Rosann said, “I made this from the Botanical paper from CAH 5 and added the embellishments from the Wedding Card Layers Kit.” 

Vickie said, “Feeling a little ‘snarky’, hahaha! Victorian snarky ladies marry the Greenhouse Card Toppers!”

Donna said, “My brother was visiting from Florida this week. He asked me to teach him how to make a card. He wanted to make a Hanukkah card for a friend. With a little bit of direction, this is his finished product.”

Evelyne said, “Making bookmarks for my community book club… Love that we can turn any die into a favor.”

Fifi said, “Love this frame in gold with red. It definitely makes a beautiful statement.”

Shellie said, “I finished embellishing the remaining Christmas Scenes Kirigami cards, and having such FUN!… These are the perfect Christmas ‘magical reveal’ interactive cards!”

Marie said, “Birthday card sailing away with special wishes!! The schooner was perfect for this card used as just a topper!”

Kim said, “The Victorian Christmas die set is still one of my favorite dies to build layers with.”

Vicki said, “I have made about 20 of these Christmas Sliders this weekend… It’s so easy to create ‘Beautiful in the Making’ with Anna’s gorgeous products.”

Mary Beth said, “Finally, have gotten to the aubergine flora!! Love it!!”

Donna said, “This is my first Hanukkah card using the new card toppers.”

Diane said, “For my Sunday Share I have chosen one of my Mary & Joseph Christmas cards. Their embossing is so beautifully detailed. Every card made can have its very own background layered with Anna’s exquisite choices of foiled papers and/or Matte Foiled Cardstock. I will love sending these special cards this year.

Diane said, “I love the ease and simplicity of the Simply Kits, and how well all of Anna’s dies and embellishments go with them.”

Dayle said, “My Sunday share was inspired by my grandkids saying they were counting down to Halloween already. I thought a shaker hour glass would be fun for them.”

Fifi said, “Made this card using the new Luxury Iridescent Foil Cardstock. It is a gorgeous paper.”

JoAnn posted her lovely purple easel card. We love how she turned the Woodland Concentric Dies to make this card.

Each of your projects has inspired us this week. Thank you for taking the time to connect with your fellow crafters and gifting us incredible ideas.

Everything is just stunning. I love how so many mix and match products from today and yesterday. They ALWAYS go together!!
But I must say the 3D hour glass die on glitter paper is a testament to the detail and the quality of Anna’s 3D dies. Incredible.
I will be scrolling again and again to see what I missed the first time around.
Happy Crafting!

Leslie Ramsey

I love all the different dies, colors and designs.
