Yvonne said, “Candy Box Valentine easel card made with the Enchanted 3D Concentric dies and a few other heart dies from my stash. Almost all the papers are Anna. Rose embellishment from Create8. The stopper was cut with a die from the Flower Cart. Sentiment printed from my laptop on white card stock. It reminds me of the old fashioned fancy candy boxes.”

Marie wrote, “I followed an idea I had to make the flower cart a wheelbarrow. I think it works, but what do you think?”

It definitely works; very creative!

Joyce posted, “This is the Valentine card I made for my granddaughter using Anna’s Slimline cut and emboss folders. The pictures are those of her daughters. I love making cards where I can use pictures.”

Kaye shared, “This is a simple card from the Birthday Slimline cardmaking kit. The gold feathers were made with a die from Anna’s Feather Cut & Emboss Dies. Those feather dies create beautiful added interest for cards. (The floral embellishments , I believe, were part of either the Create 6 or Create 7 boxes.)”

Mary said, “This is a Flower Cart birthday card I made for a friend. He works as a floral designer. I tried putting a more masculine spin on the cart design. The background paper is from the Handsome collection. There are two layers to the actual cart die cut. The first layer is from the bronze matte foil offset under the top layer that ended up being the peachy matte foil in Anna’s newest auto ship collection. The canopy is two additional layers to give some dimension. I had to include his white poodle fur baby in the design along with a kitty to balance it out.”

What a great, custom card!

Beth said, “This diorama card is for my husband Joe. A mixture of old and new dies and embellishments. I love how it all comes together. I added a pocket to the back for a removable signature card. I covered the spine with a Dresden border and trimmed it with tiny iridescent pearls. And finally pink ribbon to tie it closed.”

Sheri said, “I had a whole day of crafting yesterday. Love that you can mix and match Anna’s products. Fancy Flocked Card Layers mixed well and used a round sentiment that compliments the wheel shape.”

Barbara posted, “This took me several days to deign the base of the cart in Adobe Photo Shop, then cutting it out on My Cricut machine in craft board: Then running the Anna Griffin Flower cart Die though my Empress 5 times to have enough material to cover the entire project. The extras in the Flower cart cart kit made up the rest of the look.”

Sonya wrote, “I am working on my valentines from the Enchanted Vellum Toppers. Love this kit!”

Diane shared, “Using some of Anna’s heart dies mixing previous versions with newer ones but it never gets old.”
