We want to wish a big congratulations to Ginger Marx, our 8th Annual Anna Griffin | Create winner. We are so excited that you will be joining us this year, and we’re amazed at the generosity of crafters like Karin who gift from the heart. There’s nothing like our community of crafters!

This week we have 2 things from the warehouse to give away, the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders and the Explosion Card Making Kit. Comment anywhere you see Win It Wednesday on all of our social media channels for your chance to win one of these amazing prizes. We will have 20 lucky winners this week! Please note: all giveaways are US only. 

 

We are so inspired by the kindness of our community. This week, we have an anonymous crafter wants to give away a Create 8 event ticket. She said, “I am soon to be 74 years old. I live in a MIL type house on a hobby farm in Eastern Washington state, about 3 miles from the Idaho panhandle. I am a veteran, having served 12 years as an officer in the US Navy; I then worked 8 years for the VA and retired 5 years ago. I never married, but I have a lot of nieces, nephews and greats.  I found out last December I have rheumatoid disease, which had been causing great pain and stiffness in my hands, and the only thing I could do that helped the stiffness and took my mind off the pain was making cards! I made between one and two hundred per year, which I give to people who need them. I wish to remain anonymous, because it’s not about me. It’s about the winner and God.”

Would you like to be a part of our Create event? Now is the time to let us know in the comments. Tell us what you are looking forward to most at our Create 8 event, and why you want to join. We will be reading all of your comments and choosing a winner for this donor’s sweet gift.

Come a part of our crafting community by signing up for our email list; you can do so to the right of this post to stay up to date about our events, products, sales and so much more! We have lots of exciting things happening this year and you don’t want to miss a thing! Join us here next Wednesday to find out all of the winners and a brand new giveaway! Good luck, everyone!

Love,

Anna

  • Hi Anna! I would absolutely love to win the create box! I love your beautiful creations but I don’t have anything AG yet 😕 I am new to your beautiful world of crafting but I love crafting so much!

  • “I have too much Anna Griffin dies and paper,” SAID NO ONE EVER! What a special treat to win a Create ticket. Yes, yes, yes, pretty please!

  • The first virtual Create opened up a whol! e new world to me! To Anna and her team, I am forever grateful for teaching me fabulous designs through Finishing School, Creates, tutorials and now AGTV! AG products makes it possible to create the kind of cards and scrapbook pages I use to only dream about. To have someone tell me they carry my card in their Bible is the highest compliment I have received. These cards are made with love to comfort and lift the spirits of others. I have helped Scouts make Christmas cards for veterans at the VA hospital and Veterans Home. I make cards for our local Honor Flights after hearing that some veterans do not receive a card on the return flight. This broke my heart,so I send extras so no one is left out! Anna’s Griffinites are truly remarkable people. We have developed great friendships. Even if we never meet they are always there. They are willing to answer questions, send prayers and support and even laugh or cry together. Create gives me the opportunity to see and talk to these friends and make new ones. I think the interactions between EVERYONE would be what I miss the most, along with learning new techniques and creations that touch the hearts of others. From Penny’s poems to the awesome “finale song”,last year’s Create was amazing!!! This year due to medical expenses and my husband’s cancer surgeries I cannot afford the ticket. I would be forever thankful to be selected! Anna your generosity gifting 8 boxes is extremely gracious. CONGRATULATIONS to everyone that will be participating in Create 8! May you all be Blessed!

  • Would Love to be able to attend Create 8!! Never have had the chance to attend one and it has been out of our budget. After watching Anna on HSN showing some of the create projects as well as on the sneak previews it sure has me wishing to attend. Congrats to all winners and a special Thank You for the ladies that has given others the opportunity to participate in Create 8. 😊 By the way I do not have any of the Explosion cards or the Embossing Dies Paper Trick folders….(especially love the gorgeous Explosion cards).

  • Would love to win create! The learning of new ways to do things and excitement of being in the groups! Marvelous!!

  • I’m looking forward to the Kirigami cards and the screen cards at Create 8. I’d want to join so that I can have some fun and enjoy the classes together with the AG community.

  • The Paper Tricks cut and emboss folders interest me, it would be fun to try making those rosettes.

  • I would love to win the Create 8! That would be just fabulous. I love everything and would be grateful for any prize. #WinItWednesday

  • Dear Anna, both the Paper Tricks cut and emboss folder and the Explosion card kit sound like FUN to work with. I would be delighted to win either one. I’m saving up my money for Create 9th. Who knows I may have enough money to attend next year! I have never been to one.

  • I’m sending a big THANK YOU to our anonymous crafter for this generous ticket to Create 8. But also for your service! I know the sacrifices made by the men, women and their families in the military to keep our freedoms! The first virtual Create opened up a whole new world

  • Great prizes for #WinItWednesday as s as ways. My favorite is the paper tricks cut & emboss rosettes I think that size is perfect for cards. Good luck y’all

  • Great prizes for #WinItWednesday as always. I missed out on the rosette paper tricks cut & emboss folders so I would love to win that. Thanks for the chance to win such great prizes.

  • Such a wonderful and touching story from this generous donor. Sending prayers and warm thoughts her way. Would love to be part of the Create 8 event. Anna’s products and projects are just amazing!

  • Still hoping to win the box. I do appreciate the Griffinites who are being so generous! God bless them.

  • I want to win the paper tricks cut and emboss folders, please! They look like they are so much fun and I can think of so many things to do with them! Congratulations to all the past present and future winners, isn’t this so much fun!

  • It never ceases to amaze and delight me when people are so generous ❤️ Congratulations to all the Winitwedesday winner past and present 💝
    I love the explosion card kit and would love to make some for my family 🎃

  • Wow! I just love “Win It Wednesday! Both items that are being offered this week are great for group activities. Whether you are teaching a friend or loved one how to make a card “explode”or teaching them paper tricks, you will have hours of fun. I am looking forward to Create 8 because of all of the new products that are created for the event. Being able to learn how to produce Anna Griffin inspired masterpieces first hand is an experience that can not be duplicated. As a family, we have made it a tradition to have craft classes at our family gatherings. It would be fun to teach what I learned at Create 8 to my family and friends. Also, my brother is pastor of a church that is close to where I live, it would be a great experience to hold a paper crafting class at his church.

  • When the Create event went virtual I was thrilled. I knew I’d never be able to attend the event in person and this was a fantastic opportunity. I did the first one and the second one and the first Scrap at Home event. I honestly thought that I’d always be able to do the event if it was virtual. I’m not much of a “joiner” so these virtual events are a perfect way for me to connect with like minded people who understand the joy of creating. But who could have guessed what was in store for our economy? It seems I took my retirement and things went to… well you know. So this year I just can’t comfortably sign up for Create 8. I was fine until I saw everyone getting their boxes and saying that it was the best one yet. So I would love to be gifted this wonderful event. I so wish I were in the position to do the gifting. But thank you to all of you who have given from your heart.

  • I would like the Explosion Card Making kit, I enjoy making explosion cards and this looks like a lot of fun. Thank you for the chance.

  • Hi Anna – I was your fan years ago and am just getting back to your products again.
    Not enough hours in the day.
    I’m hoping I might win if I could choose: the Paper Trick Cut and Emboss Folders.
    Already have some ideas.
    Thanks so much.

  • Hi Anna and your special anonymous donor,
    (#Win It Wednesday) Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of the products and accessories in your kits. I just completed making my first tunnel card (following the detailed instructions of Finishing School). How happy I was when it turned out to be one of the most beautiful cards I have ever made. It was so important for me to have those complete directions! And the family I gave it to were absolutely thrilled and wondered how I was able to create such a masterpiece (their words). It made me so happy that they were so happy with my gift.
    In a few months my beloved son and daughter-in-law are celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary. My husband and I decided we would like to make a scrapbook of their precious memories and our memories of this most wonderful family. We have gathered their baby pictures, teenage pictures, pictures of parents, grandparents and even great grandparents and sweet photos of their children who are not babies any longer. I have one dilemma, though. I don’t have a clue as how to begin to put together a beautiful scrapbook or make the gorgeous pages that I have seen you make.
    I’ve heard that the Create 8 class has everything a person like myself would need to go about creating a masterpiece like the ones you have made. Of course having you, Anna, as a teacher is the frosting on the cake! And I would love to be taught further by you.
    I am not a veteran. However, for over 50 years I have volunteered my time and energy to helping others (more than 20 of those years has been full time.) Recently, I have become incapacitated, but I don’t want to make this request based on that. I have a wonderful hope and a joy in my life that cannot be taken away or shaken. Giving through crafting is one special way I can enhance my joy and pass it on to others.. I’m so happy with the talents you have taught me through your videos and schools. I would be honored to be considered for that most beautiful gift of Create 8.

  • I would appreciate having the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders which would be a great addition to making my cards and doing my scrapbook pages. I have my ticket for Create 8 but would like to nominate my friend Pam Scott. I know she would thoroughly enjoy attending this class. It would definitely be an occasion she would never forget. You first of all learn so much to use to make crafting easier and enjoyable, and meet friends to touch your life for a lifetime. Thank you, Anna for being the bridge that connects so many lives together. May God continue to bless you for your kindness and generosity. Keep bringing us more and more products to make our crafting projects shine.

