Distressed and Vintage
As the year draws to a close, I leave you with this Irish blessing:
May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire
Thank you so much for allowing me into your homes and into your hearts this past year, as I shared my cards and my furbabies with you. Here is to a healthy, happy and creative 2014 for us all. Until next time…
I am playing catch-up – sooooo enjoy all of your fabulous creations…and these, like so many others, take my breath away! TFS~
Happy New Year, Ann! What fun to review those cards again. Love them all but you know just how much I love that Joyful Christmas!!!
All these are just so beautiful Ann! I love seeing them again but some how I missed the Praying Hands Card! That card just blows me away! It’s absolutely beautiful!
May you have a truly blessed happy & healthy new year Ann. Looking forward to another year of beautiful creations.
Your attention to detail is what makes your cards so special! Extraordinary talent!
Happy New Year! Thanks for continuing to share your projects, as well as your pictures and stories about your furbabies! – Lisa
I love that you, and others, do these year in review posts. As an email follower of your blog, I recognize most of these. I missed the beautiful By The Tide card, though, and I have that set. You’ve inspired me to try my own version.
Beautiful cards, Ann! *Love* your style. Thanks so much for sharing.
Warmest wishes to you and yours for much happiness in the New Year!
I love them all! Happy New Year!
All of your cards are beautiful. I love the Joyful Christmas Wishes done in the vintage style. TFS

These are my very favorites of 2013! Just AMAZING!
Such beauty! Love the special Schach details you give each and every card. Happy new year Ann!
You know these are my favorite styles, Ann…and you certainly made them shine! I am in love with the ice skaters on the pond….such a clever design and such beautiful texture and dimension. Your work is so inspirational. I wish you a very Happy New Year and may 2014 be a year of dreams come true for you. Blessings!
Sorry – this time I just can’t choose a favorite, they’re all just too amazing!
All beautiful! By the tide is my favorite! Great way to welcome in 2014!
Happy New Years to you Ann and your family.
Thanks for the recap of all your lovely cards.
Beautiful, beautiful cards. I know favorites are hard to choose, but I really love the Christmas Lodge card.
Thank you for sharing your amazing creativity.
Happy New Year!
