

Here is my favorite project from 2011:

My Tim Holtzified Frame

    You did Tim Holtz proud on the frame. Like the Butterflies on the card. Not sure what clear embossing with Distress Ink is so would like to know more. Did you read my comment on an earlier post of yours about you winning at Creative Cutter Room?