  • I would love to win the create 8 ticket. I would love to attend but I had to retire so I don’t have the money to go. I would love to win the card tricks cut & emboss folder.

    Jenny

  • I would love to win the create 8 ticket. I would love to attend but I had to retire so I don’t have the money to go. I would love to win the card tricks cut & emboss folder.

  • I would love to win!! Win it Wednesday is so much fun. Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders are my pick. I would put Rosettes on every card. Oh So Pretty!!!! Thank you Ann for being so generous. Thank you to you and your team.

  • Dear Officer, and Ms. Anna,

    I was greatly moved by your introduction and your generous heart. I first want to THANK you for serving our country as a Navy officer, but also serving our veterans and their families at the VA.
    As a combat Marine, veteran’s wife and sister of a purple heart veteran, I have a small glimpse into the sacrifices many of our service members and their families make. So, as we near Veteran’s Day, please accept my sincere Thank You.
    After hearing Ms. Anna introduce you and your gift of Create 8, I am both humbled and inspired. These inspiring stories and the connection with community through cards and crafting is what makes Create so special to me. Create encourages me to rise above circumstances, and continue to uplift others through my crafting. When we do that, life becomes more – “Beautiful in the making”.
    If I received your gift of Create 8, I promise with God’s help, to continue uplifting others through my crafting.
    Thank you both for the love and kindness you show to others through your gifted hands.
    Sincerely,
    JJS

  • I’d love to win the Explosion Kit, such a unique kind of card and the colors and foiling are just exquisite! I’m picturing so many possibilities for this one.

  • Dear Anna, what a beautiful person who served our country with pride and dignity, in pain and still gives back is a amazing! I could never top that with a sad story! I would love to be a part of create 8 just because I love crafting with you and your products! Thank you have a wonderful day! Be well. Susan Paul

  • Here’s our host Lovely Anna and her sweet generosity to fello crafters. I think the rosette cut and emboss folders are so cute and would love to win those . What a special woman who wants to help a crafter have her dreams come true by going to Create 8 . It would be a dream. have a great week end Anna.

  • I missed both of these. Both so great, I’m a big cut and emboss fan, but also Kiev anything “explosion”.

  • Another great Win it Wednesday and another kind person giving away a Create box. Good luck to everyone and thank you for your service to the lady who donated the box!

  • I want to thank the anonymous donor for her service and her gift. My father was KIA Vietnam. I never had the opportunity to know him as he was killed prior to my 2nd birthday. Your service is greatly appreciated. I am preparing for Wreaths Across America 2022 as a location coordinator to thank all who have served and ensure they will not be forgotten.

    I love crafting, making cards, decorating, scrapbooking, etc. I have longed to go to Create since it started. One of these days, I will get to participate. It’s just hasn’t been in the cards. Until then, it will be dreams of crafted sugarplums dancing in my head.

  • Would love either. But I think the explosion kit would be my 1st pick. I send A couple hundred cards a year and that would be a fun one to make

  • How great is the Explosion Card Making kit!
    So fun an 3D making it even more exciting.
    Would love to win this kit to make with my 91 year old Mom.
    Thanks

  • ❤️❤️❤️ I would love to be apart of Create 8, but I can’t afford it at this time. I love learning new techniques and crafting in general. I love seeing and hearing what other crafters are doing and seeing how the many different ideas they have. I am mainly a scrapbooker, but also love any paper crafting. As I’ve said before I am my happiest when I am scrapbooking and using paper in other projects. It’s been a hard 2 years with Covid. Papercrafting has been my savior. Reading Anna’s blog has kept me going. I would love the attend Create 8 with all my heart and soul. Please any consideration in winning this ticket is greatly appreciated. Good luck to everyone and have fun at Create 8. Anna, know you and your team are appreciated for all you do. Have a great Create 8!!! ❤️❤️❤️

  • Anna,

    I’m so happy there’s another chance to be drawn for the Create 8 Event. This would be the only way I could join in and craft with you. The previews you have given showing the items are exciting and the papers, dies, etc. are beautiful. Thank you, Griffinites, for your generosity and thank you, Anna, for yours as well.

  • Paper Tricks, Paper Tricks, Paper Tricks, Paper Tricks…. pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee & Thank you!
    Not sure if you got my last msg. Trying again don’t see it in the feed.oh well I tried.

  • Paper Tricks cut and emboss folders Pleasessssssssssssssssss & Thank you!
    It would be so great to get this set just in time for the Create 8 Event. I’ve been wanting it for about 3 years now. I plan to use it for scrapbooking, pocket swaps, card making and who knows where creativity will take me.

  • Hi Anna, would be so grateful to win your Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders! All of your Cut and Emboss Folders are amazing!

  • Hi Anna! I would love to win the Paper Tricks Cut & Emboss folders! Thank you for the opportunity to win a free prize!

  • Hello Anna! Your followers are truly amazing. I would like to thank this week’s anonymous donor of Create 8 for their services, both in the Navy and at the VA. I am sending thoughts and prayers – may your health issues be minimal. You are to be commended for both your service and your generosity.

    Good luck everyone!

  • would love, love, love to win any of the giveaways especially the Create 8 which i will invite my niece Emily to join me, she is new at crafting and would absolutely love it. thank you

  • That is so nice of all these generous people to donate Create 8 to some lucky winners. I would absolutely love to be one of those recipients. A weekend of products and creative instruction is just what I need to boost my creativeness into getting back into crafting.

  • Oh my Goodness! I’m just reading about this donation from the kind veteran! What an incredible person and generous spirit! Sometimes the world sends me great news and perspective when I need it most! Just reading of their kindness lifted my heart and others, I am sure! It inspires me to get busy crafting and send more joy into the world. I am “attending” Create 8 and can’t wait to hear the follow-up to this story! I hope we can anonymously share cards through Anna Griffin Company to this kind soul. Thanks to all who share this story.

  • The Pop-Up card making kit looks like it would be fun. I can see my recipients smile when they see this card. The Paper Tricks would save my hands from doing so much scoring. One just never has enough rosettes. My finances have never allowed me to attend a Create Event. I hope with generous individuals like Anonymous. I might win one. Anonymous, you are very giving to donate this Create 8 box of pure heaven to someone. I hope I am that someone as I have had one hick of a year. My kitchen was destroyed by a fire, my car was hit by a deer as I was slowing at a stop sign (wind shield was shattered, flat tire, front hood crushed), due to losing power from a fallen tree, we had to stay in a hotel for 5 days, we missed our son’s wedding in Spain as my husband had a heart attack 2 weeks before the event and our doctor would not release him to fly the 10 hours it would take to get there, my favorite aunt passed away in August, I was hospitalized for 10 days then sent to rehab for 5 days in September and now my husband tells me he will be losing his job as his plant is closing before the New Year. So, Anna, please gift me this Create 8 kit as an early Christmas and let me be happy about one good thing that has happened to me in 2022.

  • I would love to win either one as it is all brand new to me. Although I have been blessed 🥹 with the beautiful matte foil papers for slimline cards.. I need to learn that too. Thank you for your awesome generosity! I would like to win the Create 8 ticket, and learn along with everyone else. Plus since I am a beginner, I would like to half the kit with my dear friend Linda Boyd.. for introducing me to my new favorite learning experience. Thank you for your generous donor and so encouraging and uplifting to hear that making your cards has helped keep her happy by blessings so many people with her cards designed by you Anna. So very thankful and blessed just to be a part of an excellent group of people. Thank you 😊

  • Would love to win either of the two gifts this week. Excited to find out which veteran will win the Create 8 opportunity! I would love to come to Create 8, but hoping a veteran will win. Thank you, Veterans!

  • I would love the paper tricks folders if possible. I already have the explosion card kit. Thank you Anna for making such cool & beautiful things for all of us to craft with!

  • I would love to win a create 8 ticket. I would like to be more creative. Thank you to Anna Griffin and the generous Karin for her donation.

  • I would definitely love to have either the Paper Cut and Emboss Tricks folders or the Explosion cardmaking kit. They both are amazing gifts to have and add to make beautiful cards or scrapbook pages. Anna, you never cease to amaze me with your creativity and new innovations all the time. I just love, love, love all your products. My small workspace just screams ANNA everywhere. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. I just can’t wait to see what new you will come up with time and time again.

  • Dear Anna,
    It’s so touching to see those kind crafters who want to giveaway away a Create 8 ticket week after week. My Sister in Law suffers from RA and MS and has been suffering for years. My heart and prayers go out to you, anonymous crafter, and hope one day soon there will be a cure or relief for this awful disease. Vet would definitely deserve to win this ticket to thank them for their service. If there isn’t a Vet out there that has seeked this awesome ticket, then I would love this last chance to win the ticket for Create 8. Good luck everyone

  • Paper tricks are the bomb! I have them. The explosion format is fun. All your papers & embellishments are so beautiful. Thank you to the donor of Create 8. I know someone will love it!

  • I would be honored to receive either of the Win It Wednesdays giveaways. I just love, love AG products

  • Oh Dear Anna,
    I am trying to make rosettes but they keep tearing on me. I think I figured them out hopefully However, I WANT TO MAKE EXPLOSION BOXES AND CARDS !! So that’s what I would love to win. Meantime, I will get out my rosette dies and keep trying.
    Thanks for all you do !!!

