Today I'm very excited to be joining the Papercrafters' Year in Review 2023 Hop.
It's been organised by the wonderful Ellie and it's been a great opportunity to look back on what I've made during the year.
I decided to pick a favourite from each month of the year so here are my choices with links back to the original blog post:
January
My first card for the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge using 'Snowdrop Corners' from Clearly Besotted - my blog post is here.

This card was for the Sparkles Challenge using the 'Sailor Teddy' digi stamp and digi paper - my blog post is here.

So difficult to pick a favorite, but I love the August pup! Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful assortment of yor favorite cards, Helen. Each one beautifully designed with a great focus on the images. Hard to select a favorite but if I absolutely had to it would have to be the poppy card as I love them, but closely followed by your November card with the pretty girly image.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you joined in this year!! I agree, it's such a great way to look back at what we created over the last 12 months! And even years later I enjoy clicking on the year in review posts occasionally.
Happy New Year!!
