Favourite Mo project for 2011!

Hi there my dear friends! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas holiday and your batteries are fully charged now and ready for a new year abounding in wonderful things!
This is our last challenge for 2011 at Mo's Digital Pencil Too and we have something special in mind for you. All you have to do in order to be eligible for 5$ shopping spree in Mo's store is to share with us your favourite Mo project you made in 2011. As simple as that.
I have lots of favorite cards but I chose this one because it's somehow special and a bit different than my usual style.

Recipe:
Stamp: Mo Manning: Dare
Coloring medium: copics/promarkers
DP: K&Co and Prima- Botanical, the golden globe is from a greeting  card
Embellishments: compass from stash, meatl corner from WOC, Tim Holtz film strip ribbon, gold dew drops from Robin's Nest
Misc: stickles, DI (antique linen and vintage photo), nestie labels 8
Sentiment: Mo Manning- came along with the image

Since I found it so hard to narrow down my favourite Mo projects, I thought maybe a top 5 would be also welcome; so here are my top Mo cards for 2011:
 

 




 Hope you like my selection:)
Thank you  everyone for visiting my blog today and over the past year; wish you all a wonderful 2012 with lots of accomplishments and especially  great health for you and your loved ones!
Big hugs,

Unfortunately I run out of black in my printer and since I was in such a hurry to have the cards done I printed this one in an awkward colour; the image is really wonderful, you can check it here in Mo's store, but they way it turned out, even coloured is not that successful...lol. 
The challenge theme we have for you over at Mo's today is

DP: Audrey Jeanne- Nature's Christmas Paper Pack, one of my favorite papers ever:)

I have met the most beautiful people from all over the world and I'm really thankful for that. I only wish days had more hours to spend them with you all and also to make lovely cards!