  • A huge Congratulations to all the winners! What a Wonderful Blessing!
    Anna, you are amazing!

  • Second post I was putting myself in the running for the CREAT 8 BOXES and forgot to mention I would love to WIN IT WEDNESDAY the PAPER TRICKS AND EMBOSSING FOLDERS would be awesome to WIN. I got the SNOW GLOBE KIT and there’s some ANGELS in there and I saw someone make ornaments with the ROSETTE.

  • I want to win the Create 8 – pick me, please! That would be awesome! Thank you to the generous donor and thank you for your service. I was not in the armed services, but I am proud to say I worked in Civil Service for the US Gov’t for 30 years. Greatest job in the world.

  • Would love to win either of these kits. I bought the paper tricks kit and now when I go to use it, I can’t find it. Don’t have the card explosion kit. Looks like fun. Thanks Anna for cleaning your warehouse. When you get done maybe you can come over to clean out my craft room, storage area and Christmas storage area : formally known as my bonus room. Just kidding 🙋🏻‍♀️❤️

  • Sweet gift indeed! Would love, love, love to attend Create 8! Thank you for the generous & anonymous donation of a ticket to the event of the year! God Bless you Donor!

    — Robin in Washington

  • I would love to win any of the items mentioned! The Create 8 is a DREAM, the paper tricks look like so much fun, and the explosion card would be such a nice gift for anyone to receive!

    I am afraid I have fallen hard for all things Anna since I “found” you two months ago. 🙂

    Thank you and so GLAD to be here!

  • I would love to win the Explosion Card Kit. My elderly card recipients love to show my cards to friends while saying, “Look what it does!”

  • I love the cards sets that Anna has. I would love to win the Explosion Card Making Kit.
    Thank you so much Anna for all the amazing crafts you have given us.

  • Congratulations to all of last week’s winners.
    I would love to win the paper tricks embossing folder as I have wanted to add that to my crafting supplies for a very long time. I think it would be amazing to add many of those custom embellishments to my cards and scrapbook pages.
    My heart goes out to the anonymous donor who is passing on the gift of creativity and fun to a lucky winner. Thank you for your service and I pray that you find some relief from your RA pain.
    Thank you Anna for having such generous giveaways and hosting a forum where creative friendships are made.

  • I would love to win the paper tricks cut and emboss folders! I’ve been wanting them since they came out! An amazing way to dress up my crafts! 💖Sally

  • Oh my goodness, I would love to win the paper tricks embossing folders! I have wanted these forever! Pick me, pick me! Lol this would be sooo awesome!
    I would also like to win the Create ticket! Thank you to the generous lady for having such a giving heart, I pray God blesses her with relief from her RA, my husband has it also and it is so painful.

  • Would love to win Create 8 but it is so generous of the Vet to donate. I am not a vet but my husband is and we spent almost two years in Panama were I learned so many crafts at the PX. I think it would be great a Vet won this in honor of all they did for our country.

  • I have missed the paper tricks cut and emboss folders twice, there are always so many beautiful things to choose from that it is hard to decide. So long story short, yes I would live to win the paper tricks cut and emboss folders.

  • Congratulations to the winners.
    The Create 8 pay it forward has touched my heart. And this last secret sister has touched me. My husband has been dealing with excruciating pain for over half a year. It all started before Create 7 when he sprained his ankle. As his pain grew worse he saw a cancer doctor ( no cancer) and a Rheumatologist. FINALLY he was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. It has taken several months but his doctor has found a treatment that has worked. It’s been a long road. But he is recovering and gaining his strength back. So Secret Sister I know your pain and I will pray for you. God bless you for your generosity. Anna’s team has my permission to give you my info if you are interested in this fairly new treatment that is working fot him.

    I have been playing with sone of the Create 8 dies and I just know this will be the BEST CREATE YET!!!!

    Happy Crafting!!

  • Congrats to last weeks winners! Any win from Anna makes a good day even better. I would love to win the paper tricks, not for me , I fortunately have it, but for my new niece in law. She is just starting out on her new adventure of make it anna’s way! My sister and I give her things we have to get her more excited about card making. She criticizes herself to much but she is getting better( my sister loves CC I like CC but I love ❤️ Anna) guess who my niece loves ? 😂

  • I’ve left a post a few times about how much winning Create would mean to me, however, I would also like someone who was a vet to win this box of pure fun with Anna. Thank you Anonomous.

  • It nearly brought me to tears when I read your crafter’s story bout getting rheumatoid disease. It is much like my only, only I was 43 when Rheumatoid Arthritis came into my life. I am 62 now, so I have been dealing with the pain of that disease for nearly 20 years. Since then I was diagnosed with 6 additional autoimmune diseases including Multiple Sclerosis which is also very painful. Right now, because my husband just retired, I am having to switch over to Medicare and not having two of my medications due to cost, However, but both my Rheumatologist and my Neurologist say that because I do my best to stay busy with my card making, helps me both mentally and physically. As the anonymous donor said, When you’re thinking about card composition, getting ideas for new designs, etc., and just staying mentally and physically busy, it helps us to be able to tolerate these crippling diseases. I am sending virtual hugs to her!

    PS: I have made more than 500 cards this year. I never sell my cards — my Sister’s-in- law and my close friends are the recipients of large goody bags each year. If I sold them, it would take the joy I receive out of sending them or giving them.

  • The explosion kit looks like so much fun! Thank You for all your creative talent!

  • The Explosion Card Kit would be wonderful to win! Anna I love all of your products and my craft room shows it.

  • I finally got to participate in Create 7 last year and it was totally awesome! That was my first time. It appears this year the finances aren’t looking good, but I have gotten the tag die set because that looked like so much fun for Christmas gifts this year. Anna your stuff is totally awesome and I live to make cards with your products. Will be watching as new stuff arrives and I hope everyone has a great time with your stuff.

  • I would love to win the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders! They look like so much fun to use!
    Thank you for the opportunity.

  • Would love the paper tricks. They look awesome. Anna, we appreciate your creativity and generosity. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️

  • Oh I love the paper tricks rosettes! I used to make them the old fashioned way with a score board and bone folder and punch out the circles for the tops and bottoms but this is way prettier and a lot easier! I don’t have any of the paper tricks but I wish I did! Thank you Anna for this giveaway!

  • Since I am fairly new to Anna Griffin, I had not seen either item and would love to win them. I purchased my Create tickets early, then joined AG Finishing School. I care for my 96 year old father and make cards when I can. My dear friend Marie Fix… has been giving me AG cards for years, so I am just beginning to grow my AG product collection. Thank you for all your inspiration.

  • Thank you so much for your generosity! Anna, you are so giving, and the anonymous veteran is so wonderful to want to share with others. I would be so honored to win any of these items. Thanks again!

  • Would love to win the Create 8 Box since I have not been able to Attend any of those events. What a special gift from a Veteran. My Church makes Cancer Quilts for Veterans who are dealing with Cancer. Each Sunday we tie strings of knots and say a prayer for each first name of the recipient. The lap quilts are made with patriotic fabrics. It’s such a wonderful ministry for the Veterans in the Louisville Veterans Hospital in KY. I do have the paper tricks cut & emboss folders, but would love to win the Explosion Card Kit.

  • WIN IT WEDNESDAY!!! ANNA you have my imagination going wild with your announcement about a change coming to WIN IT WEDNESDAY!!!
    I would love to be a part of the CREAT 8 live, I’ve been loving the NEW AG LIVE events and I love crafting and Anna always has a few new tricks to use in making something beautiful.
    Thank you Miss Anonymous for your generosity to give a CREAT 8 BOX . Thank you for your service, thank you for giving back at the VA. Thank you

  • In a time where we question what has happened to society, a kind soul emerges granting us hope for the future. Such kindness reminds and inspires us to be there for one another. Even the smallest act is so rewarding and lifts spirits. How wonderful it would be to win the Create 8, but I’m going to put forth a daily effort to be that happy spark to make someone else’s day. Thank you for serving our country and your kind heart. What you have done is more than a gift.

  • Hello Anna!
    I would love to be selected for “Win It Wednesday”.
    I recently shared my love of card making with your products to my friend, Dee. I gave her your Flower Pot Pop Up Card Making Kit and she was thrilled.
    You have a new fan. She is hooked!

    Yours in card making,
    Kathi Lear

  • The paper tricks cut and emboss folders look like fun it could be used in so many ways. The explosion card kit is a fun way to surprise your recipient. Thank you for win it Wednesdays

  • Good morning Anna & Team,

    YAY.. ANOTHER day the Lord has blessed me to wake up AND also to have another chance to win on WIN-IT-WEDNESDAY…

    THANKS for all that YOU do to make crafting easier & FUN.

  • Just when I think you cold not come up with anything more amazing than before, You do!
    I get so excited about all of the things I discover here. Thank you!!!

  • Winning a create 8 box would be a wonderful me time. I have enjoyed every create event since it went to our homes via internet. The most wonderful time in years and every single thing about it has a highlight. When you receive the boxes it’s like being a kid at Christmas morning, classes being in school again, craft rooms socializing with people who have the same interest it’s amazing . Then voilà the most beautiful works of art and you are so knowledgeable.

