Hi crafters,
February’s Papercrafting Mystery Box carries us gently from winter into the promise of spring. Inside, you’ll find a beautiful collection of antique botanicals from years past including: timeless florals, delicate engravings and layered papers that have been gathered from the archive and refreshed for the season ahead.
Where January was all about Valentine’s Day encouraged us to share love, this box is all about renewal! Spring is on the horizon, and these botanicals are ready to bloom in your craft room!
Designed for Beautiful Layers
As always, every element inside te Mystery Box works together seamlessly. The antique botanicals designs pair perfectly with the included cardstock, folded cards, embellishments and finishing touches, making it easy to create layered designs without overthinking your combinations.
Start with a patterned base. Frame it with coordinating layers. Add a botanical focal point. Finish with a sentiment and a dimensional embellishment. The result is polished and professional!
And because these florals are so timeless, your projects can lean in any direction:
- Elegant Easter greetings
- Thoughtful spring birthdays
- Thank you notes inspired by nature
- Just-because cards to brighten someone’s day
Spring crafting is about lightness, color and possibility. This collection captures that spirit beautifully!
Inspiration in Bloom
Sabrina from our craft design team has created a stunning assortment of cards using the contents of this month’s box (with a few favorite tools from her craft room). You’ll see how layering the antique prints with the included dies creates a look that feels both nostalgic and fresh.
Watch the video to see as she:
- Unboxes the February Mystery Box
- Builds dimension with layered botanicals
- Frames florals for a gallery-inspired look
Crafting into the Season
As you craft with this month’s box, think about who might need a touch of spring in their mailbox. A friend who could use encouragement. A family member celebrating a milestone. Someone who simply deserves a beautiful surprise.
Here are some examples that we have to share with you.
We can’t wait to see what you create with February’s Mystery Box. Share your spring-inspired cards and stories with us at RSVP@annagriffin.com. Your creations are always such a joy to see!
Here’s to fresh blooms, new beginnings and the beauty of crafting something by hand.
Love,

I love this February mystery box. The papers, embellishments and die get an A+ from me. I outlined the die, cut it out and used it as a background for the honeycomb die. I was able to inlay the contrasting color. I can’t say enough about the floral embellishments. This box was a great surprise and a real mystery solved. Thank you Anna and Staff.
Fantastic job Sabrina!! Great ideas all around. I really love this die too!
The cards are incredibly creative and I’m wondering if the scrapbook pages are somewhere else? They pages were so much fun last month!
Anna, I absolutely love our curated mystery boxes! We can use every piece whether we make a card or a page! The How-To Videos are an exceptional touch to the already amazing box. I love the way your mind works! Cant wait to make more beautiful things!!!
I love the box it stunning and so beautiful. When I opened it, I was stunned what beautiful items were in the box. If this is what to expected for every box, we are going to be in for a treat out of this world. Everyone have a great day and may God bless you all.
