We are giving away a ticket each week!
Beautiful mail made its way to the office this week; come take a look!
Hip, hip hooray it’s Ohio’s 220th Birthday! The Ohio Griffinites sent this sweet card along with a sweet treat. Thank you to Cathy, Beth, Carol, Lynn, Ellen, Carol, Pat, Loraine, Joyce, Pat, Donnajean, Tasha, Toni, Deanna and Sandi!
Roxanne sent a basketful of luck! Thank you for the just because card; it’s full of all things wonderful! We are glad that crafting has been such an outlet for you and has helped through difficult times. We are thinking of you and sending lots of hugs.
Stacey made the most beautiful card with the Simply Birthday Card Making Kit that she won on AGTV. She further embellished it with the Cardcentric Compendium Dies, and we agree they work together wonderfully.
This pretty thank you card from Lynn is so lovely! From the elegant edges to the beaded flowers, everything is gorgeous! Have fun on your anniversary trip.
We love getting thank you cards from our winners! Lori also won on AGTV, and sent us a pretty card made with the Carte Noire Rub Ons. She said that we help spread kindness to others; we are happy to help!

So happy my card got there! Never know with the crazy weather these last few weeks. Enjoy your Buckeyes! Sweet story about your dad. Hoping to join everyone at create in May! 🌸
Such pretty cards as always. I sound like a broken record but every example is always so lovely. It was heartwarming to hear Anna’s story of her Dad. I was a Daddy’s girl and I recognize one when I see one. He must be so very proud of the woman she has become. Have a great weekend everyone!
Short & VERY sweet FMF. Like Roxanne, crafting has gotten me through these last few years. Fan Mail Friday has played a big part in that. I cried over your story, Miss Anna. My Dad passed over 10 years ago but you never really stop hurting. It’s enough to know we carry our loved ones in our hearts & memories.
Anna Of all days my PC Mouse has quit working so I’m trying to learn the gizmo below, Then to top it off, we got 8-10" of white stuff called snow * and oh so pretty. So I won’t be able to get out an office supply store for a few days. Oh well, I really am thankful to have power etc.. I had to laugh, my mom put a mini whiskey bottle when dad died and maybe a cigarette in his pocket many years ago. Loved all the cards, wished I had a buckeye now and I haven’t made them in years. Well, thanks for inspiring us and see you Tuesday Buttercup:-)
Anna that was So Nice of you to share your treasure memories of your Dad & Buckeyes. Thanks again!!!