  • Wow!!! Another great give away, I would be honored to win any one of these. Thank You to the unknown crafter and may God bless her.

  • Sending out a special prayer to the amazing veteran who graciously donated such a wonderful prize. May the lord bless you and keep you.

  • Would love to win any of your beautiful dies. The dies are the answer for beautiful cards and of course the Anna Griffin paper and embellishments. I also would love to win create 8. I just want to be a part of this amazing group.

  • I love looking at all the beautiful cards which have been displayed. These provide ideas for me in making cards. I live in retirement community so I spend my days making birthday, Christmas and other cards for our residents. Many compliments are given me about my cards. The cards always have Scriptures as an extension of ministry. Thank you for all the wonderful ideas.

  • What a touching story from that veteran.
    Love this giveaway. Talk about endless possibilities.

  • I would love to add either of these fun items to my craft room as well as attend the Create 8 event! I send many blessings of better health and much happiness to the generous donor this week. Your generous nature continues after your many years of service. Thank you for being YOU!

  • I have to say……… That it should be myself and others to give to our veteran, to say thank you for your service to our country, and yes suffering pain is something I myself know. But you touched my heart, wanting to give to someone. We all wish to go to Create 8, but it is people like you that make it possible for someone who truly deserve to go because of your generous and kindness. Thank you for being you!!!

  • Hello Anna and team. I would love to have the Explosion card kit. Although both items would be great to have. You give us ways to create something special.

  • I would love to be at create 8. I love Anna and all her followers. It would be so great to meet some of them at Create 8. I would also like to win one of the#winitwednesday prices

  • Hello Anna and staff, I’m loving the Explosion card making kit. Both items would be great to have.
    Everything you make turns into something beautiful with your guidance.

  • To your Navy vet gifter of Create may I send my heartfelt thanks for her giving spirit and extraordinary generosity. She is a true patriot, the best example of a”giver” there could ever be❣️A barrel full to overflowing hugs, Granny Gabel in Dallas

  • As my beautiful floral garden outside are beginning to fade as fall is here and winter is approaching. I’m ready to start transistioning my passion for flowers indoors and up to my craftroom. I garden outside all spring and summer. In the fall and winter I create gardens with Anna Griffin flowers and cards in my craftroom. Exploding floral cards would be a floral explosion in my winter garden.

  • Win it Wednesdays are the bomb! Thanks to the veteran who donated the Create 8 and for their service!

  • Thank you to the generous veteran who is giving me a chance to go to Create 8.Also,thank you for your service. I love win it Wednesday and would love the pop up card kit.

  • Anna, I would live to be a part of the Create 8 this year. In addition to doing all the fabulous projects, I would love to meet some crafters in my area to share the joys of cardmaking. My husband is a disabled veteran and I spend a lot of time in my craft room as we don’t get out much.

  • Congratulations to all the winners and thank you Anna for you generosity.
    Thank you also to the anonymous US NAVY VETERAN who is very kind and generous to give away a ticket for the Create 8 event. Thank you for your service Ma’am and for giving an opportunity to a one crafter to join this beautiful crafting event. God bless your very beautiful heart.
    My husband is also a US Navy Veteran, he just retired last year after 24 years of service in the Navy.

    I wish to win and be the next recipient of the Create 8 event ticket. It would be so great to get to join and meet a lot of new people that loves paper crafting. Create 8 event will surely be the best event to learn a lot more about card making and stuff about paper crafting to people like me that’s very new and having no skill to this kind of art. I’m a stay at home mom since I gave birth to our 4 year old boy. I do crosstitch and diamond painting. These two are my kind of stress reliever and happy pill as well aside from taking care of my son. It makes me really happy when I get to finished a project and give it to people I care as a gift. Just recently I found cardmaking to be so much fun to do as well and would love to make more beautiful cards to give to neighbors, friends and love ones. Hope I will get to win this Create 8 ticket.

  • Wow! Explosion Cards, I love them, even made a baby card out of the design. I haven’t gotten this & would love it. They look amazing.
    I have not known of the Paper Trick Cut and Emboss Set. It looks fascinating and another fun way to create & craft.
    I am coming to CREATE & & can’t wait. Should I win this I will gift it forward. I’d love to be able to do so.

    You have me thinking about the veterans I know, the Statue of Liberty die sets are perfect…excited.

  • I love the look of those dimensional elements from the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss dies. That would be so fun to win. I think they would make a wonderful gift pin with colorful ribbons hanging off them to “award” my grandkids for being so kind and loving. Kind of like winning a blue ribbon at the state fair. Wouldn’t they be surprised to win a ribbon pin when they come to visit, and I am able to complement them for their kind and thoughtful behavior toward others!

    As for your wonderful offer from your anonymous veteran, I would like to suggest my sister, Dorothy Harp. We live half the country away from one another and I think it would be fantastic if she and I could join in as sister crafters during this on-line event. I just recently signed up for the Create 8 event via my purchase on HSN. Your items look so stunning I thought I’d like to try my hand at this craft. It’s a first time ever for me to use your Empress machine and dies. My items just recently arrived. They’re unboxed and ready for me to watch and learn all the tips and techniques. How exciting to learn to make cards and paper items to mail and gift to others. My sister and her husband (and my husband, dad and brothers) are all veterans. My sister, Dorothy, was a stamper years ago; made cards back then. I know she doesn’t have any Anna Griffin style products or tools. It would make such a wonderful surprise and pleasure to be able to see her participate in your event together with me, across many states, and enjoy our craft time together. Please consider her for your give-away.

  • To the Donor of the Create Ticket,
    Thank You for your service. Glad you get help for hands by making cards & then give away to help others! You are blessed !
    I would most definitely love to win aCreate Ticket !
    ThankYou Anna for your weekly generosity for Win It Wed!
    Crafters are the nicest people!
    🥰

  • The Explosion Card Making Kit just looks like so much fun! The Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders make magical embellishments. It would be wonderful to win either one of these!

  • As much as I would like to ask for another chance to win create 8 I do agree with Ruth Manors comment. Create is being given by a veteran therefore should go to a veteran. I find that to be very rewarding for both veterans.

  • Would love to get the paper tricks. And the explosion cards are fun to make and there is the receiving part. Yea win it wednesday.

  • Anonymous donor, thank you for your service. Appreciate you more than words can say. Your generous Create 8 gift will cause someone to be ecstatic. I really enjoy ANNA’s products and love the generosity of the Win It Weds. giveaways.

  • The Create 8 box which was donated by a Veteran should go to another Veteran, in my opinion.

  • I really would love to be a part of the create 8 event. I have the time, but, not the means to purchase tge create 8. I would rally appreciate it very much if somehow I could win the ticket to join the event. Thank you so much if you would be so kind to give me the opportunity to join.

  • I really would love to be a part of the create 8 event. I have the time, but, I just do not have the means to purchase the create 8. I would really appreciate it very much if somehow I can win the ticket join the event. Thank you so much if you would be so kind to give me tge opportunity.

  • This was so wonderful to read! I can certainly relate to how health can change how we do things.
    I have always loved everything that deals with paper . I loved cutting out Unicorns and Humming Birds for my students. I always enjoyed drawing then giving a student things I made during the lesson. After I retired I missed that. These cards are a wonderful way to give back , a kind word, and sharing a moment in time. As my granddaughter said she loves to see peoples faces when she gives them a card she’s made, and that’s how we feel. We don’t always get to see their faces, but we know how wonderful it is when we receive a card and how it makes us feel. That’s why we love the beauty of a card. It spans time and distance & says someone’s important to us.

  • I would live to see my name in that list one if these days. Or better yet, be the recipient of a create 8 box and ticket. I am not a veteran but I want to thank the person who donated the ticket for her service to our country. You are awesome and may your card making days continue for many more years. Thank you

  • My life has changed since taking up Anna Griffin card making. Everytime I create a card, my mind is easily challenged with the desire to do more card-making creations. This fills in my time in a productive way. My card creations keep my life worthwhile and interesting! Thanks Anna!

  • I would love to win the explosion card making kit. I have been trying to do that on my own and am only partially successful. It is so much fun to tune in on Wednesdays for this giveaway. Thank you so much, Sharon

  • How wonderful and generous! It gives me hope still in this crazy world! Thank you for your service and bless you. I like the paper tricks set. Can do a lot on my cards with that one! Thanks for the giveaways!

  • What an inspiring story! The rosette maker would be really awesome to use and decorate cards! The popup card is really neat as well!

    Thanks for all you do!

  • I would love to be a winner of the explosion card making kit! Also, being a winner of Create 8 would be even better! I’ve never had a ticket to Create 8.

  • Love Anna’s products and style! BTW Finishing school for Canton Bleu has pdfs for Carte Noel for both lessons 2 & 3.

  • I want to join create 8 because it looks supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!

    Yes I had to google that! And I would love to play…it’s been a rough go this week at work!

  • Thank you for your service! The anonymous crafter is extremely generous!

    I would absolutely love to win the Create Event prize! I saw the preview of the items on the last HSN Craft show and the prizes are fabulous. I’ve never attended one before as I just can’t afford it. I belong to the local Senior Center (I’m one of the younger seniors) and I would use the extras to have a Anna Griffin cardmaking class. None of them have ever experienced this before. Whoever wins will be very lucky.

