Happy New Year! I took an unintentional break from blogging for most of December. The business of the holidays turned me into a little bit of a frazzled nut case. Now that things are slowing down a bit, I'm happy to be back and better than ever. In honor of a new year, I thought I'd share my 14 favorite layouts of 2014. I love seeing other people do these posts! I made OVER 200 layouts this year, so it was pretty tough to narrow it down. Here's what I came up with (in order of when I created them)!
14. Just My Type: This was a really special layout for me because it was the first Featured Project I had at Two Peas. Being the "Featured Project" was a little goal of mine, and it was really exciting to finally accomplish it!

13. Beautiful Girl: The geometric hearts and stitching, combined with the Dear Lizzy Daydreamer was a favorite of mine.
12. Hello Love: This was my first layout for Chickaniddy Crafts! I loved the quilt pattern combined with the heart and stitching.
11. Love: This was a labor of love, no pun intended. I watched quite a bit of TV while creating this cut file and backing it with various patterned papers. The cut file is available for download here if you're interested :)
10. All of Me: I love this one purely based on the quote! I couldn't get enough of the song "All of Me" by John Legend and how it made me feel warm fuzzies whenever I heard it. I just had to turn it into a layout! PS: I occasionally use the same photos multiple times (on accident), see above layout!
9. Valedictorian: I love this layout because I am so proud of my cousin! He was a valedictorian when he graduated from high school in May. I had fun using the bright colors on this page!
8. Doggles Days of Summer: Happy colors and a pup in Doggles!
7. Dear Michael: This was a play on the "Everything" layout I did earlier in the year. I was so honored to guest design for Wilna Furstenburg's iheart studio! I wrote a love letter to my sweet husband using my Silhouette Cameo.
6. To Be Continued...: I love this purely based on the colors and patterns!
5. Happy: The color combo in this Jubilee Collection by My Mind's Eye is stunning! I all the quotes too!
4. Sweet Mr. Ted: I don't thing Basic Grey's Grand Bazaar collection got nearly enough buzz! I love the unique colors and patterns and had so much fun scrapping with it!
3. Hello Love: I loved the theme of November's kit from Clique Kits!!
2. Rescued: This is one of my favorite quotes ever, and this layout has a lot of meaning to me because of the truth behind those words. Plus, I love the letters from the All Tied Up cut file by The Cut Shoppe!
1. Santa Claus: Love the Christmas theme and Teddy on Santa's lap!
Honorable Mention:
Michael is 27!: It was such an honor to guest design for American Crafts!
Who Girl: Purely based on how much we love Doctor Who!
I think 2014 was a great scrapping year, and I can't wait to see what 2015 looks like!
