Hello crafters,
Happy Friday to you, and happy Fan Mail Friday to us! We received such wonderful mail from crafters all over the country, and nothing brings us more joy every week. It is truly the best to be able to connect with our pen pals each week and learn a little more about each of you. It was fun to see how many of you attended and enjoyed our Crop at Home 3 event this week along with all of the Mother’s Day love.
Come ooh and ahh over this week’s amazing fan mail.
Yadyra’s blast from the past card is oh so pretty! Thank you for sending it; hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day!
Sandy said that her card was from one fur mom to another! Her letter included sweet pictures of 2 horses and 3 cute pups!
Sharon wrote to tell us how enjoyable Crop at Home 3 was, and how she has made life long friends along the way and new ones during our last event.
Yukari sent us a gorgeous scrapbook page and card made with the Canton Bleu Papers and Embellishments from Crop at Home 3. She made new friends and met up with old ones in the virtual craft room!
Thank you so much to everyone who sent something into the office this week. We really cherish each and every card, letter and project that you send our way. If you would like to submit something to us, you can mail it to our office at 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324. In the comments this week, let us know what your favorite part of Fan Mail Friday is! Next week, join us on Wednesday, May 24th at 12pm for our May Finishing School Live on AGTV.
Bye for now,
Anna

Fan mail Friday is my very favorite “Anna Day”! I look forward to hearing you read everyone’s notes and show off their works of art. I especially love that you respond with a genuineness that we all feel and love. Your products are beautiful but the energy that you put forth into the universe is what keeps us all tuning in to see you on our phones, TVs or computer things. One of these days I will get a card off to you.
What a beautiful “crop” of cards! It is so nice to see you being appreciated! You and your team are deserving of all the praise!
I love being inspired from others on Fan Mail Friday and then getting to play in my craft room.
The cards are beautiful. I really like the wind shield wiper card. I want that one. All the cards sent are so inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Anna & team
CAH 3 was amazing the best one yet. Early posting of prep was very helpful. I finished all my pages during event a first for me. The private sale was great. I like getting extra pouches for more pages. Looking forward to create. I like getting to buy ticket for next event right afterwards. I haven’t gotten to do craft room yet 🤞 for next time. I ❤️ fan mail friday & AGTV
It’s nice how personal it is so positive and uplifting
Thank you
Just want to express my gratitude to Anna and everyone who made CAH3 an incredible event. Every aspect of CAH3 was epic. It must have been a Herculean task to bring it all together with so much planning and production. Despite the connection problems for those who could not use their own devices to achieve steady streaming, knowing the replay was there is everything. I had flawless reception using a USB-C powered Apple iPad Air continually plugged in. I upgraded for CAH2 after finding my go to iPad just didn’t have the thru put of power with USB only. The streaming needs a lot of steady juice. I am fortunate to have very good internet connections. My laptop computer is a new, work based MACiOS, but I do not expose that device to any source that is not work related so no Craft Room for me. I’m okay with that as a PDT person who wanted keep working after hours.
I just received an extra box I purchased from the post event sale in part because of the incredible PDF instructions included; they are my jam. It’s now here and I am over the moon with joy having the PDF, not to mention everything else especially the Canton Bleu pouch. I want to echo that the prep making us complete all the die cutting before Friday made a night and day difference in my experience. Yes, it took a lot longer to prep, and I was a bit confused at times, but I avoided costly mistakes. I held off on a couple of spreads just to leave a bit of flexibility in my layouts, but I changed little. All the three paper sets are so beautiful. The “ahhh, it’s so pretty” feeling never left. Putting together such a complete package of everything so well thought out and clear is an incredible feat.Of course, I now hope for the exclusive CAH3 papers you put inside EACH pouch to appear in a 12×12 post-CAH 3 bundle, Lol. 😃 what a dream come true that would be. For now, I am just full up happy to be able to make these scrapbooks. Looking forward to CREATE 9. 🤩💕🫶🏼 Anne Cronin
