Fan Mail Friday – Highlighting You

By Anna Griffin // //

Comments: 74

Hi crafters,

We are so glad that it’s Friday! We cherish our time together, and love sharing the mail with you each week. Today we got to hear from new friends, see old paper collections and read about what’s going on in your life! Reading your words, well wishes and about what’s going on in your lives is the very best. We look forward to it every week.

Let’s see what has come in to the office this week!

Jo won our Rose Papercrafting Collection on Win It Wednesday! She just met her granddaughter, born in the middle of Covid and plans on making a beautiful scrapbook for her during Crop at Home 2!

Barbra sent in her first card for Fan Mail Friday! She loves our products, inspiring blogs and is looking forward to our crafting events this year.

Doris sent this pretty pink card, complete with a surprise inside! Opening the card reveals a birdcage from our Collapsible Birdcage Dies. We look forward to crafting with you in just a few, short weeks Doris!

Here’s Doris’s birdcage!

Donna mailed us this gorgeous Carte Noire card. She added pearls and jewels to make it extra special!

Chris sent this joyful card to us, and gave the option to send on to a friend. If you look closely, you’ll see a cute little friend in the window!

We want to say thank you for the lovely cards you sent in this week. If you would like to send us something for Fan Mail Friday, you can mail it to 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30324.

We are excited for all of the amazing things happening in May! From HSN Craft Day on May 3rd to Crop at Home 2 May 13th- 15th, we’re going to have a really fun time together!

Bye for now,

Anna

 

  • I absolutely love seeing how everyone uses their AG products! We could all use the same items and have entirely different creations. Inspiration and creativity abound.

  • I love them all. You all are so creative. It is so easy with the help of Anna.

  • I would love to add these to my Anna collection. I missed out on the train.😩😩

  • Love fan Mail Friday and love to win anything that is being given away

  • Thank you for sharing your talent ladies! Beautiful cards. I love the paper tricks on Barbara’s card. I love the Easter rub ons and glad to hear we will have Halloween rub ons. I get so many ideas from fan mail Friday.

  • Beautiful as always. The love of Crafting everyone sends you brings me much joy and happiness.

    That AG 21 is a beautiful paper. Yes I remember it. Yes I may still have a sheet of that in my Anna Paper Stash.

    I prepped my first class for Create Crop@Home 2. Looking forward to Anna May Zing Event. To anyone on the fence about doing a Virtual Event with Anna…just do it. You will have the time of your life. These events are just so much fun. So please join us.

    Happy Crafting!!!

    My favorite on the preview was the cut and emboss sports folders. I love to make your cards and scrapbooks, but I really need more masculine card ideas and I would love to get this.

  • Enjoy everything that you create. I enjoy every card that is on fan mail. Excited to see the beautiful cards that will be made with the train at Christmas. Greatfull for any gift but thankful for dies that can be used for adult and children cards. Train is a must.

  • Everyone is so darn talented! I love seeing the variety of ideas, people using the same products and each card is so unique ❤️.

  • I just wanted to say thank you, for the rose paper set that arrived today. And for the Win it Wednesday.

  • I love all the cards! I love the bird cage inside of the card, great idea! I’m looking forward to the halloween rub ons. Thanks Anna!💕

  • Love all of these, but Doris’ bird cage surprise is a winner, as is Chris’ little kitty friend peeking from the window!

  • Everyone is an inspiration!! What beautiful and unique cards. All to you Anna, love you.

  • Love all the projects this week! I especially enjoy Chris’ window card and revitalizing the hem tape ribbon bow – truly special. Have an amazing weekend Anna and all Griffinites!

  • The sharing on Fan Mail Friday is just great. Love Doris card! Good Job!

  • Yay! Bravo!

  • DORIS….. You clever girl you!!!!! Now I am inspired and must get to work on next years’ Birthday cards…..will add a note to the back of each card with a tag on.. “Doris made me do this!”…….thank you for staying up late so I didn’t have to!

