This is the time of year when many scrappy bloggers take a look back at what they've created over the past twelve months and decided on a handful of their favorites. It's an exercise I would recommend to anyone in the creative field. It's a way to not only relieve, somewhat the memories behind the creations, but also a chance to see one's creative growth through the months.
Going through my folder I realized that I had completed over 266 projects, including layouts, mini albums, altered items, and cards. I was surprised at the number, that's almost one project per day.
When trying to select my favorites, I found myself a little torn between choosing layouts that I loved, and layouts that others loved. It was really hard to narrow it down to twelve that way. So to make things easier, I decided to keep it simple, and stick only with the layouts that I really loved. Some I chose because of the happy memories the layout invoked, and others I chose simply for the love of the design or the products used.
In no particular order here are my twelve personal favorites for 2012...
The Next Generation
Cutie Pie
Sweet Baby
With All My Heart
Little Man
Passport Photo
Coffee Date
Take Note
Love This Kid
Vegas Bound
Christmas 2011
For The Love Of Coffee
