Craftspiration - August 22nd, 2024

Hello friends,

It's a new week, and that means a whole new round of creative inspiration. We love to see your summer paper projects on display; it's fun to also see fall and holiday cards popping up! Below you will see travel photos in beautiful scrapbook pages, 3D Halloween projects, lovely birthday cards and so much more.

Come admire the amazing Griffinite crafting below!

Clare posted, "Another page made with the Madison Collection and Anna’s matte red paper. I tried foiling the mat and die cutting it. The anchor is perfect for this house at the Mystic Seaport Museum."

Shellie wrote, "The real trick for making and sending a card that's a Halloween TREAT is to get Anna's new Costumes Die Set. The Illustrated Instruction Sheet included perfectly familiarizes us with the die details, and Anna has taught us the greatest inlay-technique!"

Fifi made a fall flower shop this week; how beautiful!

Maria said, "Happy Sunday everyone! A birthday card for our retired Marine SIL."

We love the way that you used the Beautiful Birthday Dies and Madison!

Susan shared, "I haven’t posted in a while, but I can’t resist Anna Griffin Halloween! I found a tutorial for this box on line and created a place to display the Halloween cards I made. ALL Anna! It’s a two sided box so there are more cards on the other side."

Patti shared, "This is my take on Anna's Beautiful Birthday Dies made easy video: I fell in love with the green and blues color combination."

Marcia said, "This is my first card with the Wildflower Meadow Dies. It just looks stunning the way the pattern is embossed into the frame. So beautiful. The orchids are from Flower Pot decoupage die cuts."

Lorri posted, "I don't have a photo of us crafting but I drove up to spend the day with Mayflower Sonya. We had a great time. Thanks to Anna Griffin, I've made such wonderful friends."

Penny wrote, "Today I’m car crafting (not driving!) on our way back from Staunton, Virginia. I’m loving the new Birthday Box!"

Marie-Louise shared, "I’m really enjoying the Christmas Puppy Stickers! They’re so darn cute!"

Arlene wrote, "Used two card blanks in the Christmas Present Pop-up Box (from Mystery Box) back to back to make the frame for the Nativity Shutter card. Used a couple stickers from The Reason For The Season for the belly band and inner scene for the shutter card."

Sabrina posted, "My favorite project this week is another good witches page that will decorate my wall for the trick or treat season!"

Yvonne said, "Get your sunglasses on for the Hermosa Tractor! Love the vibrant colors. Made tiny flowers using the 3D Flower dies with crystal and pearl centers. Foils are the Dark Matte and Matte Gold. Such fun!"

Donna posted, "I can’t seem to get enough of the new Tractor Dies. I’ve made them for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and now Christmas. The possibilities are endless!"

Lu wrote, "Using the Members Only Lomasi cardstock, Finely Feathered Dies and the Harvest Border Stickers to cover a notepad from the office supply store. Have a wonderful Sunday!"

Donna shared, "Another Christmas card is completed. The white Glitter paper only shows up if you zoom in. I just love the joy on this child’s face."

Jo Ann used the Birthday Greetings Dies and her new Grateful Paper Dolls to make an amazing easel card! 

Diane said, "Just received the Grateful Paper Doll Stickers and Sentiments Diecuts, as well as the Harvest Border Stickers. Had to try them both out.  There’s so much to choose from in both sets. This card is for a bestie friend of mine."

Kim wrote, "Here’s one of my Halloween cards for you. Have a Boo-tiful Day!"

How fun is this spooky gate?

Dayle shared, "The Hermosa papers are just so bright and cheerful! Perfect for summer layouts. All Anna even the brads. They were in the Mystery Box and were the perfect color for the flowers."
