Happy New Year and welcome to my blog! Thanks to Operation Write Home for sponsoring this event where card makers take a look back and share their favorite cards. I hope you enjoy seeing these cards I made. I can't wait to hop around to other blogs to see all the gorgeous creations!
1. My first card is very special to me. I made it for the arrival of my first grandchild, Benjamin, born to my daughter-in-law, Lori, and son, Brian, on October 7th!

Great variety of cards. Love the hero ones.
Happy New Year Sherry and congrats on your precious Ben! He is a beauty and lucky to have you as his grandmother! I always love looking at your cards- we own a lot of the same stamps so I love to see what you do with them! Gotta love MFT PI stamps!
Happy New Year Sherry! thank you for sharing your best of 2014 cards with us!
Sherry...great group of cards...I always love your vintage cards! Your Ciara card is too sweet! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for sharing your cards Sherry, they are all great, I can see why they are your favorites. Of course I love the penguin card made for your grand baby. Keep making those cards. :)
Well first of all, congrats on being a grandma! There is nothing better! Beautiful cards and your copic coloring is fantastic! Happy New Year to you and your family!
You have such a wonderful variety of cards here and each is cuter or more clever than the next. I love all the textures and embellishments you used. Thanks for sharing!
What an awesome selection of your cards ! Your attention to detail is perfect: pearls on the necklace of the lady in the kitchen is a great example. Congrats on the grandson :)
Hi Sherry! First of all congratulations on being a Grandmother! Your cards are all gorgeous - I love your vintage styled ones the best! Happy New Year to you!
Happy New Year, Sherry! Bet you can't wait to spoil that new grandbaby in the new year.
Love your cards! Yep, it looks like you aced Sandy's coloring class. That sweet Ciara card sure did bring a bittersweet smile to my face.
Thanks for visiting W2SB and leaving such a nice comment. Hope you will find time to play along.
Have a wonderfully crafty 2015. And, give that little one an extra kiss from me. :)
Cute cards and an even cuter grandbaby!
Love your cards, especially the robot and the snorkeling one!
This is a terrific collection! So many different styles. My favorite is the little girl with the pumpkin.
Beautiful cards! You do some great image coloring on them. I can tell you put a lot of time into them. Happy New Year!!
I too LOVED playing with paper dolls as a girl... what a great memory! And I too became a first time grandma this year. I love your cards. Very Detailed. I think my favorite is the little girl with the umbrella. Not only because it was posted on my birthday but because the color choices are perfect and that image is a doll...
A great collection of cards! Lots of great masculine cards. I love the Penguine and What a Guy cards.
Sherry, it's always a treat to visit your blog! Lucky you to have been able to attend one of Sandy's classes. Your coloring skills are awesome! Best wishes to you for a wonderful 2015!
I like your tag cards and your paper piecing! You've done some wonderful cards this year! Great work!
love the vintage touch, but the What a Guy/Father's Day? card is my favorite. Thanks for Sharing.
Sherry, your cards are always fabulous! You do such beautiful vintage cards. The lil Hambo guy in the innertube sure made me smile!
Sherry, your cards are always so wonderful! I especially love the vintage cards and the What a Guy card! They are so well thought out and your creativity is so much fun to see!
Your cards are all just delightful in so many ways! I'm especially fond of the first one with that heart banner! Cute! Congrats Grandma! Ben is precious, and I really like that good old fashioned name too!
