These are absolutely beautiful, Donna. Just stunning actually - I love all of them and I can see why they are your favourites. I'm really taken by the last one - just love the bold colours. A wonderful year of creations! And I see you are awarding candy - and it all looks very delicious! You didn't mention posting a pic, but if you'd like me to do that, please let me know and I'd be happy to. Happy New Year, my friend! And thank you for all your support and sweet comments left on my blog - they really mean a lot.
Lovely cards...I missed few of them and I liked the second one most of them :)
Beautiful set of cards. I especially love the first one. Awesome use of dies.
Beautiful cards Donna. My favorite is the snow one like you. Love all the glitter and shimmer. Going to go look up how you did that now.

OMGEE Donna, these are beyond beautiful - they are exquisite, so very very exquisite! Each one is a master piece in it's own right. I must try harder this year! Happy New Year, I hope it is much better and much healthier for you.

Happy New Year Donna.
Thank you for sharing your favourite creations, they really are stunning. Your designs and and attention to detail are wonderful and a real joy to look at.

Fabulously beautiful, Donna. Such fun to go back and review the entire year of creativity, but how difficult to choose only five. :-D I think the twisted easel Christmas wreath is my favorite but I could be swayed for any of the others very easily. :-D
Firstly I want to apologise for my lack of visits of late. Life has been so hectic but should get easier this year as I have stepped down from two challenge teams. I have loved your comments and will return the favour more often from now.
Your chosen cards are stunning Donna. I can see why they are your love and I honestly couldn't pick a favourite. So many fabulous techniques.
Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2014.
Hugs Sharon. x
All your cards are absolutely stunning and I so enjoyed it when you shared them with me. Thanks so much. Happy new year to you as well.
Happy New Year Donna, these are all absolutely fabulous!!

All five are stunning Donna, I love them all. So much detail and with gorgeous colours. I think the top and bottom ones are my favs. Wishing you all the best in 2014 & looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful work. Hugs, Shirleyx
Dear me- your work is amazing! You have quite the eye for colors and card design too! I always love stopping by! Happy New Year!
Can't make my mind up which one I like the best Donna so just going to shut my eyes and pick. Oops my finger is still hovering in the air it doesn't want to make a choice. lol - Love them all.
Keep bringing all your gorgeous makes for us in the coming New Year.
I hope 2014 brings you health, wealth and above all true happiness.
Warm crafty hugs from Shirl x x
They are all stunning Donna, isn't it so hard choosing, I know it was for me.
As they all highlight different techniques it's difficult to choose a favourite, but if I had to I would lean towards the first purely because it's floral.
Wishing you a wonderful 2014 with improved health.

Each of them is a unique work of art! I somehow missed that last one, which happens to be my favorite. Love the colors you used and the beautiful ribbon.
You have such a knack for combining adorable and elegant all into one! Great cards, De!
Donna, all of these are fabulous! Such beautiful details. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year!

Good choices, everyone of those cards is a winner
HAPPY NEEW YEAR

Brilliant selection my friend...have a happy and healthy new 2014. xxxx
You picked some beauties for your year in review. It's fun to look back and see what we created the past year and see how we've changed and grown in our craft. I just love all the sparkling in your creations. Your rolled flowers are so pretty and your copic coloring is gorgeous. Happy New Year. I was you creative moments and sparkling ideas a plenty.
Bear Hugs,

Hello, darlin' lady! What a lovely post this is. I remember many of these and it's quite impossible for me to choose a favorite. Your style is second to none and I love the great care and attention to detail you lavish on every single creation. I hope you're doing well, sweetie, and I wish you a wonderful, happy and healthy New Year!! Don't enter me for blog candy, I just wanted to say hi and I've been thinking of you! Hugs!!
Ooh, Donna, they are all so marvelous. The fourth card seemed new to me, then I remembered that this is the one with difficult to make flower. You know, throw the flower on the floor and run it over with your chair twice. It's time consuming to make it but it looks awesome.
Your top 5 is stunning, although you could add all your cards in that list :)
Hugs,
Eret
It must have been a difficult choice picking 5 favs from your past cards. Each one I would say "Oh this is the best", then I'd see the next one. So much detail & lovely embellishment. I think #1 was my fav until I saw the glammy snowman. Loved all that glitter & sparkle. Again, glad I don't have to really pick a favorite of these because they are all stunning!!! Happy New Year, hope it is a healthy & happy one for you & yours; TFS & hugs - oh yes, some nice candy too!
You're so creative and make such beautiful cards. I wouldn't know how to choose from your cards as they are all so gorgeous and your photography is super. I do have to mention that sparkly snowman as snowmen as favorites of mine.
More! I want more! How in the world did you ever narrow it down to five? I remember being awed by every one of these cards, along with many more. I remember some butterflies, a snowman card, and those cute cars. . . the list goes on and on. I have so enjoyed every moment I've spent here. I know I'm going to see something special when I visit. Thank you for sharing such wonderful works of your heart!
I really don't know how you picked just 5 but each and every one you chose shows your fabulous style so beautifully. Complete with LOTS of sparkle of course - just how they should be :-D
Happy New Year!
Big hugs, Kat xx
Some awesome cards sweetie, they are gorgeous. I've just stumbled across your blog from PoP and am very happy that I have, I look forward to seeing more of your beautiful designs. Hugs xnx
I don't know how you were able to choose only five , all of your creations are stunningly beautiful ! What a fantastic challenge !

Donna, they are all beautiful, but because I am such a sucker for a snowman, I have to go with the frosty snowman. Loved this card when you posted it too.
