Top 12 Projects

I have noticed a lot of top 10's. Top 10 cards, I am not the best card maker out there so I skipped that one. Top 10 layouts, I don't even think that I had made 10 layouts this year, sad I know.
So I came up with my Top 10 Projects that I had done this year. Well actually it was hard to only pick 10 so I did 12.
Okay the first picture is actually 2 projects but they are both gift card holders so I put them together, my blog... my rules, LOL.

So here is my 1st one. These are in no particular order.
The wallet and purse gift card holder. I just think these are so adorable.
Post it Note Holders. Not only are the practical they are really pretty too.
My Halloween Quilted Wall Panel. This was quilted to the max. I had trouble stopping the quilting on here. I also made the witches broom for the hanger.
My letter for the Halloween Letter Banner Swap. I was late doing this as I not only forgot I signed up, but no one contacted me with when they were to be done. Plus my dad passed away and this totally slipped my mind. Luckily I did make these and everyone received them in plenty of time before Halloween. Here is the video.
This helped me get back into crafting.
My favourite mini. I made this for my baby nephew Tom. I made this from scratch. I cut the individual pages and letters. It was a lot of work, but I so love how it turned out. Here is the video of how I did it and if you search you can see the finished pages on my channel. Baby Tom's book.

I crocheted these butterflies and flowers every weekend on our drive to and from our camp/cottage. I love working with wool.

This is my Vintage Mini album I made for a fellow blogger, Kate. I was in a swap that Tanya put on. I am so surprised and overwhelmed by all the comments and praise I received for this album. I was so nervous in sending this away. You always want the person who receives it love it as much as you do.

You can see the whole album Here.

This purse is so cool. It has pockets all along the inside of the bag. I love compartments. And because I made it I made the pockets to fit specific things. Like my tiny camera can fit in one of the pockets, my lip gloss can fit in the tiny pocket and my cell phone can fit in the front pocket. This is the second purse I made like this one.

I had so much fun making this mini, mini pink paper bag album. I made it during the winter Olympics. I also made all the embellishments and it was so fun. Mind you my living room looked like a craft bomb went off in it. You can check out the whole album on my channel.
This is the 1st mini album that I had ever made. It is also a paper bag mini album. Mind you not as small as the pink one. I don't have a picture of the completed front of the album. Not only is this my first mini, it was also the first project I did and put on my YouTube channel. Thanks Ashley, she encouraged me to start my YouTube channel.

You can see the completed mini Here.

I had fun making these tiny 3x3 albums out of one sheet of 12x12 paper. Considering how small they are you can fit a lot in these. You can see my tutorial here.
I made these reading journals with the help of my daughter Ashley. I really enjoy reading and want to keep a record of my books. So I figured out the measurements and where I would need to bind it, and got my brilliant daughter to make me a pattern for the inside pages. I wanted it so I could put 6 pages on one sheet of 8.5x11 cardstock and so when I cut them out it would be perfect. She Did It!!!

I have made quite a few of these, but would you believe I haven't filled mine in yet. I take pictures of all my books to put on the opposite page, but haven't done it yet.

So there you have it. 12 of my favourite projects of 2010. What is your favourite project?
