2013 Year In Review

Bet you thought you were done seeing Year In Review posts, didn't you? Hahaha!

Let me sneak one in. I wasn't going to do a post, but I remembered when I did the 2012 Year in Review how fun it was to go back through your own projects and pick your favorites. It's interesting to see what things you were into (topics, formats, colors, techniques, manufacturers, etc.) and how that's evolved over the year.

Last year I picked a highlight from each month. This year I just went with 14 (2013 + 1 for good luck) because I discovered that I didn't really post a whole lot of creative things over the summer. Most of the things I like come from Jan/Fab/Mar and then December.

 If you'd like to see any of the original posts, just click on the image.

So long 2013, happy 2014!

  25. Hopped over from Catered Crop where I've just linked up too... Fabulous, fresh, inventive work - I love the pinecone, and the snowman in a jar, but I think my favourite is that wonderful button mobile baby card - lovely!
