Craftspiration- August 28th, 2025

Hi crafters,

You’ve done it again— WOW! This community never ceases to amaze with your thoughtful hands and heartfelt stories. Whether you’re dusting off your supplies after a long pause or crafting straight through the seasons, your work radiates beauty, courage, and connection. Every week, we witness how your creativity becomes a lifeline, a celebration, or simply a spark of joy— and that fills us with so much pride!

This week’s gallery has it all: spooky sparkle, intricate embossing, and butterflies in bloom!

Come be inspired!

Terry said, “I haven’t posted in a while. My older and younger siblings became ill at the same time in January and the oldest has since passed. It’s taken me a while get my 'rear in gear,’ but Halloween decor grabbed my attention and pulled me back into the craft room. Doing a little mix and match, I created 2 dozen rosette style ornaments to share with family and friends.”

Terry said, “And another batch of ornaments to share.”
Just look at those little witches— adorable!

Gay Lynn Randall Schlosser said, “The Flower Pot Embellishment Stickers makes a cheerful get well card quick and easy.”

Marie said, “Fun Halloween crafting at our Friday night zoom! Used the Diamond Dies from CAH5 and the new Gothic Die Set.” Friday night fright done right— how fun!

Diane said, "Love the French Fans Dies. I am making 8 for a dinner— I may not be able to part with them!"

Cheryl wrote, "I love my Flower Cart Die Set! I was gifted the fall embellishments from a dear friend whom I met through the Florida Griffinites. Susan Ryan was so very sweet to "Gift Forward " to me during our August Crop! Thank you for all you do! Looking forward to our Create event. I did not think twice when you first provided the Create event! I got my Golden Ticket during the "Early Bird " time frame.

Shellie Marken Fontana said, “Happy Sunday Share, creative friends! Yes, with the best in Luxury Matte Foil and newest Spellbound Cut & Emboss Folders from Anna Griffin Inc., we get perfect SPOOKTACULAR results every time! (...even when a ‘little under the weather,’ but mind is still feeling creative, I find Anna’s Illustrated Idea Sheets the perfect warm-up inspiration to make-then-send!)”

Fifi Soleil said, “Love the new Gothic Revival 3D Frame Dies.”

Belinda Kerschen said, “Birthday card with the Butterfly Folders!”
Delicate and delightful!
