Papercrafters Year in Review 2024 Blog Hop and Linky Party - Come Join Us!!!

Happy Monday and welcome!




Today a group of crafters and I are hosting a blog hop where we share our favorite creations of 2024, the Papercrafters Year in Review hop. We hope you'll hop along with us and you are invited to create your own Year in Review post and then link up with us. We would love to see YOUR favorite creations of 2024 too!! You can choose a monthly favorite, or a Top 10, Top 5, favorite Christmas cards of 2024 etc. - it's is all up to you. The most important thing to remember is, that these have to be selected from your own creations, not favorites you found online.

The linky tool is at the end of this post and you may also find it on most of the co-hosts blogs. It will stay open until January 5th 11:59pm Central time.

I am always excited to look back at my creations of the year as I do tend to forget what cards I made and I am always curious to see which one of my creations makes this list :) As it's always hard for me to choose, I usually select one favorite card per month and that is what I did this year too (or at least I tried to stick with one). I linked back to the original posts in case you want to find out more about each project.

January

also January (it was a tie!!)

February

March

April

May

June

July

August

September

October

November

December

Silhouette stamps seem to have been a favorite and I loved getting inky. Happy to still see some "cute" cards among my favorites although I feel like I haven't made as many this past year and they used to be my favorites to make once upon a time. I'm surprised to see a couple of cards with dies as focal points made my favorites list this year :)  Although have to admit I only made 4 cards in December so that month wasn't easy to choose, however I so love that cute die set!! Maybe I'll try it with a different color scheme next time.

Vicki said...

Spectacular cards, Ellie! I have to say the January is my absolute favorite. I love the soft colors and silhouette images. But, they are all gorgeous. Thanks for letting me play along with this blog hop.

Wonderful selection of cards Ellie, so much variety, beautiful stamps, layouts and fabulous inky techniques. It’s almost impossible to pick a favourite, but if I had to it would be the first January card … love the Lavinia trees in conjunction with the A&C pheasants and the beautiful soft background xx

Debbie Mageed said...

Oh, Ellie, I wish I could see your gorgeous cards in person! Your depth of color and beautiful images are so incredible! I will always be in awe of your works of art. Pick a favorite?! Way too difficult! But February and November are both stunning so I'd have to pick them both. Thank you so much for getting this blog hop organized. I look forward to it every year. Happy New Year!

February and November's winter scenes are my favorites! Love the way you captured the cold, crisp snowy days!

A lovely selection Ellie, it's always nice to look back and sometimes see one you missed (I think that was July for me).
