Hello Friends and a Happy New Year to you. I wanted to say thanks to you for making 2011 a great year in card making for me. I can’t express enough how grateful I am for your visits to my blog. There are so many awesome blogs on the net and I feel so lucky that you choose to visit me here. I would love to get some of your feedback if you have a minute. Do you know what you might be looking for in 2012?? Perhaps some more elegant cards, or maybe cute, simple, more coloring, more tutorials, Utube videos?? etc. Below I used “Inklinkz” to share some of my favorite cards that I created in 2011 ….. maybe it will give an idea of what you would like to see on my blog in 2012?? Any advice??
My wish for you this year is best of health, happiness and love in your life. Sincere thanks and many hugs, Kathy
P.S. Just click on any card to be directed to that particular post with more info. 🙂

Here is a card made with my Tuesday Tipster
$30 giveaway to celebrate the new Inlinkz
Jennifer McGuire’s Card Drive
Kathy, I love 4-11-11 post of the blooming flowers. That was a fantastic tutorial. Thanks for the year in review.
Hi Kathy
I’m new to your blog, just found you recently and you are on the top of my blogs to check out daily. You’re right there are hundreds of blogs out there, but when you find a great blog like yours, how can you not come back. I like your clean cut designing, color combination and great layout. You are truly an artist! You Tube videos would have to be my number one request and my second how best to color with Copic markers … I like that you posted all your 2011 cards for a full year in review, nice idea. Thank you for your sharing your talent and how to’s …
Happy New Year 2012
Hi Kathy! I, for one, love when you create flower cards, and I’m sooo glad you’re doing videos now! It’s been a wonderful year, visiting your blog and viewing your amazing talent! I’m really looking forward to what you have in store for us in 2012 – Happy New Year to you, and hugs too! 🙂
I LOVE everything you do Kathy. I get so many ideas and inspiration from visiting. Thanks for sharing your craft with us all. May 2012 continue to inspire you to inspire me.
I love your videos and coloring tips. I learn so much from you.
Kathy your cards truly are so beautiful! I would love to see some more videos – how you colour and start to finish of your cards. Happy New Year to you, I hope 2012 is wonderful for you and your family 🙂
I get very excited when you do turtorials and especially coloring with Copics. I feel lucky to learn from you.
And I loooove the new videos!
Your cards are works of art; I would buy them if you sold them!
Lots of love to you for 2012!
Hi Kathy!! Happy new year to you and your family!!
Your creations and cards are definitely masterpiece! each of them with the bright colors makes me amazzzeeddd!! your coloring technique always inspiresme ! looking forward to see more of your cards in 2012!!
I love tutorials, giveaways, & videos! So, more of the same for you! My fave cards of yours are ones where you create cute scenes like the Penny Black stamps 😉
Thanks for all your great work – I’m so glad I found your blog and I recommend you to so many of my stamping friends.
I too am so happy that you’ve started to make video tutorials as I learn so much from actually seeing things being done. I hope this doesn’t sound silly, but I’d love to see your mistakes (if you make any!!) I just seem to give up once I’ve mucked things up as I don’t think it’s any good, but seeing how you’d get around a mistake with coloring, cutting or whatever would be really beneficial for me.
Anyway, whatever you do I’ll be sure to continue to check your blog daily as it’s my favorite!
Happy New Year Kathy! I’m looking forward to seeing another year with your creations 🙂 Your colour combinations are always stunning, they are so bright and gorgeous!
What a fun way to showcase your 2011 cards!! Looks so pretty seeing all that gorgeous eye candy all in a row! Just keep on with what you have been doing — Excellent job!
Your post prompted me to look back & see when I “found” you – it was around February last year & I must admit that since then you have taught me so much & my love for Penny Black stamps has grown. I know you give the white gel pen details but I have tried for months to find it in the UK so my request for a tutorial would be on what to look for in a white gel pen – the type of thickness – fine, medium etc….. & some alternatives too – I have the Inkssentials white & the Pergamano white . Also a tutorial on adding white dots & how to determine placement (or is it just how you feel?) I love the effect & had to go back & look at your second card with the bird – absolutely glorious. I learn so much from my visits here so a hearty thank you for all your input.

Beautiful collection! Love all the vibrant colors.
How fun it is to look at your cards again from this year. They are so detailed that each time I look at them I notice and appreciate something new.
I think that the variety that you did this year is just right. Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

i only recently found your blog but it didn’t take long for it to become a ritual to check it out. i don’t have any Copics, or anything like them, would love more tutorials on using reg markers, elegant cards and masculine cards which always through me into the depths of despair. keep it up, love what you are doing. and thaks so much for being willing to share
I love your blog! Your cards always blow me away with all the gorgeous, intense color and your tutorials are awesome. I made the Copic cans from your tutorial and LOVE them! Happy New Year!
Oh my goodness, Kathy – just looking through your ‘year in review’ takes my breath away! Your talent initially inspired me to pick up my Copics and color and I just love seeing that in your creations-lots and lots of color and coloring! 🙂 You never ever disappoint me and I still get excited when I see your posts. I can’t wait to be awed by your new creations in 2012!
always love your coloring and tutorials on how to achieve the same looks–and videos are a great way to do that. Happy 2012!
hi Kathy, an amazing stunning set of cards. I love them all. Whatever you are able to share, It is truly appreciated as I appreciate the time and effort that goes into them. Since Distress Inks is new to me, I have enjoyed your cards with Distress Inks and your techniques with them. And the colours you use and combine with. I love the style of your cards. They stand out, and you are an super talented crafter. And i always look forward to your next post. Your cards always cease to amaze me and inspire me. x

Wow Kathy!
Such beautiful cards…
Can’t wait to see you in the spring! 🙂
Love your card which has intense colour, so eye-catching, clean and subject focus , the placement of image on various die-cuts and the bright white dot that is so very unique.
I like to learn how you decide on where to white-dot the image, more photos taken from different angle (especially those card which has some 3d effect etc..) and hope to continue seeing clean and simple quick card.
Thanks for all the wonderful sharing on the blog, you are simply marvellous!

Kathy, I would love to see anything you create on your blog. Not much help I know but I love reading how you create your cards and use your stamps.
Hi Kathy, I love your whimsical style (even your elegant cards have a sense of whimsy) and they all inspire me. I would like to see more videos, I love seeing how you create your magic! Hugs and blessings for a fabulous 2012!

WOW! Kathy what an amazing selection of cards, or should I say master pieces. How does one choose a favourite, I for one can’t they are all absolutely stunning. I love that you describe how each card comes together and list what you have used. I gain a lot of inspiration from your cards and also your tutorials and have learnt how to do things in a better way!
Thanks for the inspiration.
Love Sheila x
Hi Kathy, love your blog….If I could make a suggestion it would be to not change a thing! I love how all your cards are different and some are easy, some are challenging. I also love your tutorails- you make it all look so simple (but I must admit I still struggle a little:0) keep up the awesome blog…stay safe and well in 2012 XOX Tania
Happy New Year Kathy! Sorry i’m now trying to catch up with blogs. I hardly posted on my blog, and hadn’t had time for visiting others, not with Hanukkah, Christmas & Thanksgiving in December party (why MAN decides to do that in DECEMBER!:-( ), and moving. That’s too much in December! lol I’m moving again, so if you dont’ read my comment, it’s because of that. wow, i checked your cards from 2011. Even i “followed” you, it’s nice my memory to be refreshed & get inspired! I wish you ANOTHER AMAZING YEAR, KATHY! 🙂
