Fan Mail Friday- August 1st, 2025

Hi everyone,

Today, we are feeling so loved and celebrated! August is birthday month here at Anna Griffin, Inc., and your fan mail is full of joy, surprises, and heartfelt wishes. Thank you for taking the time to make these beautiful creations. Every card, letter and gift reminds me how special our crafting community is.

Watch the video:

Jenny shared a hand-painted card and a collection of treasured vintage papers. She wrote the most heartfelt note about the joy that crafting together has brought to her life.

Lisa mailed a cheerful wagon easel birthday card full of love and hugs before heading on vacation. Her words about creative joy truly warmed our hearts.

Cindy made a clever sliding scene easel card with a lovely note about how much joy crafting brings her. She’s been with us since 2020 and has attended all our Create events—what dedication!

Sabrina’s beautiful vignette and paper doll birthday card was so elegant. We can picture her smiling face as we read her sweet note.

Isn't the inside just lovely?

Veronica crafted a layered filigree flower birthday card with a cheerful “Stolat Stolat” greeting. Her paper-painting skills are stunning!

And finally, Yukari wowed us with a stunning Lian birthday box card complete with a slipcase, mirrored bow box, and vibrant colors. Only she could create something so exquisite!

We are overflowing with gratitude for this amazing community. Every card, note, and thoughtful gift makes birthday month extra meaningful. If you’ve ever thought about sending something in for Fan Mail Friday, we would love to celebrate YOU and your creativity!

Send your cards and letters to:
99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324.

If you haven’t experienced one of our Create events yet, this is the perfect year to join us! Create is our annual crafting celebration where we spend three unforgettable days making beautiful projects, learning new techniques and sharing laughter with fellow Griffinites from all over the world. Whether you join us in person or virtually, it’s the ultimate weekend of creativity, inspiration and friendship. Mark your calendars for November 14th, 15th, and 16th— we would love for you to be part of the magic!

Oh, my goodness…I’ve been trying to write this comment since FRIDAY, when I watched Fan mail Friday over on the YouTube! Distractions are something else! I wanted to comment over here on the blog to wish both Anna (today, August 5) and MYSELF (Friday, August 1) a grand and glorious Born Day. Mine was definitely so.
I also wanted to comment on all the beautiful cards displayed, especially the one using the “favorite papers” (deep bleu and white) and particularly the card created and sent by Janice, which used the most gorgeous 3d engraved background frame in gold and floral background paper. Such unusual colors and such depth in both, and so unfamiliar to me as I haven’t been able to participate in any create events or shopping in general! I have so much to discover/rediscover in the Anna Griffin emporium! I look forward to seeing more of the creativity of all the talented Griffinites who share their makes in person or on social media.
Have a lovely day!
