Hi everyone,
Happy October, crafters! There is something so inspiring about this time of year. The rich colors, crisp days and cozy evenings make us want to settle into the craft room and create something beautiful. We’re so grateful to share another Fan Mail Friday with you, our wonderful crafting community.
There is plenty of creativity to celebrate. We have some seasonal inspiration, a little Halloween magic and more crafty fun to enjoy together!
We got the most amazing card from our friend, Yvonne In Westminster, MD, who joined us as a guest on AGTV. She combined elements from our Dahlia Ultimate Papercrafting Kit and a gorgeous navy Peacock Frame Die.
Jenny from Brementon, WA made the most gorgeous gilded fall card with the Woodland Concentric Frame Dies and fall embellishments. She won the With Gratitude Rub On Sentiments and is enjoying them.
Our friend, Sharen in Cabot, Arkansas used the Peacock Dies and pretty metallic paper to send us a gratitude card along with a sweet poem. She is excited to join us for Create this November 13th-15th. She crafts full time, and loves being creative with our products.
We wanted to share the poem she included:
The Difference You Have Made- Catherine Pulsifer
You will never know
The difference you have made.
You in my life,
I would never trade.
Your thoughtfulness is shown
In your kindness and caring ways.
When my life was full of clouds
You brought the sunshine rays.
The words, thank you,
Just don't seem to express,
The difference you have
Made in my happiness.
Tamar in Delray Beach, Florida sent an awe inspiring box full of her immense creativity. She included floral folios in a box, a gorgeous Jack mini album and even a Fleur Rouge pop out card.
Such great details, Tamar!
Love the Jasmine details!

Great fall inspiration. I need to get started on my Halloween cards.
Tamar is an AMAZING artist and makes the most incredible folios and albums.
Happy Crafting!
Anna, I want to thank you again for all the inspiration I receive as you graciously share these beautiful cards every FMF. Your inviting Griffinites to interview with you is adding also to the experience. I share with my two AG friends materials and pass on the fun. Each card we share pours out care and love to those recipients, thus growing this community! Thank you so much for your generosity!
What an array of talent!
So glad you got my card. The other cards are so beautiful! Sending❤️ see you at Create.
What fabulous projects and gifts for this Fanmail Friday! Lush colors…lots of texture…and sincere notes from the heart. Thank you for sharing my card to thank you Anna for my time as a guest on AGTV and those great dies! I was beginning to get concerned that it hadn’t been delivered as I mailed it at the post office on Labor Day! Be Fearlessly Authentic…when I saw that I knew exactly who should receive it as a card. Thank you for everything you and your team do for us♥️♥️♥️
