Craftspiration- July 24rd, 2025

Hi Crafters,

We’re absolutely in love with what you’ve been creating— this week’s craftspiration is full of heartfelt stories, creative combos and cards that celebrate the big and little moments in life. You’ve shown us how crafting is more than paper and embellishments— it’s memories, love and a whole lot of sparkle.

Let’s take a look at what’s making our hearts sing this week:

Josette said, "I started with a 5x7 card & when I started to add the couch I decided I needed it on an easel card with extended floor. Using the Easel Frame die worked, the smaller Neoclassical die for the lady of the house portrait frame, Flower Shoppe plants & of course, a pretty pouf!"

Heidi shared, "Using up what I have from old Christmas boxes to decorate the tags during our zoom."

Diane said, "The Perfect Palette has the perfect red!"

Lisa wrote, "Made Class 1 of Windmill Dreams in Finishing School for a friend’s birthday yesterday."

Wanda said, "Finishing my Christmas cards and needed to include rub on transfers inside. I love this fireplace and mantle die set."

Yvonne posted, "Today is our 51st wedding anniversary! The card I made for my husband using Carte Homme and the musical cardstock for background, frame and clock. Sapphire blue and Emerald green are the colors for 51 years and are reflected in the clock face. Clock hands set on the 5 and 1. A hand stamped quarter moon in copper wearing a 51 top hat for a whimsical note. Champagne glasses with Dresden shooting stars mark the celebration."

Debra said, "Making favor boxes with the new bow and box dies!"

Jimmie Lynn shared, "Fairy summer pages!"

Pam wrote, "Started making cards from the Christmas Present kit. Love it that there's blue in this kit!"

Fifi Soleil said, "With the Christmas Present dies I made a Christmas village scene."

Mary posted, "For a 65th Anniversary....which is sapphire."

Lara said, "I finally worked on my Flower Cart Finishing School kit. So pretty!"

Becky Jo wrote, "Created for my son. I cut the layer to see behind. He’s the King of hearts to his wife & little daughter. Roulette wheel for his memory of him seeing my mom at New York New York. And what’s funny he collects decks of cards. I could use a whole bag of these embellishments."

Annie Laura posted, "My Sunday share are the beautiful Anna Griffin cards I got for my 85th birthday! THANK YOU ALL for adding joy to my birthday."

Fifi said, "I combined Christmas Present & 3D Concentric Dies with 3D Garland Staircase to make this warm Christmas scene. Love both dies."

Whether you're making tags from your stash, finishing school projects, or building 3D dream scenes— you’re inspiring us all. So keep sharing, keep creating and remember: every project you make tells a story. We love being part of yours!

Bye for now,

Anna
