Favorite projects!

Hi bloggers...
I wanted to share a few of my favorite project I did throughout the year. 
On the top of my list is the 12 Tags of Christmas with Tim Holtz
I always make the tags but this year I wanted to put a new spin on it. 
The configuration tray makes a wonderful display for Christmas.

Halloween is my favorite holiday and ATC's are a great way to show your spirit. 
They are quick and fun to make. 

Art From the Heart had a blog hop for their 10th birthday. 
For the hop I created this piece and lit the candle in Dyan's honor. 

I have a love for birds and this box is a great way to display all things nature. 
Just imagine the possibilities.

Take time to be creative!
It's good for the soul!

Happy New Year!

All of your creations are wonderful, but I especially love what you did with the tags this year. Last year I put my finished tags in an album, but I love the idea of the display which can be used year after year. I just may "borrow" that for next year's 12 tags.
Thanks for sharing!

Què hi tinc jo a veure, digueu-me homes,
amb les espases i les batalles?
L’única estrella que prenc per guia
és la del gaudi i de la música.
Feliç any 2012 !!
