By Anna Griffin // //

Comments: 79

Hello crafters,

Happy Good Friday to you! We hope that you have special plans this weekend that include all the things that are near and dear to your heart. From church services and family lunches to jellybeans and Easter projects, we hope that you have a wonderful weekend with family and friends. This week, we have a tableful of incredible cards, letters and projects!

Let’s get started!

Sherry has been making lots of Easter cards, and sent us this gorgeous card along with the place card from her Easter table!

Mary Beth sent the loveliest sugar egg full of bunnies. We love the pulley card that you created, and the honeycombs are a wonderful touch!

This 3D basket is so delightful, Tammy! From the gold basket to the gorgeous flowers, we love everything about this beautiful card!

Richard sent this stunning box adorned with pearls and opulent easel card! We hope that you have a fantastic Easter weekend.

Here’s a more detailed photo of Richard’s card.

Myra made 4 beautiful cards, and used the mechanism in our Pop Up Bouquet cards to make other embellishments swipe and move!

She even used it with the All Boxed In Dies. Now this is the perfect gift!

We are looking forward to you joining us for Crop at Home 2 also! We’re going to have a wonderful time.

You can use the Pop Up Bouquet Dies to make snowflakes move. Thanks for the inspiration Myra!

Thank you all for the absolutely wonderful projects that you sent into the office this week. You have made this week extra special! If you would like to submit something to us for Fan Mail Friday, you can mail it to 99 Armour Drive NE, Atlanta GA 30324. We can’t wait to see what next week holds!

Love,

Anna

  • I just love the pop up snowflakes card! It’s my favorite and I want to make one now!

  • I just got time to view the Fan Mail and oh wow, no words for all the talent. I am so inspired again, but after watching this, I need a nap. Then I will try to make something too.

  • What beautiful cards and creations. I always look forward to fanmail Friday. A positive and inspirational way to start the weekend.

  • Lovely cards, but not a one with a cross or depiction of the real reason for Easter.

  • Hi Anna, I have to say WOW after viewing all of these beautiful cards. They all look so professional. I love the 3D component. I am going to try some of these projects.
    I love Fan Mail Friday. It shows how we all appreciate you so much and i love to see all these beautiful creations.

    Norma

  • Wow! The 3-D projects were amazing, as were all of your wonderful cards and gifts. Love and love.

  • So many incredible cards and projects!! Happy Easter and wishing all of you blessings!!

  • I am positively disappointed that my HSN order from craft day, March 29th, of the Cartouche cut and emboss folders was just cancelled 😭.

  • I loved Tammys basket , so interesting and interactive ! Love the concept of opening to a basket …. so many uses for stuffing it full of goodies !
    All the magic of Easter Bunny in a beautiful card , very nice !

  • Love the cards so pretty!. Fan Mail Friday is always great, have a Happy and Blessed Easter🕍😊

  • So much creativity and gorgeous Ness! Thank you for sharing. Wishing everyone a blessed and happy Easter.

  • This week’s Fan Mail Friday is so packed with love and imagination that it bogles my mind!
    I could feel this huge grin on my face as I watched. I feel like they were cards sent not just to Anna but to all of us. Thank you!

  • Such beautiful cards ladies.
    Thanks Anna for all you and your team do to help us create such elegant cards!

  • Such Beautiful cards. So wonderfull to see such great projects. I hope to learn much more from Anna and everyone else. ThankyouAnna Have A HAPPY EASTER

  • So many beautiful creations and inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to show all of these beautiful ideas and sharing your time with us. Thanks to everyone for sharing their ideas and creations with all of us.

  • Thank you for the photos of these beautiful creations; I love to see them close-up. Each one is so inspiring!

  • The pop-ups and dimensional cards are Amazing!!! Thank you for sharing all these beauty’s with us. These cards gave me so much inspiration. I see how others use multi-products in one card.

    Happy Easter to you all.

  • How can I find the pale pink metallic card stock used on Lisa Uribe’s card (5:02 on 4/15/22 FMF)? I’ve scoured Anna and HSN’s websites and I can’t find it.
    Help, please.
    Happy Easter to all!

  • I have an idea for a new product. A small dust pan & brush in the gold & cream colors to easily clean up our work space of those pesky die pieces & foam square pieces. I recently added a plastic one in my craft room but it’s just not pretty with all of Anna’s beautiful floral pieces.

  • Oh goodness! I’m so inspired by these cards. I need to finish my yard work but after seeing all these beautiful cards and creations I’m going to take some, (no one will ever know) short cuts and do some creating of my own! I just love it here Anna!
    Thank you,
    Kathy Cowens

  • The cards are absolutely beautiful. Everyone has amazing talents when it come to card making. The beautiful dies,card stock, and embellishments help and with the classes you are teaching just gives us more inspiration. I just saw my First Live class and I especially enjoying Finishing School.

  • What an awesome array of amazement. Thanks to you Anna, you have inspired us beyond the moon.

  • ALL are so beautiful! I am in awe of the pop out cards.
