Goodbye 2012 - Hello 2013
I don't normally do New year Resolutions or 'soul searching' stuff - but want to take a few minutes of your time to look back on some memories of the year just drawing to a close.
The big highlight was meeting lovely fellow crafters at the WOYWW crop in October.
The lady behind it all (on the left) - the lovely Julia. Just as bubbly and wonderful in real life as she is on her blog. It was wonderful to meet you (and Jan, too, and all the others) Thanks for some LOVELY memories.
my journal page commemorating the day.
2012 saw me 'embrace' my journal more - here are some of my favourite pages. I think I've blogged all of these before, during the year. (I just can't find all the links!) This was one I prepped for a 'lesson' during the Crafty Boots DT play day - another major highlight.
Lots of you were kind enough to leave me lovely comments about this page, for which I thank you! I think this is my favourite of them all.
I didn't ONLY play in my journal this year, honest! I was quote fond of this altered piece that I made earlier in December..
I also spent lots of time playing with Paperartsy Fresco paints and stencils - this is a 5x7 canvas
I still found time for tags!
As I mentioned, the Crafty Boots Design Team also had a get together this year, which was another huge highlight, and my lovely friend Gabrielleput up with me put me up for the weekend - it was so lovely to meet her again (we met through our blogs and through twitter and met for the first time in 2011) - Gabrielle, your friendship means the world to me, thank you for your support and love this year, it has kept me going!! (some of you know things have been a bit tough at work to say the least and 2013 will see me searching for a new job.....) Thanks need to go to lots more of you too, with your generosity and encouragement; thank you for taking the time to read my blog and Happy New Year to you all!
