Craftspiration- June 25th, 2026

Hi crafters,

As summer shines bright and celebrations of red, white and blue fill our hearts, we are once again reminded that you are the most incredible, talented and endlessly inspiring crafting community anyone could ask for! Every card, scrapbook page, home décor project and heartfelt creation you share is a beautiful reminder that creativity has the power to bring people together. It is an absolute honor to celebrate your imagination, generosity and passion each week, and this week's gallery is bursting with patriotic pride and spectacular projects!

Come be inspired!

Tracie said, "Here is a card with the Hydrangea Dies and Faux Matelassé. Which is woven Charlie border with inlayed Jack papers.  I gave you several copies with and without a flash. Thank you for all the team and Anna do to give us so much inspiration!"
Barbie said, "Happy Sunday! After jumping on the Matelassé bandwagon, I started thinking and wondering if I had any other embossing folders I could try this same process on. I loved how this one turned out. I embossed two pieces of gold matte foil and used some scraps from the Charlie Papercrafting Kit. I was able to save the square pieces and reverse the pattern for the second gold one."

Mary said, "A card for my late brother's wife. He was a Vietnam Veteran who passed away in April of this year. More of a remembrance than a celebration card. I also included the harmonica embellishment inside, as my brother played a harmonica."
What a touching tribute.

Jane said, "I crafted this card yesterday and initially it started out as an experiment. My friend Nora wanted me to try a 'glossy paper' experiment. I had planned on starting my July 4th cards and I ended up making only one. I gifted it to Nora same day. I combined Anna Griffin Inc. FS Celebration Chest dies + June 2026 Mystery Box dies + some Luxury Iridescent Foil Cardstock. Two photos, one with flash (L), and one without flash (R). With flash it gives the appearance of a nighttime sky and fireworks exploding!"
How clever!

Dayle said, "I just received the Pretty Patriotic 3D Frame Dies. And couldn't wait to make an easel card with them. I used the Madison papers and embellishments. And some stars using the Stars Aligned Dies."

Alice said, "I made this card for a dear friend who has been so kind to me!"
Friendship is always worth celebrating.

Maria said, "Happy Sunday! Today I am finishing some cards for July, love the embellishments for this time of year!"

Kathleen said, "This weekend I received the June patriotic Mystery Box along with my special Member's only Eagle inspired 250th celebration for America. I wanted to create a FUN 3D project and repurposed my French Fans into red, white and blue fun!! I'm ready to celebrate our nation's 250th birthday with this FAN-tastic project!! I'm definitely one of Anna Griffin Inc.'s biggest FANS!!!"
So much patriotic fun!

Laural said, "Loving all the patriotic inspiration!"
We are too!

Marie said, "Having fun making 4th of July cards! I love how easy these tent cards come together! The Gild plates for this holiday foil so well!"

Terry said, "Greetings, my crafty friends! I'm sharing a card layered with the Scroll Corner Concentric Frame Dies, paired with the Paris Green Matte Foil Cardstock, and finished with a Prayer Sentiment Rub On Transfer."
Elegant as always.

Emana said, "I made these slippers from the June MB 🇺🇸"
How fun!

Diane said, "Patriotic card is from all of Anna's June Mystery Box except for the sentiment. The Mystery Boxes are so FUN!"

Lu said, "I made 5 of these for a 4th of July card exchange. The Schooner Dies are fun! Have a blessed Sunday!"

Carrie said, "I made this Father's Day card for my wonderful husband, Brent. ❤️ I really enjoyed creating his card using the BBQ Dies! I attached the tongs & oven mitt with small brads, so they can swing back & forth. Happy Father's Day to all of the Dads out there!❤️"
What a wonderful interactive design!

Laura said, "When we go through our picture gallery of our personal Anna Griffin Inc. card creations, we can honestly say that we have been blessed and still blessed with some wonderful dies, cards, cardstocks and sentiments! Thank you Anna!❤️"
Thank you for your kind words!

Anna in Savannah said, "I am enjoying using the unique Turned Edge Dies. Looking forward to making a scrapbook page with these dies."
We can't wait to see it!

Socorro said, "I have always hesitated to send you some of my cards but why not. There is nothing more emotionally rewarding and cortisol reducing than working with my hands. I love the quality and diversity of Anna's dies and papers and I become transported when working with her supplies."

We love your summer house, church and all of the gorgeous details!

Roxann said, "Loving the Summer card kit. I added my seashell stickers to seashell paper layer in the kit. Worked great!!"
A perfect splash of summertime creativity!
