Hi crafters,

Your incredible, thoughtful and endlessly inspiring projects remind us that handmade gifts and cards have a special way of expressing love and creating meaningful connections. It is an absolute honor to see what you are making each week, and your beautiful creations fill our hearts with admiration and gratitude!

This week’s gallery is bursting with beautiful projects, heartfelt stories and creative inspiration perfect for Father’s Day weekend and beyond!

Come be inspired!

Wanda said, "I love this flower cart finishing school class. I made this one for a friend who is turning 80. She is a member of Longwood Gardens and I have often been her guest there. For her birthday I am taking her to lunch at the new restaurant there." So sweet!

Belinda said, "Each month our local cider place has an Open Craft Day. I took my supplies and invited the patrons to do a 'make and take' birdhouse! Creativity to the max! They loved it and so did I."

Dayle said, "Starting my Fourth of July cards with the Antique Train Slimline Easel Dies and the Stars Aligned Dies. Madison papers and embellishments."

Marie said, "Our Beautiful In The Making Circle had a craft and chat zoom session tonight and I highly recommend meeting with others and sharing ideas and inspiration. Nothing like creative human connection!"

We love the connection and your patriotic card!

Annie Laura said, "A card for my son who happens to on a trip!"

Gay Lynn said, "Getting ready for summer greetings with the Simply Tropical Card Kit!"

Natalea said, "Loving mystery box elements and ideas from Create."

It's coming to AGTV on June 24th!

Kathleen said, "Sunday share!! Ready for Father's Day!!"

Crystal said, "I wanted to share a card I made with your paper. I made the box also. I used Anna Griffin dies for the opening and the decoration on the card. Thank you for the beautiful paper you created!" How lovely! We always enjoy seeing your creativity come to life.

JoAnne said, "I used the 'BBQ Scene Dies' to make this card for my wonderful son-in-law!" What a fun Father's Day-inspired creation!

Julie said, "I went in Hobby Lobby last Monday and saw Halloween and Christmas EVERYWHERE! So I came home and saw the Finishing School wreath project sitting on my desk since last fall! Absolutely loved this wreath sooooo much that I made a July 2026 wreath!

I wanted to thank you all for putting the classes together for inspiration and creativity! My office doors will now have Anna wreaths year-round!

After completing my 3rd create, I have been trying to work on many projects that were just waiting to be made beautiful and you have pushed me."
