2016 was a doozie

I teach, but can select the semesters that I teach. I elect to teach summer and fall, taking spring term off. During this time (the only temperate time in FL) I do home improvement projects and the occasional card. Usually I can take an our a week to make a card. That was not available this year, so what follows are some of my 2016 production.
a friend is the niece of the author Harper Lee (To Kill a Mockingbird). I made this for her on the occasion of Harper's death.
