This card was, oddly enough, one of the favorites on my blog. I made it as a sympathy card - something I struggle with - and everyone who saw it really loved it. It is also the one and only project to be featured on Tiffany Bauer's Crafty Picks HERE. I was so proud!
Although I started my papercrafting journey as a scrapbooker, I don't seem to have the time to do a lot of it now - too many cards to make! I was so happy when I was asked to do a scrapbook page for one of my classes, and this is what I came up with (original layout sketch by Jennifer Priest). This nautical suite was one of my favorites from Stampin' Up! this year. 
I held my first few classes at my local Donut House - it was great! Close to my home, no stairs, great munchies...but alas, I had to make way for the sports teams so I moved my classes to the Coeur d'Alene Great Floors. This was the thank you gift I made for Donut House. Thank you, Hayden Donut House!
I made this card on commission - I was in a rush, so I CASE'd one I found on Splitcoast. I didn't change very much, but with the texture, laying and (of course) purple, this is one of my all-time favorite cards.
I made this birthday card for my father-in-law this year. I think it is my favorite masculine card to date - I love the color combo and the clean lines. Fab!
I make favors for every class, but these were some of my all-time favorites. I was trying to showcase all the products from the Occasions Mini this past spring...and I think I accomplished that. :)
More class favors. I made a pair of these for each of the suites in the Occasions Mini this past spring - these were my favorites. I just love the Adornments Roses! When they showed up recently in the Clearance Rack Blitz for such an amazing price, I squirreled away fi....wait, I don't want to share that or you will think I'm crazy. Lets just say several tubs, shall we? ;-D
This was another commission - a baby boy shadow box. I LOVE making shadow boxes, and they make such great gifts!
One Sheet Wonder card boxes...using my very own template. Love it! It's a perfect way to feed my bow obsession. And my First Edition Designer Series Paper addiction.
I designed this card for my fun folds class, and it was monstrously well received. I made a few extra and sold them on Etsy and locally almost immediately. Such a fun card! I love that when you open it the butterfly flaps it's wings. :)
Ah, the French Shoe. I love making shoes, although they often take more time than I can allot! I sent this one to a new home as a door prize, but I really should make myself one. :)
I couldn't find the black shadow box on my blog, so maybe this is the first time I've shared it! I know I shared the Cherry Cobbler and the Island Indigo one...Anyway, the black was MY favorite, although not my class attendees favorite. I made extras of these and gave them away as gifts. They make a great wedding gift!
And finally, we come to the end of my Best of 2011 post. (collective sigh of relief). This advent calendar - and it's fifteen fellows - consumed my last two months. People loved them! I held two classes and sold a bunch of finished ones. Still have two left, if anyone wants them. :) $30 + $14 Priority Shipping. Never too early to think of next year!So that's it. Did I pick your favorites from the last year? I hope so. :)
I'll have my January newsletter ready to go tomorrow, with a 2012 class list. A sneaky peek of said list is on my Stampin' Up! website if you can't wait!
