Happy New Years Eve ~ Welcome 2022!
As I have done the past few years, I am going to take a look back at my creations for 2021, this last day before the new year. Here is my collection of my 12 favorite cards of the year--one for each month. If you want to see the original post with the details on the card, please click on the month above the card and it will take you to the post.

I hope you too have enjoyed my look back on the cards of 2021. I posted on 181 days this past year. That is the lowest number of days since 2012. I have posted over 200 every year for the past 8 years. I am not sure why my numbers were so low as I was not traveling or having fun away from home! But, I do know my numbers for 2022 will probably will be in the same range or even lower as I am cutting back on some of my groups. There will not be a Ready, Set, Go or Stamp What or 24 Hour Blueprint challenge in 2022. But, the 3 Musketeers, One Plus Twelve, Hot Mess and Double Duty will continue. There are also three groups from SCS where I will participate in challenges. I am cutting back a bit as I plan to start quilting more! Not a New Year Resolution--just a plan!
I am adding a couple of personal stamping challenges for 2022 and highlighting some companies that I own a boatload of stamps. Stampin' Up Sundays and Taylored Expressions Tuesdays will debut along with Floral Fridays. These posts will happen at least once a month--hoping for two times every month! I will continue with my gnome challenge as I have more to use--they are so dang cute!
I hope you have a great start to 2022! Make it better than 2020 and 2021-and that should not be hard! But, that is what I said in my post last year and I sure was wrong about that!
Barb, your faves of 2021 are definitely fave-worthy! Impressive! I also loved reading about the three new series you'll be starting in 2022. I'll be watching for Stampin UP Sunday, Taylored Expressions Tuesday, an Floral Friday!
