Each week we get the most wonderful ideas for card making, scrapbooking and more. We love to share them with you because we know that you are always looking to advance your craft and connect with crafters near and far. Thank you for enriching our world!

Jan posted, "I mailed out my last Springtime card for this year. I'm definitely not ready for the Texas summer. It's still preheating right now."

Luckily, staying inside will let you cool off!

Carrie said, " I used Anna's Calligraphic Sentiment dies to make this Father's Day card for my wonderful husband. It was my first time using these dies & my husband really loved his card!"

Marie wrote, "Pulled out some older dies, stickers and vellum to create some texture and contrast."

Maria shared, "Today is our son and daughter-in-law's anniversary and they received a special card."

Lu posted, "Trying out the purse dies. I kinda love them!"

We definitely love your card!

Jane shared, "Happy Father's Day to all the awesome dads!! I'm sharing the card I crafted for my dad using the super beautiful Anna Griffin Inc. Lomasi cardstock. I cannot wait to give this to my dad today! My Godfather received his (very similar) and he told me he loved it; mission accomplished!"

Janet said, "For the father of my kids and my ex husband… he is a plumber."

Eve I recently made a trip to San Diego, and my mind instantly thought of the Seafarer Collection when I started to put them in an album. Here is the first page. The embellishments were fussy cut from one of the patterned papers.

Amazing page, Eve!

Barbie My Sunday share!! From nothing to something! I took the challenge from Yadyra/ FWLAG FB page and used all scraps. I needed a quick card for my granddaughter, Bella's birthday!! And I forgot - it’s suppose to say “For Bella” - old habits! LOL!!

We know that it will be the best gift to Bella. Happy Birthday to her!

Shannon posted, "Well Miss Bella is at it AGAIN! Trying to power through the Birthday Wishes card box and she has claimed the box!! I love her so!"

Diane said, "Happy Father’s Day to all our dads and fathers of our children. Shout out to fatherhood!"

Tracy wrote, "This is a card I made for hubby featuring Anna's Vintage Dad Decoupage Diecuts. It was perfect because he now loves badminton...and also dogs. I was so glad I had this set!"

Jane said, "Happy Father’s Day. At our Beautiful in the Making Circle group , I was able to make this card."

Yvonne posted, "Madison papers and banner with Stars Aligned made a great background for this 1963 split-window Corvette. The 'Vette pictures were fussy cut. The recipient of the card built this car with his son. The giver of the card said he and his son shouted for joy when the first 3 tail lights came out of the envelope! He’s going to frame it which is the one of the highest compliments this paper artist could ever receive!"

Barbara shared, "A baby shower card I made for a dear friend’s daughter. Just love Canton Bleu!"

Fifi wrote, "I have also started my Christmas cards with the new Village Die."

Sherry posted, "Simple card with a big message."

Dayle wrote, "I used some of my remaining Virginia papers and scraps for this interactive page.  Love how the mascara roses look with these beautiful papers."

Michelle, said " Hi Anna! Thought you might like to see my 80 year old mum's card she made yesterday after purchasing the Anna Griffin Paper Shoes Finishing School Craft Box from QVC.  She made it for me and I absolutely adore it.  She can't wait to make more!  She loves all your craft by the way."

She did an incredible job!

Patricia shared, "Roses have started to bloom here in England... the sentiment and the gentle colours of early June will cheer up a dear friend."
