My favorite 12

As the year draws to a close I decided to do as many others are and share my favorites of the year. This was tough. These are in no top order, just going back from the first month I started scrapping this year.

I like this layout because of the colors and mixture of patterns. This layout started my love of the color Navy. lol 

*********

I like the bold blacks with the softer colors. This layout incorporates my favorite techniques and colors.

This one just speaks to my heart. Ashlyn was obsessed with helping the cat eat when she was a baby. I really like the cut pp as well as the mixture of patterns and colors on this layout.

I really like the colors and mixture of patterns on this card. All scraps- even better. 

**********

I like this layout because it is so different than my usual style, yet it still contains elements that are me. This layout was a challenge for me, but I am thrilled with the end result. This layout represents the fact that Ashlyn's health was in a much better place than it had been in years. She was able to enjoy the "here & now" for awhile. :)

**********

Another layout that really grabs my heart because Ashlyn was feeling healthy enough to do something as simple as play in the wading pool. This was a big deal. I love how bold and fun this layout is and the misting is one of my favorite parts about it. 

**********

I just really like how this one turned out. 

**********

I really love these photos of Sklyar. The colors and mix of prints are great together and I especially love the banner. I cannot believe this girl graduates in about 6 months. 

**********

I absolutely love how this layout turned out! This is one of my favorite pictures of Moose when we first got him. I am so not a gold person, but this layout made my dislike of gold turn into a wow! I need more gold! I really like the elements and overall design of this one. 

**********

This photo speaks volumes to me. It is strong and fierce, yet soft and sweet at the same time. I was so blessed to capture this in an image. This girl is a warrior. She is strong and brave and makes me a better person. I am blessed. <3 p="">

***********

This is a busy layout, but my eye is still drawn to the sweet photo. I really enjoy mixing patterns- I may not always be effective, but sometimes you just have to try. 

**********

These photos of Skylar crack me up. I really like the colors, string and wooden accents on this one. 

Thanks for scrolling through. I like to mix things up and try new things, however there is always one of my "signature" elements on each project- be it a butterfly, twine bow, machine stitching, distressing or mist. These are things that make me happy. :) 

If you have a top favorites, please let me know so I can take some time to look at your favorites! 

Keep on scrappin'!
