These flowers will make your cards, scrapbook pages and paper projects out of this world beautiful! Use a popsicle stick, burnisher or even your Empress to adhere.

Curve and curl your petals to form life-like flowers and add them until your heart’s content. Create tonal flowers, multicolored flowers and even use both designs together on your paper projects.
Nothing says celebration like a cake! The Simply Rocking Birthday Card Making Kit will allow you to make 12 beautiful birthday cards with ease. Everything you need is inside the folio, which makes it great to keep in your desk or bring on the go.

I like so many others love all your kits and dies. I don’t have the handbag die and would love to win it. However I have never attended a Create event. I didn’t know about them until 2021 when I got my empress machine and a lot of your beautiful dies, so of course I would love to win the Create 9 event. Your paper are a wonderful giveaway too. I mean I would love any of the above beautiful gifts.
Dear Anna,
Love the presentation. If I could choose my favorite item from today, it would be the flower dies. What beautiful results. I have your other flower dies, but these are my favorite. Especially the daisy. Thank you
Hi Anna – big fan of cut & emboss folders. Great idea with the flowers! I don’t mean to sound (or be) selfish but I nominate me for Create! Trying to swing it on my own and I’m not sure I’ll make it. The preview of projects, oh my! The victorian ornament is right up my alley! The trellis book is gorgeous. And I just have to be there! 🧚♀️🫶
Anna, thanks to you and your team for all the wonderful products offered this year. I am attending Create 9 and would love to nominate my dear friend, Betty M to receive Create 9. She is a very talented crafter and has made beautifully designed scrapbooks, Advent calendars, and cards for her family and friends for years. Most importantly, she is a loving caregiver to many of her family members. She helps her parents( both in their nineties) with medical appointments and daily needs. In addition, she cares for her husband who has special needs. She also cares for their little dog that requires shots and special care. In addition to all of that, she is a fantastic grandmother and attends sports, church, and school activities to support her four grandchildren. It is difficult for her to carve out time to craft but I joined her several weeks ago and we spent an afternoon making Coffin box cards and Cornucopia Easel cards. It was such a joyful and special time for us. She would be thrilled to be able to participate in Create 9 from home. I know she would share many of the beautiful creations with her loved ones and friends. Thank you for considering my sweet friend, Betty.
Oh my gosh! As soon as I saw the Slimline Floral Cut and Emboss Folders I knew I had to have them! I love to put flowers on my cards but they’re so time consuming to make. Your new folders are going to make them quick and easy (and way more beautiful than I could ever do on my own)!
I would love to nominate my niece Heather Sage for the ticket to Create 9. There’s no way I could tell you how wonderful of a person she is in this space. She’s kind, thoughtful, caring, a great mom to her little one, and the best person I know. She would do anything to help another human being even if they were a stranger. Whenever I get my “happy Monday” texts they put a smile on my face. She’s an x-ray tech and would never do something like this for herself. She is the most deserving person I know and I love her to pieces!
