A Beautiful Holiday Beginning

We kicked off the show with our Folded Christmas Tree Card Making Kit, creating an elegant holiday card from start to finish. Anna demonstrated how simple it is to build dimensional Christmas trees with layered papers, embellishments and festive greetings. This all-inclusive kit makes holiday cardmaking both easy and beautiful, whether you're creating a few special cards or an entire Christmas card collection.

Wrapped with Holiday Cheer

Next, we created charming gift-themed cards using the Christmas Present Dies paired with gorgeous Ice Blue Matte Foil Cardstock. Anna shared tips for layering metallic papers, creating dimensional bows and adding luxurious shine that makes every project feel like a beautifully wrapped present.

Poinsettias that Wow

Holiday florals took center stage with the Poinsettia Scroll Frame 3D Dies and coordinating Poinsettia Stickers. Anna showed how easy it is to combine intricate die cuts with dimensional stickers to create elegant Christmas cards with stunning layers and classic holiday style.

A Special Guest Moment

We also loved celebrating the incredible creativity of our Griffinite community, welcoming special guest Apryl Harmon and sharing beautiful projects that showcased just how magical holiday crafting can be. It was wonderful sharing creative conversation, inspiration and holiday excitement together. Special guest moments like these make our AGTV community even more special.

The Finishing Touches

Sometimes it's the little details that make all the difference. The new Holiday Photo Mat and Card Layer Bundle paired beautifully with the luxurious Velvet Double Bows, creating polished, layered cards with rich texture and timeless elegance. These versatile embellishments instantly elevate your holiday projects.

Celebrate the Season with Jasmine

The show wrapped up with the beautiful Jasmine Holiday Papercrafting Collection along with coordinating cardstock, borders and embellishments. Rich colors, elegant florals and festive accents came together effortlessly as Anna demonstrated how easy it is to create sophisticated Christmas cards, scrapbook pages and holiday keepsakes using this coordinating collection.

We also shared inspiration from our Anna Griffin Membership, featuring gorgeous projects from the Gilded Lily and Fresh Fruit Finishing School classes. With exclusive classes, members-only events and creative inspiration every month, there's always something new to discover.
