Hello crafters,

Welcome to this week’s Fan Mail Friday. We have such pretty cards and wonderful messages to share with you! There is nothing that we love more than to hear about your love of crafting, and how you use your talents and gifts to touch the lives of those near and dear to you. From sending cards for birthdays to get well and everything in between, we know that the beautiful things that you make and send have such a lasting impact. We are in awe of our kind and talented community!

Let’s catch up on the mail from this week!

We are counting down the days until Halloween like our friend, Vickey! There are only 38 days to go until pumpkins glow, trick or treaters come for candy and all of your spooky cards have been delivered!

Sweet Sandi sent this pretty, pink birthday card. Thank you for the well wishes! We are celebrating all year long!

Dominga won on Win It Wednesday, and said that it was like Christmas morning. She sent a gorgeous thank you card full of flowers! Isn’t her easel card gorgeous?

Sharon was also a winner, and won the 3D Victorian Concentric Dies! She included some lovely stamping and such a nice message inside the card. You are very welcome for your win, Sharon!

Allison wrote to tell us how much she enjoys our blog and making cards. She also was one of our Win It Wednesday winners, and sent this pretty thank you card.

We want to send a big hug to everyone who reached out to us this week. We love hearing from you and about you each week! If you have been wondering if you should send us a card or project, here is your sign! Mail it to our office at 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324 Attn: Fan Mail Friday. Getting mail is week is our very favorite!

We have a really exciting event for you on Friday, September 30th at 12pm Eastern. We are streaming on AGTV the Outside the Box show where we will be launching new products, have special guests, a sneak peek and so much more! You don’t want to miss all of the fun we have for you on our new streaming platform, and you can join us here to be a part of the fun.

We will see you next Friday!

Love,

Anna

  • I’m looking forward to Friday, your new “ AGTV Outside The Box Show”. It’s always interesting to see you demonstrate your new products. Streaming is an excellent idea.
    Everyone has such lovely , creative ideas this week! Who knew a pumpkin could become Count Dracula!? How clever !!

  • Beautiful, as always. I have been making sympathy cards for my husband’s family as one of his sisters passed away. Not my favorite to make, but the most important cards one can send. Since my Crafting Soul Sister gifted me an AG Membership I will try to post them in Finishing School. That is if this analog girl can figure out the techno world. I like putting a butterfly on them. Because what tbe caterpillar calls the end of the world God calls a butterfly. I view it as a symbol of new life.

    Maybe we should name Vickie’s pumpkin
    Jackula.

    Happy Crafting!!

  • Beautiful cards! Thanks to all for sharing. Happy New Year to Ilayne. Beauty knows no boundaries! I wish I had gotten something sent in. Maybe next month!

  • I am so happy that you showed Ilayne’s wonderful Jewish New Year card! As a frequent recipient of her imaginitive artful cards, I think it’s great that you shared this card with your fans! Thank you!

  • Sorry but the latest set of Heartfelt embellishment dies are really awesome and more flexible and cost effective. Sorry to say.

  • Dear Anna,
    I want to express my appreciation for your recognition of the beautiful card for the Jewish New Year!! Most of the craft companies do not include Jewish holidays in their blogs and/or publicity so I was quite pleased to see the impressive and creative new year’s card on today’s Fan Mail Friday Blog!
    Have a good week-end,
    Ileen

  • Dear Anna,

    I was so pleased to hear that my good friend, Ilayne, was recognized on your blog. I am so amazed at the creativity that comes from each card she makes. The Jewish new year card is just one of her masterpieces!

    Most importantly, you, Anna, recognized her talent. And, for that, I am so happy!!!

  • Thanks for all the beautiful products. I really enjoy making my cards. Everyone really loves them. Thanks for helping me with making such beautiful cards

  • Vicky’s Count Dracula pumpkin is just fantastic! I knew I made a mistake not buying the pumpkin. I went against my better judgment. 🙁

  • I feel so bad when this day comes around because I get so inspired and then don’t make anything to send you. Someday soon I hope this will change and you will delight in something I make and send to you.

  • I love the Botanical cards I want more ideas for them. I have several and some velum overlays. Can anyone tell me how to get the bees and dragonflies? Would LOVE to have some of these!

  • Wonderful celebration of all that is creative and fun in the world of Anna Griffin. Happy Friday everyone!! Love you, Anna!!

  • I love getting to see everyone’s work. It’s not only fun but it’s a great growing experience.
    Thanks for sharing Anna!

  • Good afternoon Anna!
    Thanks so much for FMF. I really enjoy your sharing of everything that is mailed to you. Great inspiration for us all, especially me lol!
    Have a fabulous weekend everyone and May God bless you in a very special way!

  • Dracula Pumpkin was so cool she should get something. It was so brilliant. I want that Pumpkin die now. Will you add the hair die too? Could do all the holidays Rabbit ears, top hat for st. Pat day.

  • still wondering where the famous Richard ran off to…I realize no answers appear on this site and I am not affiliated with the other outlets..but I do miss his contributions.

  • I love the dracula pumpkin. I am so enamored at the creativity of others. All of the cards lovely.

  • Loving the vampire pumpkin card. How was the hair done? I have also seen the Frankenstein and a mummy. So creative and amazing.

  • Another fun FMF… so many beautiful and fun creations. Thank you Anna for sharing your mail with us, it is a great closing to the week. 🙂😍❤

  • It is so fun to see all the different creations! I have not sent a card for a while so it is time. Scrapbooking and card making have been so much fun over the years. Has filled some of the void from losing loved ones! Have a great weekend. Thanks to all those that share their projects.

  • Each beautiful card is like a BIG (((HUG))), and I’m very grateful for the joy of creating that shines from each and all in this Griffinite Community! Thank you for sharing, Anna! And, thank you for being exemplary!

  • You are a very special person Ms Anna Griffin. It is so nice to see all the beautiful creations that are sent to you. Enjoy your weekend everyone!!