  • Explosion cards look amazing!!!! I would love to surprise my friends and family with these cards

  • I would love to win the Explosion Card Making kit. I never purchased this kit, can you imagine that! Thank you

  • Both these Win it Wednesday prizes look great. I don’t have either. Thank you for being so kind.

  • Win it Wednesday!!!!
    Paper tricks and cutting folders would be great to win. All your products are so amazing. My sister got her create to eat box and I am so envious. As I mentioned I will be out of the country with no Internet available but I will definitely be purchasing the box when I come back.
    Thank you again for this great opportunity. God bless you and your family and all your workers.

  • Would love to win something from Anna. I have her Empress machine. Love it. Anna’s products are awesome. Happy crafting everyone💕

  • Hi Anna, everything you give away is lovely , I’m hoping to win the Create Event 8 so I could get to do some crafting with other people that would be so fun, so good luck to everyone else 🥰💖💕

  • Wow! I love all you dig out of your Warehouse. I Love the old die & stamps & all you find. I didn’t know how much of a creative mind you & your staff u-all have it is overwhelming. Thank you & the people who find in their hearts to give away the Create 8.

  • Ooh my I luv new things to make for the cute babies at the hospital. Their moms luv the cuteness.

  • Dear Anna,
    I would love to win the paper tricks cut and embossing folders. They would add a whole new dimension to my cards and scrapbook pages. Congratulations to this week’s winners and I love your generosity to all of us Anna fans.😍

  • Hello my name is Danielle . I’d like to first thank the generous Veteran for her service to this country. My father is a veteran also so I do truly appreciate and understand your sacrifice. I feel like Create 8 would be an awesome event to attend for a few reasons. I feel this event can be a wonderful opportunity to make friends and learn a great deal about scrapbooking and card making. Ive has some changes in my life over the last 3 years. The loss of my mother and being an empty nester (my youngest daughter is in college), so I have lots of time for reflection and thoughts . I’ve spent lots of time trying to find my purpose and my next steps in life, so attending Create 8 where I can learn the art of paper crafting and share my creations would be a wonderful outreach to people that don’t have lots of family and that have experienced loss like myself. No matter who wins the event I would like to say Thank you for sharing your good fortune and I hope every one attending has a fun filled weekend. Happy Veterans Day in advance. Air hugs :).

  • Oh Anna. I was unable to sign in for some reason. I would love to win the Create gift. I lost my dear older brother during WWII when he piloted a B17 over Germany and was shot down. My husband is a veteran of the Korean war. Winning this gift would allow me to make such beautiful cards for the veterans in the VA hospitals. Thank you. I hope to be the winner of such generosity.

  • thanks to all the wonderful people that donate to the crafting folks. such big hearts!
    As to the give away, I would love to have the paper tricks dies. They look like great
    items to have. And thank you for great products.

  • I’m not commenting in order to win, as I already have each of these items. I’m commenting to thank Anna for her ongoing generosity and joie de vivre! Good luck to all!

  • i want to say to the veteran thank you for your service.
    i would be honored to receive your generous gift of create 8.
    but i think a fellow veteran would appreciate it more
    again thank you for your service to our beautiful country

  • Bless. This very special angel who is making such a beautiful donation. It makes you realize there are truly good people in this world. Unlike the daily national news. And of course it would be a crafter. After all. One that mskes cards for others,which is what all griffinites gave I. Commo.. the knowledge that a beautiful card can make someone’s day. So glad I read Anna’s blog today. To hear about this amazing woma. Who wants to be unknown .

  • Thank that anonymous veteran for her service please. My hubby is a disabled veteran and I am his caregiver. This being said, I spend all of my time at home taking care of him. My only time to myself is when I am crafting, or sewing, or even putting a jigsaw puzzle together.
    I feel like create 8 would be the perfect distraction for me when I have some time and I would love to join.
    Thank you Anna for your generosity and for always having items for Win It Wednesday to put smiles on so many Crafter’s faces.

  • The explosion card kit would be amazing to win. But then hearing about the paper tricks cut and emboss folders sounds wonderful as well. I would love to see your warehouse it must be filled to the brim with wonderful craft supplies. Please pick me for win it Wednesday.

  • Paper tricks cut and emboss folders would be so fun to have and work with. Takes the guess work out of it. Also being the recipient of the create 8 would be amazing. It’s all about doing things together that makes it worth while. Good luck to all and all the creative minds out there making our world a better place.

  • Dearest Anonymous Crafter/Philanthropist
    So sweet of you to offer up a Creaye 8 ticket! I would love to win! I’ve been laid off due to restructuring for the last 2 months and the isolation is killing me! Though not in person at least I could connect with the community in the virtual craft room.
    Too bad I don’t live closer so we could craft together! I love that area; my sister lives in MT and my Cousins in Boise. I’ve been to Bremerton WA before to see where my mom was a WAVE in the Navy during WWII. Thank you for your service and God bless!

  • Hi Anna – I signed up for my very FIRST Create! I am so excited to get started! I would love to be able to add to my Anna Griffin stash !

  • Hi Anna and Team,

    The explosion card making kit is my choice for today. I love explosion cards! I learned how to make them on YouTube. I like the element of surprise…makes the card special.

    I will continue to pray for your CREATE 8 winner. I no longer have a computer so CREATE is not something I can do……although I can’t wait to purchase the book making dies. Absolutely beautiful.

    Well, see you on the 15th, for sure. Stay healthy and happy!

  • Hi Anna and Team,

    The explosion card making kit is my choice for today. I love explosion cards! I learned how on to make them on YouTube. I like the element of surprise…makes the card special.

  • Congrats to all the winners. Would love to win the explosion card kit. Learned to make these cards in a class at the one live Create event that I was able to attend, These are such fun cards.
    Looking forward to Create.

  • i would love to win any of the giveaways especially the paper tricks cut and emboss folders. thank you so much

  • Paper tricks is so interesting seeing what you have created with them-would love to create some tricks of my own!

  • Dear Anna,
    O goodness – I’ve never seen such a beautiful card as the one shown in the exploding card kit. It looks so simple to make but everyone will think you spend a lot of time making it and what a surprise when you open it up!

    I would dearly love to be a winner of this card kit. I am became a hugh fan of your kits when I ordered your Christmas kit this year and I have all my cards already done.
    Thank you

  • How generous of you to give someone a ticket to go to Create 8. You are very thoughtful and kind. You will make someone’s day!!!

    I would love to get a ticket but I think their are probably more people who are more advanced than me who would benefit from it. I love all her products and I sent cards to a charity and beautiful art is always healing. I like writing them a quote and some kind of to blessing. I make about 50 cards a month, sometimes a little more on holidays. I just used the haunted house for this Halloween.

    Thanks for your consideration

  • In a world where it seems we are inundated with acts of kindness only done to gain public attention, it is nice to read an example on the Anna blog about a person’s generosity and the level of true understanding of the selflessness of anonymity. Great character. We all have to think we share something in common with those who follow Anna, because when we give a card away, we give a piece of ourselves away with the intention to brighten someone’s day. I would love to add to my Anna G. collection with the fun items described.

  • How awesome to have these giveaways! I would love to have an explosion card making kit and the embossing folders!

  • CONGRATS to All the winners !! Thanks for all the awesome dies and card sets !!! Special thanks to those that donate the create kits !! Would love to win dies or card kit. KEEP up the great work to you and your staff !!

  • I have the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders and they are so fun. Depending on how many strips used and tightness of the folds, you can make many different sizes for your projects.

  • I just used up my explosion card kit just the other day. I would love to have a new kit to start all over again.

  • I would enjoy the paper tricks cut and emboss folders! I also would be ecstatic if those beautiful boxes arrived at my door.

  • These cards are absolutely beautiful! I would love to have anyone of these kits. Because I am a “beginner “ I would love to receive the Paper Tricks and embossing folders. Fingers crossed!!!

  • I would love to win a spot in Create, as I will be having surgery on Nov. 2, and that would most certainly be good medicine for me as I recuperrate . May you be blessed for your generosity . Also win it Wednesday,would love the explosion card kit. I never ordered it because it looks complicated, so I will be recuperating from surgery and need the challenge .

  • I love the Paper Tricks cut and emboss dies. They look complicated but that’s the fun! Can they still be purchased? Thanks for sharing.

  • To attend Create 8 would be a dream come true. Thanks for being so generous to give others the opportunity to win.

  • I would love to win the Paper Tricks or the explosion box kit.

    And of course the Create 8, it would be a fun thing to do with my husband, as it’s not in our budget.

  • Thank you for your kind offer of Create box. But mostly, thank you for your unselfish service to this United States. Salute!!

  • Paper Tricks sounds like fun. Love to win them!
    Congrats to all of this weeks winners.

  • Would love the Paper Tricks cut & emboss folders! I have Paper Tricks 3 (which are fun!), but the addition of embossing must be exquisite.
    I had the explosion Halloween card set a few years back and everyone loved the unique cards.
    As nearly everyone who reads Anna’s blog, I would LOVE the opportunity to attend Create 8. Thank you anonymous ~ and thank you for your service. We salute you.

  • I would love to have the paper tricks folders. I have been fortunate to have three sets of explosion cards and those who received them absolutely loved them. Having the paper tricks folders would allow me to learn something new.

