Wow, where has the year gone? It doesn't seem possible that 2013 is coming to an end in less than 3 hours. It seems like the years go by faster the older I get. 2013 was a great year for me though. I got engaged and my best friend moved back home. Many other great things have happened as well, but I don't want to bore you with it all. Anyway, let's discuss the final creation for 2013.
When I think of New Year's, I think of fireworks and the ball being dropped in Time Square so I decided to use the starbrust technique. I cut 2" strips of designer paper and then cut them into triangles. Once I had enough triangles, I ran my overlay through my Xyron so that it had adhesive all over it. I then laid the triangles onto the overlay having them all meet at the same point in middle. After the overlay was covered with designer paper, I cut off the extra paper that hung over the edges. To finish the card, I stamped 3 flowers from the Flower Shop stamp set and 3 flowers from the Petite Petals stamp set and adhered them together with a dimensionals. This card couldn't have turned out better if I tried. This was a great card to end 2013 with. I can't wait to embark on my 365 project this year. The last 6 months were only for practice to see if I could keep up with it. I have proven to myself that I can do this project no matter what kind of day I am having. I hope you have enjoyed seeing all my cards just as much as I have enjoyed creating them. Lastly, I hope everyone has a safe and happy new year. Until next time, happy carding everyone.

Another Happy New Year Card
Since New Year's is right around the corner and there are a few people I want to send card to, I decided to make another New Year's card. Also, Miss Kate Cuttables had a very cut "Happy New Year's" title today so I couldn't resist not using it. Using my Silhouette, I cut out all of the different layers for the title. After it was adhered together, I can the overlay through the Big Shot so the background was embossed stars. Once again, I love how this card turned out. It is super colorful and I hope that it will brighten the person's day who is receiving it. Until next time, happy carding everyone.
