Craftspiration- January 2nd, 2025

Hello Griffinites,

Let's start the new year of crafting in the best way! It was wonderful to see your end of the year paper projects on our social media channels. From gifts to albums and beautiful valentines, this week's post has it all! Come see what Griffinites have made and shared in the last week!

Tracy shared, "These are the beginning of ornaments I just finished for 2024. We have a 9' tree that is dedicated solely to photo ornaments which I have made over the years. I find it a wonderful and heartwarming way to celebrate family and friends. A dear childhood friend of mine (pictured in one of the ornaments) whom I hadn't seen for a gazillion years, visited me just before Christmas and it meant so much to me, that I had to make an ornament to commemorate it. I want to thank Anna and her team for providing such beautiful and amazing dies and embellishments that make it possible to create family heirlooms to last a lifetime...which everyone can enjoy."

Diane said, "Gave our daughter and son-in-law the 8x8 Simply Wildflower Album of their wedding as their Christmas gift. My first scrapbook ever! Love the smaller size … it’s very giftable and was much easier for me to format."

Annie Laura posted, "This my fifth Valentine card using the Carte Noire Square Cards from Mystery Box! Thanks Anna for the great products in Mystery Box!"

Arlene wrote, "And so it begins the season of paper and lace….for both cards used the Love Ephemera Stickers, which are wonderful! The rectangle card used the Lovely Concentric Frame Dies, the heart card is the Valentine Easel card. First time using the Envelope Seal Cut and Emboss Folders which are on the heart easel card."

Kelly said, "I just love this snowman!"

Terry posted, "It's super easy to make a quick Valentine with the new Heart Shaped Cards. The Enchanted Concentric Dies work wonderfully for layering."

Sherry shared, "I decided while I still had my Christmas card making supplies out I would start on my Christmas Cards for next year. Here is one of the cards. The card base and the top layer are the same design. I cut an oval from the top layer and set the Madonna & Child inside the oval. The cut out oval from the top layer is used to decorate the inside of the card along with matching Christmas Ephemera Rub Ons."

Fifi wrote, "My first Valentine card using Heart Shaped Cards (absolutely love them) with Love Ephemera Stickers and Lace Doily Embellishments."

Wanda said, "This carriage is great for any baby card."

Kim shared, "Cleaned up my craft studio and put all Christmas away. Now on to a few Valentine’s Day cards."

Gloria said, "I so enjoyed making these gift tags. They were fun to make and wonderful to see."

Dayle shared, "Simply Noel Scrapbooking kit is such a wonderful gift to those of us who love to scrapbook.  Papers, borders, frames, embellishments and journaling tags are right at our fingertips to create holiday pages.  Such a help during this busy season!"
