I can’t believe this year has flown by so quickly. So much has happened this year on my little ol’ blog and in a couple of months it will be coming up to its one year anniversary already! Totally amazing! I am still in awe that my technically-challenged self was able to figure this whole blog thing out and also cross so many projects off my to-do list this past year.
I want to thank all of you that have been following along with me in this journey so far. I very much appreciate that you take the time to check out my latest projects and leave me your thoughtful comments. Your comments give me the motivation to keep on creating! Everyone likes to know how they are doing, right?
With the New Year almost among us, I have decided to reflect on some of the highlights from my blog over the past year. You may have seen some of these projects already but there may be a few that you may have missed.

Love your Best of 2012. I still plan to copy your books with raised stencils and image transfers. I think that is the neatest thing.
Happy New Year.

Carrie, I’m happy that my timing allowed me to stop in and catch your 2012 highlights! What a great bunch of projects! Of course, your furniture makeovers are awesome as usual and I’m intrigued with the Inkjet transfer and the Photo-to-Canvas projects too (I want to try this!)! Looking forward to seeing what you do for 2013! Blessings, D
