Hello friends,
Happy Friday to you! It has been a busy week here in the office; from Create 10 prep to AGTV, we have a lot of crafting going on! We had many wonderful cards and projects that have come into our office this week, and you know we love to read to mail! We are so happy to be continuing with our Griffinites Give Create below; keep reading to find out if you are a winner.
Let's catch up!
Sherry sent two beautiful cards and a sweet letter. She sent a fall themed card with all of the harvest embellishments and a photo frame card complete with Paris green cardstock! Sherry wrote to say how much she enjoyed interacting with us on AGTV, and how much she is looking forward to Create 10!
Last week Michelle Watson in south Florida gave away a ticket for a crafter longing to attend Create 10. We are happy to announce that Erica Sommers, you are coming to Create! Please email us at RSVP@annagriffin.com to claim your prize. We are so excited to craft together with you!
This week, we have another ticket to give away from someone in our community who wishes to remain anonymous. She wrote, "I remember the first time I attended a Create. It was exciting, loads of fun and beyond my expectations. I want to share that experience and bless someone with a ticket. As I said, I'd love to make someone's dream of going to Create come true."
To win this beautiful gift of generosity tell us in the blog comments what it means to be creative, and what you look forward to the most by being a part of the event.
Good luck everyone! We will be reading your comments and choosing someone to join us at Create 10 thanks to our benevolent, anonymous donor! If you would like to sponsor someone to attend Create 10, please contact our customer service team! We will help you pay it forward!

I am a painter and I have found that card making and scrapbooking is a way to express my creativity and send family and friends some of that creativity on a small scale.
Love the creativity and can’t wait for Create!
Congratulations, Erica Sommers! You will enjoy CREATE 10 papercrafting Event next month, and for many months yet to come, as you find connections with new friends in this creative community! Winning my first CREATE in 2017, I have been fortunate each year since to attend because my husband builds it into our vacation budget—it’s now an ‘annual reunion’ that I wouldn’t miss!
What this Event means most to me, Anna, is the ‘filling up’ of a part of my being—to create is to fulfill the wonder, imagination, and inspiration of every day living, trial AND triumph! A finished project challenges my curiosity, and gratifies my heart and mind; and, there is great satisfaction producing something beautiful to share with others. I would gladly pay forward to another who has longed to participate but has never been able to if I were lucky enough to win once more!
CREATE is a mountain-top experience!
I would love to win a Create 10 ticket as I have never been to one, because simply I cannot afford it. For me being creative, means I’m giving something from the heart not just something you can buy on a store shelf. I like making personalized cards and I never make the same card twice, and I don’t batch make cards either. I love when my recipients receive their cards because they always ask how do I do what I do.
I would look forward to learning new things to do at the create event as I love to learn from others, I’m always looking for new cards to make. Meeting like minded crafters, and simply having fun. And also sharing with my grandmother who is also a cardmaker, we are 40 years apart, and e both love what we do. Thank you to the person who is giving away a ticket, so very generous of you!! I hope one day that I can attend this event. Have a nice day!
Always look forward to FMF. So many unique projects. I have to get a card in the mail again soon!! It’s sitting in the craft room waiting to be mailed!! 🌸
