Diane said, “Presenting my Sunday Share. Anna’s paper, Chinoiserie, used for this teapot, was perfect for Chinese & herbal teas. The song is a nursery song we used to sing as kids & with our own children.”

Lu said, “Loving the Mary and Joseph Dies! They do all of the work! Have a wonderful Sunday!”

Josette said, “My Sunday is cutting Christmas dies so they’re all ready for the ‘beautiful in the making’! And lots more to cut!"

Dayle said, “Have been working with the stunning Mary and Joseph Dies. I combined them with the Christmas Botanical Papers. The dark poinsettia papers gave it a dramatic feel. Embossed with the magical medallion folder. The angels were from the 120 Angelic Stickers Kit.”

Shellie said, “Happy Sunday Share, Anna and creative friends! THANK YOU, Anna, for bringing back Kirigami Embellishments Kit during your Christmas-in-July SALE! It was a GREAT DEAL, and shipped fast; and I am looking forward sending out this card (and others), using Kirigami Round die directly onto the double-sided card design, and pairing with additional Christmas Wishes Embellishments, and Photo Finish Die Set (from CREATE 9). The ribbon-pull was easy, yet taking the best-photo was the trickiest part! I know those on my card list will enjoy Kirigami Christmas as much as I do!”

Heidi said, “Maybe this collage is better. Hard to capture this card for photo sharing. This is for my granddaughter’s birthday. She will be 10 but we have always watched Frozen together and my hubby’s truck is named Samantha. we came out of the theater and Olaf would say ‘where is Samantha?’ So when we left the theater and walked to the truck she would say where is Samantha. She still does this and it’s just cute as ever.”

Fifi said, “Continuing my Christmas cards and could not help but making a card with a family of snowmen. They just make you smile. All aboard.”

Marie said, “A birthday card for a friend and the blue and silver makes a lovely pulley card. Luxury Foil Cardstock for the win.”

Laura said, “I had so much fun creating this Christmas card with the new Anna Griffin Christmas Presents Card Kit! The green and gold die cuts are Anna’s as well from another packet. The Luxury Christmas Present Cardstock was used for these dies cut outs.

Dayle shared, "I am having so much fun making a birthday 3D Easel hourglass card.  My dear friend loves pink! I didn’t make it as a shaker card as I ran out of sequins."