    Wishing you and your team and all the crafters a fabulous CROP AT HOME 2 next week

  • Always a pleasure to see all the beautiful cards that crafters come up with each week ❤️

  • Oh indeed, Anna, I am watching and “Yes It Is” (crocus from earliest paper collections).

  • OMG! How beautiful & clever! I love the kitty peeking in from the window & the pop out bird cage. Between the paper patterns & the classy dies, every card is beautifully exquisite. I’ve never mailed in a card before but they inspire me to make one to send to Anna.

  • Everyone’s creations are beautiful! So many wonderful ideas. Looking forward to Craft day on May 3 but most of all I can’t wait for Crop at Home 2!

  • Love Fan mail Friday!! I’m always so impressed by the beautiful creations the Griffinites send in. The cards are so beautiful and creative. I always learn something new and clever! Thank you Anna for displaying these cards!

  • One of my favorite times of the week too!! Wonderful, creative talent shown this week! Thanks for sharing everyone! Have a blessed and crafty weekend too!!

  • I am so bad, I have so many of your dies and have not sent you anything for Fan Mail. I have to change that fact. Love all of the creativity and will definitely change this situation. Thanks for the inspiration.

  • A Shorter but just as Sweet FMF. ALL of Anna’s fans appreciate the talent we have been able to come up with. Love that craftspiration.

  • Thank you for sharing your beautiful, handmade cards, Anna!!! They are soooo lovely!!! The collapsing pop-up birdcage is very clever. Anna, you are such a great inspiration to us all.

  • I absolutely love the collapsible bird cage, this idea is brilliant. Thanks you Doris! I will be sending my friend a card using this idea, she just purchased a parrot 🦜 so I will put a photo of her new bird inside the cage… so perfect. She’ll love it!

  • To all the makers ; the most beautiful handcrafted cards … the craftsman ship is absolutely the best of the best…. Be proud to sign your name to each and ever one… You have a true gift….

  • I’m new to the website but not to your fabulous products. I’ve been a fan since the QVC days. I love fan friday! To be able to share ideas is very inspiring. I will be watching may 3rd.

  • I picked up two ideas from the cards today. The collapsable birdcage is amazing and the shadow die shape for the message is so smart. Thanks for sharing, Anna.

  • Morning everyone. DORIS love your BIRDCAGE CARD !!! I hadn’t decided yet on the BIRDCAGE DIE but seeing your beauitful card has now made me add the BIRDCAGE DIE to the wish list. I already have the Birds and Butterflies Stickers so thanks for your creativity.

  • Wow! Such wonderful cards! So much beauty and creativity. Thanks to each of you who sent in a card.

  • Anna, Seeing all these beautiful cards that you have made possible for these ladies to create, makes me smile and bring such joy!
    I hope to get mine out to you soon, especially one that wouldn’t be possible without your generous heart!! My heartfelt Thank you!!

  • Love all the items this week. Doris’ card is so ingenious; love the idea of using the bird cage as a pop out. Also like the idea of using the shadow layers to make the stationary for letters inside the cards.

  • My goodness! Such beautiful cards on this Fan Mail Friday. Thanks for all of the sharing.

  • Nice Card Doris!
    There is a video on YouTube by VianneyCreates. She put out a video on this within the last month if anyone wants to see how it is done. I did leave her a comment that she should send that card in to dear Anna. The name of the Video is called.
    “Gorgeous Pop Out Bird Cage Card Tutorial Using Anna Griffin Dies & Crafter’s Companion Papers!”

  • Hi Anna, thank you for all that you do!!! We enjoy all of the beautiful adventures with you and you take us along! Fan Mail Friday! Truly one of my weekly favorites. I am glad you share them. Great work everyone and I can’t believe in just 2 short weeks CCAH2 will be here. Joy Joy!

  • Beautiful cards everyone loved them all. Everyone have a great relaxing and safe weekend.

  • Beautiful cards everyone. How lovely that you have more firsts joining in to send a card.
