Fan Mail Friday- July 18th, 2025

Hi everyone,

It’s Fan Mail Friday—our very favorite time of the week—and what a week it has been! We started things off with a member-only show, went straight into Craft Day with HSN on Monday night and all day Tuesday, and wow, did we have a great time! Thank you for joining us and making it such a special experience. All this fun has us thinking ahead to Create this November, and we’re feeling the excitement already.

But before we get there, we have another treat coming your way— join us live on TikTok Live (follow us @theannagriffin) with HSN this Tuesday, July 22nd at 2pm EST! It’s going to be so much fun, and we can’t wait to connect with you there.

Watch the video:

Yvonne shared a beautiful Astrid inspired project and a touching letter. She learned the Greek word “meraki,” meaning to do something with soul and creativity, which perfectly describes how she crafts.

Our dear friend Penny checked in with a fabulous July package! She sculpted flowers from our Lian paper embellishments, diecut our lovely gold foil and sent in a whole bouquet of dazzling dimensional beauty. Aren't these gorgeous?

Anita sent a cheerful birthday card with thoughtful words inside. She also included screen captures from past Create events, a wonderful walk down memory lane.

Marie created a stunning Antique Botanical and gold card and shared some deeply moving thoughts. She believes that our paths don’t cross by chance and reminded us to pay attention to the lessons and blessings we receive from others. Her card was as meaningful as her message!

Every note, every handmade card and every kind word you send means the world to us. We are constantly amazed by your talent, your generosity and the love you share with us and the community. If you’ve ever thought about sending something in, we would love to hear from you! Fan Mail Friday is your spotlight— a time to celebrate your creativity and heart.

Mail your creations to 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324. We can’t wait to hear from you!
