Wow, what a way to begin my new year of crafting!! I am so touched and feel very blessed by SCS members!
What a challenge it was for me to develop a list of my favorites for the year of 2016! I have worked on my list for days now, and I so wanted to list all 1,714 of my favorites!! I believe there are thousands of outstanding artists on SCS who deserve to be on our lists and, therefore, this task was the most difficult I have experienced since joining SCS.
I want to thank all of the 2016 notifiers; you have blessed us so much every week. I so appreciate you volunteering your personal time each week to this cause! Many blessings to you!
ChaosMom (Sorry, I don't know your name), a heartfelt thanks for the time you spent notifying me of such wonderful news! I appreciate your effort! Hugs!
As for the favorites lists, words are so inadequate to express my sincere and deep gratitude to the following awesome ladies who thought my artwork is worthy of their magnificent favorites list! I thank you with all my heart and soul, and you have brought me so much joy!
Linda (Holstein), Carolyn (f.schles), Susie (susie australia), Robin (Stamperrobin) X 3 (I feel so honored by you, Robin!), Kia (kiagc), Brenda (Benzi), Sabrina (Cook22), Priscilla (catluvr2),Tonda Baldwin, Polly (peeps321), Maura (beesmom), and Lisa (Shoe Girl) X 2 (I feel so honored, Lisa). Tight e-hugs to you all!!
Oh, I started to send out these thank you messages this morning but I got pulled away from my computer and have never been back all day. Until now.
So thank you in a great big appreciative way for the honors from
Linda (Holstein), Francie (F.Scheles), Robin (Stamperrobin), Sabrina (Cook22), and Ann (Annsforte3) for choosing one of my cards for this look back on favorites this year! It truly is an honor to be chosen by these wonderfully talented ladies!

Oh, precious Bev, thank you so much for honoring me three times (oh my!) by including my Tulips in Hobnail Pitcher, CAS388 Apples in Season, and Chickadee in Barberry! Wow, I am thrilled, and you are so dearly loved, my friend! And, sweet Robin, thanks again for continuing to deliver more happy mail. Bless your heart and all those who are working so hard to make the Best of 2016 such a joy for so many! Love you! xoxo
While catching up with the pinning, I discovered a couple of mentions that I'd missed earlier. Many thanks to Brenda (Benzi), for choosing God's promises, to Cheryl and Bev for choosing the color challenge Joy. This thread is so incredibly rich with brilliant talent! I'm honored to have my cards included.
Many thanks to the notification team as well. Wow! and to Susie, Stacy and Robin who helped me pin. Blessings on Priscilla, who tried valiantly but was defeated by the tech gremlins at Pinterest, and to Lydia who fielded a couple of pm's while on vacay.
We do good stuff here.

I hope it's ok to add a list of my own. I'm thrilled to be a part of the SCS community. Although I haven't been on much lately, nor have I been creating a favorites list (on SCS). My SCS favorites folder was started in August, I still had nearly 400 favorites. Much like many of you, I had a very difficult time paring this list down.
Before I provide my list, let me sincerely thank each of the volunteers for your generosity of time, talent, creative gifts, and kind words.
Also, I must sincerely and humbly thank Brenda (benzi), Kia, Polly, and Tonda for including me on your super impressive lists. I've loved making most of my uploaded projects but I am particularly proud of MIX189 Moose Tracks since this was truly a departure and set of new techniques for me. And Susie (susie australia), Eagle was made for my DH and he wants me to frame it...great minds think alike! Linda, thank you for the exciting notifications (and your gorgeous projects throughout the year).
I am overwhelmed and honored to find 3 of my cards fav'd in the Best of 2016 list. Joining SCS 10 months ago was one of the best things I have ever done for myself as all you wonderful women have helped me grow into a better stamper/creator.
My heartfelt thanks to the following for adding my cards to their list: Robin (StamperRobin)- Fairy Dust Niki1 - Shades of Gray Lisa (shoeGirl) - Window Shopping . . .
and to Vicki (vdm) and Mary T (jandjccc) for the notifications.
Totally awesome start to the year 2017!!!

Thank you in advance for the happy mail PJ....I hope you are still talking to me. Xx

My sweet, precious sister, Cheryl (CherylQuilts), I am so blessed to have my Christmas Deer card included on your remarkable list of favorites for 2016! It is such a privilege to be recognized by such an esteemed artist! You touch my heart, sweet one! Hugs and lots of love!
My heartfelt thanks to the notifier who sends me the wonderful news! Hugs to you! :grin:
Oh, Deborah (just4deborah), I cannot expressed how much it means to me that you included my Remember 9-11 card on your list of favorites for 2016!! It's not the most beautiful card, but it has such meaning to me. I created it with so much emotion, reliving that horrific day. To have you include it as a favorite is the highest honor I could receive, and you really touched my heart!! Actually, having it recognized as you have brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so very much sweet Deborah!!
A heartfelt thanks to the notifier who brings me this great news!! All notifiers have brought such joy to me throughout the year, and I am so grateful for you!!!
I am so very grateful to included in your Favorites of 2016. It never fails to humble me when something I create speaks to a fellow artist. I am truly honored.
Mere thank you doesn't seem enough for the precious gift of your time to this thread. Wish I could fly in a skywriter plane above all the earth, trailing a banner of appreciation. Priceless.
I had a quick look at the Pinterest board and got lost in the beauty, artistry, and creativity seen there.
So many wonderful people to thank today. I am feeling so blessed to be a part of this wonderful community here on SCS. Thank you Priscilla (catluvr2) for all the Best of 2016 notifications. I really appreciate you taking the time to notify us.
Thank you to these wonderful crafters for adding my cards to your BEST of 2016. You have left me wonderful comments and I am so honored to be on your amazing lists of favorites.
