This week, I'm excited to be co-hosting the 2023 Year in Review blog hop where I and other co-hosts share our favourite papercraft creations of 2023 and we would be delighted if you join us!
Here is a list of my co-hosts and I know they'd appreciate your visit and feedback!
Alicia - Golden Goddess DesignsDebbie - Secrets to StampingDiane - Nellie's NestEllie - Ellibelle's CornerFrancesca - Percorsi di FantasiaHelen - Made by HelenJoanne - My Slices of LifeLillian - Lillian's Crafting BlogTee - The Paper Layer
Or you can create your own "year in review" post and link it up below! The linky tool will remain open for a week - plenty of time to review your creative year and pick one or more of your favourite papercraft projects to share!
I decided to make it easier for myself and chose a favourite from each month, but you might like to just pick your favourite project of 2023 or your favourite top 5 or 10! There are no rules other than that they are papercrafts projects and that they are your own work (not favourites you have come across online through the year)! Any products and all styles are welcome!
These are my favourites for 2023, listed by month - you'll find a link below each photo to their blog post in case you'd like to find out a little bit more about what was used and how (and sometimes why) they came about!

Well done if you made it this far because I'm giving away two die sets (see below) as a small prize to one lucky commenter on this post for the duration of the link up - and if you're a follower I'll put your name in the hat twice! I'll also post anywhere in the world!
Well that about wraps up 2023 for me. I hope you enjoyed the recap of my creative year and hope you find some time to recap your creative year and play along with us.
Wishing you and your loved ones health, happiness and good fortune in 2024!

Kate, absolutely amazing cards! I can't even begin, the bird, the kinetic, the long hair! I love them ALL! And what an amazing prize! Thanks for offering it up and thanks for hopping, it's been a lot of fun. Happy New Year.

What a wonderful collection of cards from this year 2023! I'm especially fond of the first one with all those snippets of paper creating the background. It's one of my favorite techniques and yours turned out just beautiful with those pretty pastel colored strips of paper. Happy New Year to you in 2024, and happy crafting as well!
ReplyDeleteJanuary is my favorite. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI too find it easier to select one each month although that was a bit of a challenge too in some months. Love your selections, each one so beautifully made and love that there is a mix of masculine and feminine cards. It would be hard to select just one but if I had to it might be the quilt card. What a great way to use up all those pretty papers!
ReplyDeleteSo happy you joined in the hop!!
Happy New Year!!
Beautiful and creative cards, I love them all but that January one sure has caught my eye with all those pretty paper scraps, it's perfection!! The shoe one is fabulously fun too, but like I said all are great!! Have a Happy New Year!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed looking at your cards from this year.
ReplyDeleteYou have some really lovely cards here; I adore that scrapped quilt card. I'm always on the lookout for ways to use up my scraps. That peacock card is so pretty too.
ReplyDeleteLove the beautiful red Poppy's! And your slider cards are just brilliant! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards!!! My favorites are June and November! Happy New Year
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, your cards are gorgeous, Kate! There's no way to pick my favorite from this fabulous collection - love them all! The quilted card looks like a labor of love and is such a great way to play with our neverending pile of scraps. It's so wonderful to be part of this blog hop with you. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards - love the poppies and the Christmas pudding!
ReplyDeleteGreat to join in with the review this year and see everyone's favourites.