  • Ohhhhhh Myyyy Goodness…I would LOVE to receive a CREATE 8 Ticket! Create is one of the most fun things on earth! It is not in my budget this year but I am longing to be there with everyone!

  • I would love to win the Paper Tricks Cut & Emboss Folders. Those little rosettes are so cute! If I had less going on right now I would ask to win the Create 8 event. I wish I could split myself into about 5 different Victorias – one to go to work every day, one to do paper crafts, one to sew, one to make jewelry, and one to do all the house and yard work! I can’t wait until I retire, and pray that I will still be able to do everything I enjoy when I do.

  • Love cut and emboss folders. I would use them to enhance my sentiment sticks. I tried for these folders before so here’s hoping the second time is the charm. #WinItWednesday

  • The explosion card kit looks like fun! I’m slowly introducing my sister-in-law into the Anna Griffin world and I think she would get a bang out of it!

  • I am so looking forward to Creae 8 and hope I can participate. I am on my third try with HSN. They canceled the first two for some reason. Anyway I would really love the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders. I haven’t done much embossing.

  • I would like to win the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders because I love the look of rosettes. These look especially fancy and beautiful.

    Of course I would really love to win the Create ticket! And the two boxes of project supplies! Just the organizing pouches alone have me getting excited. I’m sure it will be a fun, challenging and fulfilling experience for everyone who is able to participate.

  • Hello Anna, Both paper tricks and explosion cards are kits I have never used, so surprise me!
    I hope the Create 8 will be a huge success! Thank you Anna and Anonymous!

  • Love all of Anna’s cardmaking supplies I use them all the time. I also use the card Kits for all different occasions love it all

  • Great Win It Wednesday! What generous AG crafters!

    Paper Tricks look so good and could be used for any card or decoration. Would love to win and be able to use for holidays.

    WOW would love to come to create and thanks to all those for their generousity in gifting.

    Thanks and have a great fall day.

  • I keep wishing and hoping I could win a Create 8 Event ticket thanks to the kindness of someone sharing a ticket! I am a longtime paper crafter and follower of Anna Griffin. It would be a dream come true to join fellow crafters at this event. I am a senior on a fixed income. I love making cards for family and friends and also with fellow crafters at my church for fund raising.

  • I would LOVE love love to win a chance to attend Create 8. I am a Navy veteran….GO NAVY!
    Thank you
    Cathy

  • I would be very pleased to have those Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders. It would be a great blessing indeed to participate in Create 8 and to have the opportunity to meet and to create alongside the beautiful, generous ladies and gentlemen who are such an integral part of this crafting community. And to have the added benefit of creating exciting projects under the tutelage of our Anna—well, that would make the experience all the more spectacular. God bless those who choose to bless others with such a meaningful gift as the Create experience.

  • Thank you for being so generous in cleaning out your warehouse. I’d be lucky to win either the cut and emboss folders or the card kit! Happy Halloween!
    I’d also love to be a part of the Create 8 event if so chosen!

  • I would like to win the Create, certainly can’t afford it at all, making cards takes my mind off my woes-so Create would help my mind!

  • I have never been able to afford one of these I would love to come to meet new crafty friends I also love Anna’s wonderful products and her kindness I hope to win once in my life win it Wednesday thank you for your gift

  • I would love to win the paper tricks dies. I sometime have problems folding the paper in straight lines and I know this would definitely help.
    Attending the Create would be wonderful because I just found out that I have to have another knee surgery. I have fallen 3 times in the last 2 weeks and went to dr today and I am going to have another surgery to hopefully stabilize my knee so I do not fall anymore. So being laid up for a couple of weeks in December and January would be perfect to use the skills taught at Create.

  • Wow, I love those Paper Tricks cut and emboss folders. They will make absolutely adorable rosettes for my cards, especially for the Christmas cards with red, green and gold colors. Ohhh, I love them! 🙂

  • Wow it’s Win It Wednesday would love to win any of your giveaways just once. Amazing products and all of exquisite quality.❤️💃🏼❤️

  • I would love the Paper Tricks cut and emboss set. It always look so beautiful when I see them so beautifully made!

  • I have been wanting to try the explosion card kit,. However I am on a very limited budget and have not been able to fit the kit in my budget. It would be wonderful to win this jut and push my card making to new limits. I enjoy all things Anna Griffin and enjoy making cards which are so appreciated by friends and family.

  • How nice to be able to win the explosion card kit or the paper tricks cut and emboss folders. Better yet, thanks to the anonymous donor for the chance to win to Create 8. Thank you for her service to our country. My father was in the army for 5 years. He then worked as a volunteer at the Veterans Hospital with my mother. and he was President of the local veterans group doing work for the community. Thank you to all veterans. Waiting for the show. Stay well.

  • Wait, when did Paper Tricks come in cut and emboss? Where have I been? Those look amazing!

  • I would love to get a Create ticket. I have never been able to afford to go but I am seeing my fellow NC Griffinites get their boxes and they are so excited to go. Thank you for your service in the Navy to the one who has donated the ticket and for your generous donation.
    If I don’t win the ticket, I would love an explosion card kit. One of the Griffinites sent me an explosion card for my birthday which is Friday and I will be 70 years young!

  • I would love to have either of the amazing products that you shared but most of all I would be so thrilled to participate in Create 8. So I have my fingers crossed.

  • Thank you for your service
    And your generous gift
    Can’t afford Create this year like so many others
    But good luck to the happy winner

  • I would love either one of the beautiful offerings this week. I use rosettes often on my cards and the explosion cards are amazing. I love Anna’s creativity! Griffinites Forever! Thank you, Anna!

  • Always watching for new card kits. Must have missed your Explosion Card Making Kit but would love to win it. Hoping one of our Veteran crafting friends wins the Create gift!

  • Hello Anna,
    I can’t wait fir Create 8. Got my Box yesterday and already dug through it all. I am so excited. I would love to win the Explosion box. I have always wanted to make this card but I have been somewhat intimidated by this. A special Thank You to our anonymous donor for the next Create 8 giveaway. I hope a Veteran wins.

    Thank you

    Norma

  • I love anything Anna..you have the best stuff…any one that wins..is a very lucky person..Thanks for all you do….Have a Happy Day!!!!

  • What wonderful generosity, Thank you Ms. Anonymous for how you bless others in so many ways from the faithfulness God has shown you. I would enjoy create, but I am grateful and loving the supplies I have. I enjoy making cards and sending them to family, friends and those in need of encouragement through our card ministry at church.

  • #WinItWednesday……. Hi Anna and team! I would love to have the explosion card kit. My mom is always pressing me to make he cards to display that are bigger and more artistic then any her friends can buy. I think this kit would really do that.

    I am awed that a veteran would give a gift of Create 8 to a stranger. We should be gifting her. As a past Navy wife and Anbudsmen of a Navy Nuclear ship, I know how much the men and women that serve give up to protect their county. This wonderful soul who is sharing her love of crafting and all things Griffinite, has got to be rewarded with a very special place in heaven. My hats off to you! I would love to win that Anna Griffin weekend. My career of being an elementary teacher, mom, and Navy wife didn’t leave me with a wonderful retirement income, as I changed locations to follow my husband, and never did build up that retirement goal of my own. Thanks for the chance to be included in your giveaway.

    G-d bless you all, Karen

  • I would like to thank this very special lady for her service. Winning would get me on my journey in card making. I buy a lot of materials and need a lot of instructions. Thank you.

  • Hello Anna,

    I love those rosette looking designs, so I would enjoy winning the Paper Tricks cut and Emboss folders and Win the Create 8 classes also. That would be a early Birthday gift for me, since my birthday is November 15th.
    Thanks
    Rita

  • “Win It Wednesday”’s these two kits are absolutely fantastic ….. fantastic!!
    Create 8 from Washington State is awesome as that is my State! I live on the other side of the mountain!
    Bless her heart for blessing another!

  • Thank you to anonymous Veteran for her service and for the gift of Create 8. What wonderful generous community we have!!

  • I love win it Wednesday. I would like a card making kit. I want to start getting together with my friends and making cards.

  • I want to win that Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders and the Create 8 Ticket! I really would love to go to Create 8 but a lot of my money goes towards taking care of hospice birds. It would be so lovely for me to join this wonderful group in creating such exquisite things. Thank you to the generous donor both for their kindness and for their service.

  • Since buying the Kirigami dies, my family says I am on an Anna Griffin Diet….that is, I am so intrigued with the uniqueness of these dies that I can’t put them down. I had rather make cards than eat! Likewise, both of these dies would not only be fun, but each would offer endless possibilities for creating beautiful and unique cards. I love both of them!

  • Hi Anna – just want to thank the wonderful people who are paying forward with Create 8 “tickets.” Really, really wonderful. Love that the most recent gifter is from my state! A truly amazing gift!

  • Wow great prizes this week. Pick Me, Pick Me…..I love all your kits, dies and embossing folders. They let me create things of beauty…..

  • I could be rich if I would stop buying your items … instead I am rich in enjoyment and love.

  • Where was I when the explosion box came out..I have never seen this kit before . would love to win and would love to go to Create 8. Love to Anna and all the Griffinites..

