Hi friends,
We are so excited to craft with you and the Anniversary Stamps today! We have taken some of our very first stamp designs (they used to be on wood) and created easy to use clear stamps. From every day sentiments and designs that make pattern repeat easy, you are going to love creating images with this set. You will get 32 amazing stamps to work with, and if you have the Perfect Palette Inks, they work perfectly together. If you don't have these timeless stamps, you can get them on sale on our website this week!
Let's learn how to make this week's stunning card!
We like to use our Stamp Platform and Alignment Tool to create pattern repeating borders. Our gorgeous hybrid Perfect Palette Inks are just the thing for adding beautiful color to your paper projects.
Create endless sentiments with the included sentiment stamps and use compendium dies from your craft room to cut them out.
Combine 5 inch borders and 7 inch borders to form a frame. Use your ruler, a 45 degree angle and a craft knife to cut and miter your corners.
Add your mitered frame to a card of your choice. We added a layer from the Canton Bleu Cardstock and Embellishments.
Create a collage of pretty embellishments from the Canton Bleu Cardstock and Embellishments.
Add your layered sentiment with foam adhesive to finish your card.
Now it's time to write your message, sign and seal this card. Send it to a friend, family member or anyone who needs to hear from you!
It's fun to mix and match different patterns from the Anniversary Stamps. We know that you can find gorgeous flowers from your craft room to add to your cards.
Stamp your card base and layers and add them together! Aren't the pink and blue pretty together?
Stamp layers and use your frame dies to create elegant, tonal cards.
We are having the best time celebrating 30 years of Anna Griffin Inc. this year. Bringing back some of our favorite and most beloved products in new ways is so much fun. We hope that you love these designs as much as we do, and we are excited to see you post your stamping projects. Access this blog post for the next week, and log into your AG Membership to see it and more in the future. There are hundreds of learning on demand videos awaiting you in Finishing School!
Join us on AGTV tomorrow for our Spring Fashion crafting show at 12pm. We hope to see you there!
Bye for now,
Anna

I also love the card with the brown bow. You don’t very often see brown cards and bows. Thank you 😊
Thanks! I am trying stamping more often these days.
Thank you so much for this video. I bought the stamps recently and have used the sentiments and tried the borders. This video really helps me visualize how they work. A sample sheet along with the dies would be a great idea. They are really beautiful though. Look forward to using them more.
Pretty! I’m trying stamping. I don’t always do too well.
When I stamp, I usually get more ink on me than the paper. This looks like an easier technique to try.
