Hello crafters,

Happy Friday to you! We are so excited to spend this morning connecting with you, reading all of your incredible letters and seeing your fantastic cards up close and personal. There are birthday cards, Christmas cards and more in today’s Fan Mail.

Before we dive in, we want to say thank you to everyone who joined us on AGTV for our Christmas in July show this past Wednesday. We had an amazing show featuring some of our most beloved holiday crafting items, a chat with our friend Tiffany and winners galore! AGTV is the place to be — if you missed out on Christmas in July (or any of our past live shows), you can watch anytime here.

It’s time to read today’s wonderful fan mail!

Ann made the most beautiful beautiful card. She said that most of her days are shared with her extension collection of dies, papers, flower stickers, new dies, stamps, sentiment inserts and more. We loved hearing that her brother in law thinks that she is so talented that she needs an agent; we agree!

We are honored to have known our friend Diane for 4 years now! This community has brought us so many beautiful friends! She sent this incredible birthday card and more for today’s fan mail.

Here are the rest of Diane’s pretty projects.

Babs’s card is such a winter delight! From the gorgeous Christmas Truck Die to the wonderful, winter scene we love this card!

Carmen thanked us for Crop at Home 3 and all of the techniques that she learned. Her beautiful cards are so great and we loved seeing your smiling face!

Jimmie Lynn made an incredible scrapbook page to send birthday wishes. From the lovely paper doll ladies to the pearl encrusted cake, this is a page that is full of celebration!

Don’t forget to join us next week for our Merry Craftsmas shows on HSN this Tuesday, July 25th at 1am, 12pm, 5pm and 9pm. We have the most amazing shows planned for you! Check out the new Anna Griffin crafts already posted in our store on HSN!

  • Anna & crafters –
    Late reply but I love these creations! 👏🏼😍👏🏼 Wonderful & ideas galore. Thank you all for the inspiration.

  • Such beautiful creations. Everyone is just so talented. I feel blessed to be able to share in all this beauty.

    I am sure your Dad can see that beautiful Christmas card. Your love for him and all he means to you shines through. A piece of him will blossom in each card made with the dies inspired by him.

    I can’t believe it is already Craftmas in July. So excited to see what projects are made with all your new goodies.

    Happy Crafting!

  • All creative and lovely works. How lucky the ladies in CA were to meet you!
    And what a great time in London must have been had meeting royalty.
    Anna, you are so good to read all the notes enclosed with the cards.

  • I love seeing all the beauties that are sent to you, Anna. Fellow crafters are the nicest people to have as a friend. Thank you for sharing the love .

  • Ann, you picked one of my favorite flowers for your card, but I just want to come over and play with your puppy!!!
    Diane, great cards, Anna’s birthday card the light blue one is GORGEOUS.
    Fantastic idea to add to a Black and White base Babs, your card looks sooo good!!!
    Carmen I laughed out loud when I saw your card, I have had cats all my life. Just the other day I had to dig through the GIANT recycling bin to find the tiny candle die from CARTE NOEL FS BOX, my Bandit knocked it to the floor, and I sweep it up in the trash, I found it at the very bottom!!!
    Jimmie, I just LOVE looking at all the details in your scrapbook page for Anna’s birthday. Start with the flower garden out the WINDOWS and the beautiful DRAPES. Then your CAKE needs a CARTE CANTON BLEU table of course. And we know Anna Loves her Snarky Ladies. Plus, the ten other techniques Love it!!! CHINA CABINET is everyone’s favorite.
    Everyone have a great weekend STAY COOL!!!

  • How beautiful! It’s striking, to see how much Anna is loved and appreciated by this community….she must be doing something right😊 And the creations are so pretty. I especially liked Bab’s winter scene and truck card. I like when someone takes the extra effort to create a whole story with their cards and this is great. And I always appreciate Jimmie Lynn’s talent. The compositions and colors and embellishments are always so cohesive; her scrapbooks must be a sight to behold! Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend 😊

  • What awesome cards and projects this week. You are such a lucky gal. Loved seeing Geri’s cards and gifts. Loved Diane’s card, Love the screens, love all of the beautiful cards.

  • I said it before and I will say it again….love “FMF”! Beautiful 😍

  • Enjoyed this Friday’s blog of shared cards so much. I got a kick out of Carmen’s mischievous cat card…so funny & cute! And, Bab’s red Christmas truck is magnificent! I love the old fashioned look! Thanks for sharing all of the many others too…I love watching how excited you present each & every submission, Anna. You’re so appreciative ❣️

  • Beautiful works of art today! Dianne’s card is simply a stunner! I so look forward to FMF!
    Thanks all for the inspiration.

  • Would love to be able to access all of the Christmas items (especially the mini Christmas Tree dies and the Christmas Wishes) on either TSC or the AG site when paying to be a member and living in Canada. It is quite frustrating. Please help your AG crafters in Canada 🍁

  • Great Fan Mail Friday How is love seeing other crafters ideas and they’re so beautiful. Keep up the good work, everyone❤️

  • I hate to name a fave over the other beautiful cards, but the one that had the truck in front of the barn was OUTSTANDING. See I was raised on (and live on) a farm with a big red barn. That is so perfect, and has many memories.

    • I agree with you this was an outstanding card. I liked how the truck was used and the winter background

  • It is so hot right now it is hard for me to think of Christmas. Once again, you inspire me, Anna.

  • Babs’s Christmas Truck card is absolutely wonderful!. This would make a terrific Christmas display on it’s own table. All of the cards again, are so inspiring and beautiful
