Hi everyone,
Today’s Fan Mail Friday is extra special because it’s all about gratitude! Our hearts are so full after receiving so many thoughtful thank you cards and sweet notes from this incredible community. Hearing how much you enjoyed Create and seeing your excitement after winning prizes during the event truly means the world to us.
We loved reading your kind words about the classes, the projects, the inspiration and the friendships made along the way. Your creativity and enthusiasm are what make this community so warm, welcoming and inspiring. It brings us so much joy to know that Create made such a meaningful impact for so many of you. Whether you attended from near or far, joined us live or crafted along at home, you helped make the event unforgettable. Thank you for sharing your talents, your stories and your beautiful hearts with us!
We are endlessly grateful for this amazing community and all the kindness you continue to send our way!
Diane from Plymouth, MA sent the most cheerful card to let us know how much she enjoyed Create Spring 2026. She talked about how much she liked learning new techniques, even though she is normally a card maker. We love seeing the Lizzie Collection; it's an oldie but a goodie!

Paula from Columbia, SC sent this gorgeous gilded card to say thank you for winning an Anna Griffin Gild Hot Foiling Machine! We hope you enjoy, and we look forward to seeing more of your gorgeous, gilded cards.

Kris from New Hyde Park, NY sent in this lovely Grace card, and wrote the most beautiful letter about her Create experience. She told us how her daughters took part in it with her, and about how she connected with others and made some amazing friends and projects! Taking a chance and a leap of faith is always worth it!

Sherry from Liverpool, NY won the scavenger hunt during our Create event, and wrote to tell us how much fun she had in the craft room. We are loving the gorgeous trellis album card she sent in to tell us all about it, and about how she loves our community of crafters.

It makes us so happy to hear about how happy Create Spring 2026 made our friend Carol in White, GA. She won a ticket to Create during one of our giveaways and had an awesome time. Fabulous!

Autumn in Garland, TX was also a lucky winner! She won one of our prize totes during the event, and sent in her lovely thank you card complete with mascara roses and a pretty pink bow. You are so welcome, and we are glad you are enjoying your winnings!

If you’ve ever thought about sending in a card or letter, we would absolutely love to hear from you! Fan Mail Friday is one of our favorite ways to celebrate this wonderful creative community and connect with all of you in such a meaningful way.
Your cards, letters and thoughtful messages brighten our days more than you know. Every handmade creation tells a story, and we are always so inspired by the creativity, encouragement and joy shared through your mail. Thank you again for being part of our creative family and for making events like Create so special. Your support, excitement and kindness continue to inspire us every single day.
Send us something in the mail! You can send to 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324.
Fridays are for MasterCraft, and there is a new class waiting for you featuring today's Daily Drop!
Love,
Anna