  • Hi All, This is fun and exciting to have “Win it Wednesdays!” Thank you Anna for being so generous. My wife and I really love everything that you do, as we have said before, but our selection (if we have the chance to win) would be the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders. We have admired them for a while and it would be so much fun to try them out! Thanks again for the opportunity to win! You are the best.

    James and Sharon

  • Everything you have shown is lovely today.. Keeping my fingers crossed that you will pick me…
    Today I received the Carte Canton Blue.. It blew me away.. Love it to the moon and back.. So elegant. Tonight I will make a few cards. Reminds me of my grandmothers china.

  • Everything shown was nice. I really liked the folding cards. My friends would love that kind of card. Of course Create 8 would be wonderful to participate. also. Thanks for Win It Wednesday!

  • Hi! Thank you for being so generous with “Win It Wednesday”! I almost never win anything, but if I am chosen this week, I would really like to have the Paper Tricks Cut & Embossing Folders. I somehow missed them when they were for sale.
    If I do not win, is there any way I could purchase a set? I love to make rosettes for my cards. Using my Empress to cut & emboss them would make it so much easier & faster. Thank you for reading my comment. I love watching your presentations.
    Many blessings to you, your incredible staff & the veteran who anonymously donated the Create 8 ticket. Thank you for your service & your kind & generous heart.

  • I would so love to win the opportunity to attend Create. I am homebound disabled and crafting is my only outlet. It helps me focus on something outside of my pain and rapid loss of mobility. I so want to attend, but it just isn’t in my budget. My birthday is on the 14th and so wish I could gift this to myself.

  • First and foremost I want to thank this week’s anonymous donor for her 12 years service to our country and also for her generous gift to one very lucky crafter. I would be so grateful if it was me🥰

    I would love to win the explosion card kit this #WinitWednesday. I have never made this type of card and think it would be fun to try. Thanks and good luck to everyone.

  • Congratulations to all the winners and thank the Vet for her generously. I would love to win any of the give away items, Especially Create 8. Happy crafting to all.

  • I absolute love all of the designs above! YourDesign Crew and you and you deserves a awesome Great Job and a Pat on the back.

  • I watch you every week. First time to comment. I love all your products. I’m addicted.
    I watched today and saw a veteran donated a create kit. I am a USMC veteran. My time in the Marine Corp was the best time . I met my husband in Okinawa Japan. We will celebrate 40 years of marriage this December.
    I would love to be considered for the create kit. It gets very cold here in Alaska and I can always use some creative projects.
    Thank you for your consideration and for your inspiring projects and support.

    Sincerely,
    Margarita

  • I would love to win the cut and emboss folders. My biggest wish would be Create 8. An amazing gift from a special person. Thank you for your service to our country. Veterans are close to my heart because my brother was a Vietnam veteran who sadly died too early and is missed everyday. At present, I am dealing with Ménière’s Disease and enduring 6 injections in the eardrum ion the hope of decreasing the nausea and dizziness. I can sit quietly and work with scrapping supplies so winning Create 8 would be a blessing.

  • Thanks to all the Griffinites that are gifting Create 8 classes, thats wonderful! I’m so proud to be in such a loving and giving community. Anna Griffin products are more than just a card or scrape book page. They are gifts from the HEART! and gifts from the Heart are the BEST gifts. God Bless all of you!!

  • I would be thrilled to win any of the giveaways this week. So much fun creating with AG products!

  • Oh I would love to win the paper tricks cut and emboss folders! I love all your wonderful products but your folders and dies are my favorite because I get to use them over and over!

  • I love the explosion card kit because it is so unusual. Those receiving these cards have to be so impressed with the creativity involved. Thank you for your generosity!

  • LOVE the Explosion Card Kit but please gift it to a veteren or active duty crafter! If any are left over send it my way!!

  • Anna,
    I am a daughter of and a sister of and a wife of a veteran, so I am extremely excited about a veteran gifting another Create 8 box to someone. I think it is so amazing that so many have stepped forward this time to bless others with such a wonderful gift. I believe it will be an extra exciting time for all this year.
    You are the one who started it all.💕💕🌸🌸

  • I so love all of your kits!
    Some are a real challenge and your finishing school classes really help a lot.
    Everything you create is so beautiful that I want them all!
    The paper tricks cut and emboss folders are very nice but I think the exploding cards is something I really like to learn how to do!
    I would love to win that one!
    Keeping my fingers crossed!

  • Thank you to to anonymous donor for her service and for offering someone the chance to attend Create 8. I am recently, unexpectedly unemployed so I cannot afford to attend. On the bright side, I have had more time for crafting ( AG pop-up tea cup cards) while I also look for a new and better job. Thank you for the chance to attend. Good luck to all!

  • I would love to win either the Explosion Card Making Kit or the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders. Both are amazing. I would absolutely love to attend Create 8. My hubby is newly retired and I retired a few years ago to provide day care for our 1 and only grandchild (because of the high cost of child care we wanted to help). Purchasing Create 8 doesn’t fit into our household budget, but would love love love to attend. Thank you to all who all who have so generously Paid it Forward to those who are unable to attend. ❤️

  • To the generous soul giving away the Create ticket-first thank you for your service. I’m not a veteran but so many of my family are and I have a grandson in the Navy right now. I believe that you can never be too generous-it comes back to you double what you give so I know you’ll be blessed many times over. I would be the most excited to rub shoulders with the Griffinite community and “me” time away from everyday life.

  • I don’t know how to win the create box. It’s currently not within my budget to be able to attend. My husband and a 26 year veteran of the army died a year ago. It has been a huge adjustment and a hard year. I don’t have people nearby to craft with anymore. I think create would be a wonderful experience and I would be glad to have the opportunity to craft with other people again . It is so great that so many people are willing to buy boxes to give away. It restores my faith in humanity a little bit.

    • Robin, how I pray that our Lord’s grace and love abide in your life! Please know that I am thinking of you! I make cards using the Anna Griffin materials and I love them! I always look on the sale page first!

      I leave you with a prayer that you may experience Christ’s love in a meaningful way today…

  • I missed the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders before and have been wishing they would come around again. I love when Anna brings items back on HSN to give us a second chance. Maybe you could add a Second Chance segment to your HSN shows now and then? If not, love you anyway! Hahaha

  • Winning a gift from Anna would be the most exciting thing to happen to an 86 year crafter

  • What a kind, generous and humble person who is gifting a Create for another to enjoy!💞 If I should ever be so lucky to win, the Paper Tricks would be an awesome prize. Thank you❤️

  • What a lovely generous gesture to give the gift of Create 8. Thank you 😊 for sharing your life story with us. I would love to attend Create but right now it’s not feasible. Good luck to whoever wins. ENJOY! I would love to win the explosion card kit. What fun. I’ll be waiting to see the winners for next week.

  • These are such awesome prizes. The create prize would be amazing, and how generous of a gift for someone.

  • I would look forward to creating with Anna and the Anna fans, playing with all the beauty in the making and having some me time. Thanks for the chance to win as this is not in the budget this year!

  • I would Like to say Thankyou to all who donated a CREATE 8 Ticket. I hope to do that next year. The explosion Box Kit. Looks to be so much Fun. Thankyou Anna and Team For such wonderful Products.

  • Dear lovely Anna,
    Thank you so much for all you continue to do for our crafting community! Your products are always “top notch”! I would be honored and delighted to win the Paper Tricks Cut & Emboss Folders! Your generosity is beyond amazing! Also, I’d like to wish God’s blessings on the generous anonymous person who gifted the Create 8 this week, and all of the previous folks who have so kindly gifted Create 8 to others.
    Respectfully as always,
    Sharon Escue

  • Wow! To the anonymous person what a generous heart and Anna Griffin Fan for offering the opportunity to attend Create! I have always wanted to attend Create but it seems things haven’t worked out. Last year my husband got Covid Pneumonia and spent 15 days in the Hospital of 5 were spent in the ICU. The nurses called him miracle man because they have never witnessed the miracle of a person turn around from being in the ICU. By the grace of God and prayers he was able to come home. This year my husband tore his meniscus. He just had his surgery and we’re not sure when he can go back to work. I have always been a big fan of Anna Griffin since her QVC days and love her products and the art of making cards. My goal is to put together a Wedding scrapbook using her amazing products and the skills I’ve learned from her various videos! Have a wonderful week everyone!

  • So excited to start my Christmas Card making! Would love the giveaways! Good luck everyone. I know everyone would be so happy to win!

  • Thank you to our very generous veteran who will make someone’s dream come true. Thank you for your service and selfless gift to this great nation.

  • I love Paper Tricks. The unique paper folding using dies is awesome. The past way of doing these paper trims is pretty much gone. Anna is a magnificent teacher and keeps getting better.it is just not possible for me to attend Create 8 due to financial reasons. But I wish the best experience ever for those attending.

  • First of all, thank you to our Veteran Service Woman who gave of herself for our country & is now giving again for Create 8 as making cards keeps her mind off the pain. I know what she means as I have Fibromaralgia & cancer & it does keep my mind off the pain more than all the junk the dr.’s give out.
    Would love to win the Create 8 ticket as there is no way we can afford it unless my husband goes for a second job & at 83 not many would hire him. I too am 74.
    God bless you for your generosity to our country & to Create 8,
    Michele

  • I would be really excited to win the cut and emboss folders. They make great package embellishments as well as ornaments.

