Hello crafters,
We hope that you had an enjoyable Fourth of July! It's our first Fan Mail Friday in July and we have lots of fun and wonderful things to share with you! This week there are early birthday cards, patriotic cards, new friends and more. Let's dive in to this week's fan mail offerings.
Richard sent a beautiful, scalloped card, photo and poem with us this week. Below is the lovely poem; we had to share!
Why do we love?
A question as old as time,
Echoing through the chambers
Of our hearts and minds.
We love for the laughter
That dances in our souls,
For the warmth of a touch
That makes us feel whole.
We love for the memories
That we hold dear,
For the shared experiences
That bring us near.
We love for the beauty
That surrounds us each day,
For the way it inspires us
In every single way.
We love for the strength
That it gives us to endure,
For the hope it instills
And the trials we can cure.
We love for the connections
That bind us together,
For the sense of belonging
That lasts forever.
So why do we love?
In the end, the answer is clear,
For love is the essence
Of why we are here.
"Why do we Love?" - Zachary Starr

Lovely cards and beautiful poem shared by Richard.
Beautiful cards and Richard’s poem is spot on! 1 Corinthians 13:13 “So faith, hope, love remain these three; but the greatest of these is love”. Diane’s gazebo card with those adorable kitties is just the cutest. Have a great weekend everyone.🥰❤️
Todays Fan Mail Friday has encouraged me to send some cards in now and then! I enjoy seeing the many ways to use my Anna Griffin dies, papers and embellishments.
I live by myself in a remote mountain community, and card making keeps me from feeling isolated or lonely. I send my cards to people all over the world, many ask me where I get my fabulous card supplies.
I think Richard has a crush on you Anna! lol Beautiful cards and a lovely poem.
I loveFan Mail Friday. Today is no exception.
