Craftspiration- September 28th, 2023

Hello Griffinites,

Can you believe that we have arrived at the end of September? It brings us such joy to see your fall cards (and all others!) on display below. Each week we wait with eager anticipation to see just what you will come up with next! It is also a treat to see some of the sneak peek items from our AGTV shows appear; we spy a festive  Slimline Santa card and a couple of beautiful Madonna and Child Dies cards! There are so many great ideas below, and we know that you will find the fresh inspiration from our crafting community absolutely wonderful.

Let’s see what was shared this week!

Joyce said, “My Sunday share is a Thanksgiving Flower Cart easel card. Everything is from Anna’s Haunted Flower Cart Embellishments. Love what everyone is sharing today. Awesome cards!”

Gorgeous fall flower cart, Joyce!

Shellie shared, “Not haunted, only happy, the ‘Slimline Santa’ sounds like a great name for a gift-giving gnome-sweet-gnome here in North Texas! I loved your cardmaking with your newest die set on last week’s AGTV, Anna! Both the calendar and his golden drum-beat tell us it’s just 92 days til Christmas. I have made and embellished a former CREATE die set ‘All Boxed In’ for a perfect gift box for a pair of GNOME socks for my daughter.”

Diane posted, “This week I worked on a few cards using Anna’s Vintage Fall Decoupage Cutouts. There are really adorable pop out pictures that can be 3D layered. I embossed the background on champagne colored Matte Foil, layered the turkey, added a sentiment & a Falloween pre-tied bow. Simple & fun!”

Sherry said, “Here’s Another Sunday Share. Just finished this Madonna and Child Die Christmas card. I received my dies yesterday and couldn’t wait to make a card. I promised myself to finish one project before jumping to another. This die set gave me incentive to finish my scrapbook page below. Thank you Anna for providing dies that create cards with such clarity, dimension and detail.”
So glad that you love the new dies!

Barbara wrote, “I have been creating my own embellishments all week with various dies and some of your old glitter cardstock. I did use some shiny silver because I am limited on the matte. They are turning out great. This is just a start as I am trying to make them into collections for cards and scrapbooking.”
Your Baubles and Branches ornaments are incredible!

Beautiful projects. Truly amazing creations. I can see the extraordinary detail of the Madona Mother and Child die in this Craftspration Thursday. It truly is stunning. Great job on this die set, Anna and team.

Happy Fall Y"all!!
Happy Crafting!

Oh, I love everything, everything is so beautiful and elegant. It really shines when you put them on cards. I have a question though Anna, when is your team and you going to do some scrapbooking pages to show us the different techniques?

Chris Taylor

Beautiful madonna and child die. I’ve been watching for it your site and HSN but I haven’t seen it. When did it come out and where can I buy it?
