Fan Mail Friday- October 17th, 2025

Hi everyone,

It’s Fan Mail Friday, and things are getting delightfully spooky around here! As the seasons shift, we’re feeling all the warm fuzzies—and just a hint of Halloween mischief. Thank you for filling our hearts (and mailbox!) with your sweet words, beautiful cards and festive cheer. Your creativity truly lights up our week, and it’s such a treat to see how you’re crafting with the seasons!

Watch the video:

Karen sent a gorgeous gazebo card with tropical vibes that gives summer one last shining moment. With glittery shimmer on the roof and a heartfelt note, she reminded us just how special longtime connections can be— she’s been crafting with us for over 25 years!

Doris is fully in the fall spirit with her Happy Halloween wagon card. Everything matched perfectly, from the stamps to the return address, and the card was full of whimsical autumn charm, owls and pumpkins.

Mary Beth, the queen of interactive cards, wowed us again with her signature pulley-style Halloween card. It came with Faded Rose flowers and a spooky-fun poem and a special note addressed to Georgie and Duke from Boris the cat!

Marie shared a show-stopping gothic Halloween card with elegant black glitter, fun patterns, a rosette and a joyful mix of fall elements from Crop at Home 5. She also included a delightful surprise: her mom Hannah’s lemon snow bars recipe, created as part of a recipe exchange in her Griffinite group. We can’t wait to bake and taste these at Create!

We are beyond excited for all that’s ahead, especially as we gear up for Create. Whether you’re joining us live or just crafting along in spirit, we hope you feel how much you’re a part of this amazing community.

If you’ve been thinking about sending a card or note, now’s the perfect time! Fan Mail Friday is our way of celebrating you, your talents, your stories and your heart. Join in the fun and send us your creation to:

99 Armour Drive NE
Atlanta, GA 30324

We can’t wait to hear from you!

Love,


Anna

I would love to participate in Create but the timing is in conflict with running our dogs in the AKC Master National in Giddings, Texas this year. I love seeing all the exciting things people make. I know everyone will have a super experience and I’m happy for them. ;-)
