My Top Ten Crafty Creations of 2010.

I have been inspired, no end, by the great many fantastic cards I have seen whilst joyously strolling through the craftier coners of the blogosphere today.  Good Golly, are you folks talented!   Inspired so, I was, that I took a peek into my own 2010 papercraft creations and thought I too would share ten of my favorites from 2010.  It was fun to reminisce about my papercrafting journey over the year and the inspirations behind why I created them.  Some cards where criminally simple and a bit quirky (read: strange) and others had far more "bits" then they probably should have in order not to defy convention. While many were born out of the more recent holiday seasons so it would seem.  All that to say is, I had a marvelous year of crafting and I am totally chomping at the bit to get stuck in for 2011.  So, let's get this party started!

















C'est Tout!  Thanks so much allowing me the opportunity to share my Top Ten (Okay, okay, I'm busted!) My Top Eleven!  ...And of course,  for stopping by.

Wow, lots of great cards here Jen. My favorites were the Halloween eyeballs and the Christmas Cheer card. You used lots of different textures and embellishments on your cards. I think that makes for very interesting cards. Great job on the Top Ten.
