Good morning and Happy New Year’s Eve! I’m happy to be wrapping up my first full calendar year of crafty blogging and I thought it would be fun to revisit some of my favorite cards from 2015!
I decided to pick one card from each month and here they are! You can click on the photo to be taken directly to the original post!
January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
December
As I was looking over the cards I chose I was amused to find that 10 of my 12 favorites contained pink, 11 of the 12 cards featured some metallic element, and 11 of my 12 cards used some type of watercolor medium. I definitely have my card-making preferences! 😉
GIVEAWAY:
And to celebrate the start of the new year I want to give one crafty friend a $25 gift certificate to one of my favorite online stores, Butterfly Reflections Ink! To enter, please leave me a comment and let me know if any of these cards were favorites of yours this year! Or did you have a different card in mind? 🙂 I’d love to know your thoughts!

Gilda (McStamper) says
I love the April card. Thanks for wonderful inspiration all year.
Melissa says
Pick just one is impossible so I’m picking two. January and December. You have such a great eye for color. Happy new year!!!
Celeste Goff says
Happy New Year! I love all of your cards but from this particular selection I love August! The watercolored background is fantastic and I love how you die cut and added a shaker element to the card!
Mary T says
i wish i could choose just one, but cannot decide between May and December….love the combination of colours in both.
Rebecca Yahrling says
Wow, what a very hard choice to make, I’m so torn between several … so I put those months on a piece of paper, folded it, and then chose one: July was the winner. LOL Well, shakers are my very favorite type of card and purple is my favorite color and I tend to use butterflies a lot … so I think this was the right choice. Happy New Year!
Makalah says
So nice to have found you on Instagram this year! All of these are fabulous, but the jellyfish card is so clever and the October Altenew card is amazingly stunning!
Linda E says
My favorite was the fireworks over the cityscapes–but maybe that’s because I was lucky enough to receive that card from you in the mail!!
Chriselle says

The July butterfly card is my favourite, I just love the colors and the way the butterflies flow! Decembers card is a very close second! Really they are all spectacular!
Beth Swisher says
I love the October card with the lovely sympathy sentiment. My mother died a year ago October. This card really speaks to me.
Love your work.
shartl says
They’re all just wonderful but the one for July really grabbed my heart. The combination of the fireworks background with those adorable little critters couldn’t be cuter
Shona Chambers says
Your March card is the one I noticed first in Blogland of yours and its still my favourite. Love the colours and the gold glitter along the edges. Looking forward to seeing new spectacular projects in 2016!!
karenladd says
Love love love your style, and the one that I noticed first was the butterfly card. The bright colors, label maker sentiment and swirly wire makes it so unique!
Shari says
Well, I was torn between April and July, but since Purple is my favorite color, and I LOVE butterflies. July is the winner for me. Although, there were quite a few I love. ???
Amanda says
Love the sunset background on the November card
Christine Canfield says

Hey Jess, ok you know I love all your work so it’s hard to narrow down to just one card. My fav’s off your list are April, July, Oct, Dec. My own fav’s just to name a few are of coarse your golden roses and the peony trio cards. There’s so many more, from your night skies, stunning flowers to your amazing shakers your incredibly talented. I love when my inbox box says All the Sparkle. Two things are for sure, it’ll be beautiful and then I want to try and make it, lol.Thanks for sharing your work and always inspiring.
