I haven't had as much time in the galleries as I usually like to. Busy week for me. Here are some cards that I especially loved and put in my favorites.
Biggan continues to intrigue me with her work week after week
Wendybell gorgeous coloring and a wonderful card going to her son serving as missionary. She misses him so much.
Wendy Gorton this is her first upload ever and if you read her description you will see why this is *extremely precious* to me. Nothing means more to me than inspiring others to stretch and find their own creativity. This is adorable to me.
Jeanne S I don't have much to say about Jeanne's work that I haven't already said as she hits my favorites everytime. She is amoung the most talented and creative people on this site. I love this card!!!!!!!
SweetMissDaisy 1 and 2 Ditto everything I just said about Jeanne. Anna is my coloring hero. I know she gets sick of me telling her in every darn one of her uploads but I can't help myself.
I just had to pop on to say thank you to you, Kitty and others that give a brief reason as to why you were drawn to your favorites. It's easy to say "that's a nice card", but you gals tell us "why". Thanks!!!
Good Sunday morning!! I rarely visit this thread ~~ I usually can't keep up with it. But since I'm here early I wanted to share a couple of my favorites this week.....
Papertrey Goodie Day by Hazzzmomy ~~ love this little ensemble she created. Makes me want these sets even more!!
Christmas gift bottles by Iris. Guess I'm all about the non-cards this week, lol!! I just loved these adorable little bottles, everything on them is just so CUTE!!!
I'm sure I have more but these are the 2 projects that really grabbed my attention this week!!!

i figure my list takes up enough space that putting reasons would take up even more space. i try to keep mine short to leave room for everyone else.

Here are some of my favorites. Sorry, there's a lot again. But there are many that haven't been seen by many because they were not part of a challenge. Happy viewing!

Janice - I sooo hope that you didn't take my comment as a negative remark. I promise I didn't mean it that way. You do post the name of the stamper which also helps. I know that sometimes a particular card is duplicated in the faves (as people are posting at the same time ;) ), so that also saves me from looking two times. I don't get to spend a lot of time here, so I like to see as much as possible. Again, I didn't mean it in a bad way.

Pam, I think it is important to tell why we are drawn to a particular card. It is affirming to the person that created the card but also may point out something special and unique that others may have missed on first look. There is so much darn talent in this community and so many wonderful examples of different styles. I am usually in awe every week.

Oh Kitty, thank you. That is all I meant and it is so very true. Sometimes it is as simple as an embellishment that I missed when I took a "quick" look. There is a boat load of talent on this site!

That's me too. I spend more time posting so many that it takes up a lot of room. I'd rather post more cards than explain why I'm posting it. I'm short with my card comments, too. Just know that if I took the time to post in the short amount of time I have in the evenings looking at hundreds of daily uploads, then I really liked it and wanted you to know. ;)
Here are mine that I don't "think" have been mentioned:
lazylizard - a better year creeping up - Love the uniqueness of this for a birthday card. I have a friend with an October birthday and this inspired me to do a Halloween card for her.
GinaK - western Carribean or bust - I just love these stamps. They make me smile everytime I see them. I love how she made it look like they are peeking in the portals.
raduse - Living On The Pier - This is just so creative! It reminds me of days at Long Beach harbor, docking the boat to go to a restaurant for dinner, then touring the harbor. Thanks for the memories.
Lauraly - A Sweet & Simple Card - it really is sweet and simple...and lovely. Love the pink and black.
zindorf - CCRAK to StampinQueenJAR - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this! I think it's the shading...and the little punches are the perfect touch. I love most everything that she does.
mkstampin74 - Simple StationeryI - love the simplicity of this - AND the picture staging is beautiful.
merniebug - DON'T FORGET TO FLOSS - I love the bright colors on this card. The stamp is adorable, too!

Thanks, Sandy (sgalley) for mentioning my card. I too appreciate the comments of why someone was drawn to my card. I know it takes a little extra time, but I do enjoy reading them. I'm saving room here by not hitting the quote button on this.