  • What a great prize to win! Love them both, that explosion card looks so fun to make. Thanks for the chance.

  • I would be so grateful to receive a ticket to Create 8! Thank you to the generous donor for her service to our wonderful country! Good luck to everyone and for those that will be attending Create 8 – here’s wishing you all a wonderful time! I hope to attend someday and meet some of you fabulous Griffinites!!

  • I think that the anonymous person needs some cards herself. What a generous gift. I could surely love to win it. I would also like today’s craft items. Thanks 🙏🏻 ❤️🤗

  • AN ITEM WORTH GROVELING FOR!!!!!! I have the long snowflake dies, but made many rosettes the old fashioned way with the little girl witch as the center for Halloween. I would love the paper tricks!!!

  • I would love to win this week’s products. Even better if I win the Create 8 package. Thank you to the veteran who donated this amazing prize and for their service to our country!

  • Although I am retired, I am a full-time card maker. I make well over 300 cards annually because everyone needs a smile at their mailbox. Anna’s beautiful dies and embellishments make paper crafting easy and fun. I have so many of her dies, but would love to have Paper Tricks in my collection.

  • Would love to win the Exposion card kit it would a first for me. Congratulations to all the winners. Thank You Anna and team. Win it Wednesday.

  • I LOVE…LOVE…LOVE the rosettes “Paper Tricks”. They are so lovely and everyone who receives a card from me wants to know how they are created!!! I have to do it the old-fashioned way….ha ha This would make it so much easier.

  • The Explosion Card Kit looks like so much fun! I would absolutely love to win one! Thanks for considering me!

  • I am new to card making and so far have only been making the standard type cards. I would like to move out of my comfort zone and try making more complex cards. I think the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders would be a good set to help me move to the next level. I would love to win these folders. Thank you Anna for your generosity and a special Thank You to all who have donated the Create 8 tickets.

  • Our anonymous Veteran-Crafter is so Precious to share her gift-with someone for the Create 8 Event. Please Thank Her -from all of us. I would love to win-either one of this week’s Win It Wed. gifts.

  • Hi Anna & Co.!
    I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to get so many of Anna’s kits over the years, these are two things I have never gotten. Both are fantastic!

  • I have always wanted to.make the explosion card. I would love to win that card kit. I also love your cut and emboss folders. Either would be wonderful to win.

    I have always wanted to attend a create, I know they teach you so much. However being a senior on a fixed income it has not been in the cards for me. I think it is wonderful that those who donate a ticket to those of us who cannot afford to go. Bless each and every one of them.

  • Would love to get to be a part of Create 8. It’s been a very difficult 2 years. I would love to start paper crafting again with everyone.

  • Praise God for all these generous giver.
    Love to win the cut and emboss folder. Thanks Anna for your generosity too.

  • Congratulations to all the previous winners. Anna you are so generous to have WinItWednesday. The embossing folders would be a lot of fun trying out the various folds and working them into cards.
    Thank you to the wonderful person who donated a Create 8 Box. This gift is so exciting!
    To win the Create Box would be a dream come true. Good luck to all that are hoping to win it.

    • I would love to win a Create ticket. I’ve been fortunate to go to the last four viral functions but due to health problems this year I’m not able to. I’m now well and back to crafting. I love the new line of paper and the classes look great, I really would love to win so I can be part of it.
      Thank you, Sandy

  • I would love to win the explosion card kit as I’ve done a number of them in the passed and loved it 🥰 will live in hope my name will appear one week???

  • I still have faith Anna, that I will be the lucky winner of the Create 8 experience. I too am nearing 80 and while not a veteran I am the spouse (60 years) of one. We spent 25 years going where the USAF sent us. Now I enjoy making lovely Anna Griffin cards for friends, family and friends I’ve never met. Thank you and your generous donors for the opportunity.

  • Hi Anna , would love to win the explosion kit. Think this would be fun to give to family and triends!!

  • Dear anonymous, thank you for 12 years of service and 8 more working with the veterans. It takes a big heart and soul to dedicate your life to a beautiful cause that we call freedom. Without those that sacrifice we would not be able to do the things we have all come to love so dearly. Like beautiful in the making! Create 8. I too was just diagnosed with a rare rheumatoid disease. I understand the pain. Thank you for giving someone like me the opportunity to go to create 8. Life has been rough for a lot of us these past few years. But I know we will be stronger for it! I would luv to go to create 8, so I could make homemade Christmas gifts this year. And with the create 8 box, I would have the most beautiful gifts to hand out. Thank you for your consideration. God bless you and all of our military and veterans. May they all come home safely to their families 💕🇺🇲🙏🥰

  • I would love to win the paper tricks cut and emboss folders for my sister. She’s just getting started making cards and loves it. I think she would enjoy using the paper tricks and emboss folders.
    I want the Create 8 event package. Fingers crossed.

  • The paper tricks cut and emboss would make a wonderful addition to my card making skills. I have not used rosettes on cards and would love to see what I create using them.

  • Wow! The generosity of this this community!! I am new here- I have had my Kits for 2 weeks and I have really enjoyed making cards, it’s easy yet I can really be creative with all the embellishments and the paper is sooooo pretty. I am looking forward to trying new items and I plan on watching HSN on NOVEMBER 15!

  • The kindness & generosity in the Griffinite community is awe-inspiring! God bless & thank you to all the Create 8 gift givers ❤️
    I’d like to nominate Sharon McGuire for this week’s giveaway. Like so many, Sharon has had a very tough year. Relying on her strong faith, pressing on with courage & hope, her husband’s cancer surgeries & job loss, rheumatoid arthritis & Covid. With all this on her plate, Sharon is not able to purchase a Create ticket this year. Yet, many times over, I’ve read her gracious posts in our Anna Griffin groups being happy for & congratulating others who are attending or receiving their boxes. Genuinely wishing them a wonderful time! Sharon is a giving, kind & caring friend. It would be an amazing blessing for Sharon to attend Create 8! #WinItWednesday

  • WOW what news!! Fun!!
    Explosion Fun!! Plz Plz Plz! Would so love to have this!! Have to be so carful what i purchase that win it days every week with the possibilty in receiving a gift is wonderful for me as i am sure it is for others..
    Thank you for the chance!
    Pat

  • That Explosion Card Making Kit is soooo beautiful! I’d really enjoy crafting with it.

  • I would love to win a ticket. Everything looks great but I love the fold out book. Thank you to the anonymous person for being so generous. I’m glad her illness doesn’t keep her from making cards.

  • Hi Anna, thank you for your generosity as always!
    I would love to win the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folders. I love those rosettes!

  • I would love to see my sister, Radel win a Create 8 ticket. She fought a long hard battle with an aggressive breast cancer and is still struggling to get her strength back, it’s been over two years. A few months ago, her husband became very ill with an incurable lung disease and won’t have long on this earth. It would be such a sweet highlight for my sister to participate. Much appreciation, Anna for all you and your team do.

    • Dorothy – We will keep your sister in our thoughts. I hope either you or your sister wins so that you can share this important time together.

  • Congrats to all the winners! I would love to win any of the prizes this week. All of these products are wonderful. But budget always limits how much can come home with me, so, winning would be great!

  • I would love to win the explosion-making card kit. I find that your card kids are not complicated but leave enough room to add one’s own creativity. Crossing my fingers.

  • That is an extremely generous snd very kind gift to some very lucky person. Hopefully the pain in your hands gets bit better, keep warm as you can💝

  • WOW…as much as I would love to receive a ticket to Create I really feel like a winner already!! Just knowing that there are people like the “anonymous ” donor in this world of such upset, makes me and my heart feel happy and grateful!! Congratulations to all the winners!!

  • I would love to win the explosion card kit. I have many many of Anna’s card kits but don’t have this one. Would love to win one to take to the memory center and make some with my sister there. She loves card making kits.

  • I truly enjoy being a part of the AG crafting community. Everyone is always kind, encouraging, and generous. Exactly what the world needs. 👏

  • I would love to win. I make cards for over 100 people each year for birthdays anniversary and sympathy cards plus over 100 Christmas cards I like your your products the best because of the quality. You also help me with ideas. The explosion box sounds fun. I have lost several friends this year and I think one of those cards would cheer them up

  • AG, Blessings to the Veteran to whom has given from her heart to provide joy in your Create experience. Rev. Odom.

  • I saw the create kit on hsn and loved everything about it. Unfortunately it was not a purchase I could make, it has been a very hard couple years with the loss of my mother and a granddaughter. It has been very difficult for me to get back to crafting and would have loved to have the classes that I could just create and not have to be creative and get inspiration from other crafters. Thank you for the opportunity.

  • Congratulations to all the winners!! I love all the card kits—-I had the Halloween explosion card kit and used every single one last year sending to friends and co-workers. I don’t have the explosion card kit for this Win It Wednesday though—-it’s beautiful!

  • I would like to win any of your items. I was going through my dies this morning and I have several of your dies and embossing folders. Congratulations to the winners.

  • I am not a veteran but the daughter of a WWII veteran, and I know the pride and commitment to be a veteran. So, to the gifter, Thank you for your service and thank you for the gift of Create. That is why I love Anna and her community, the generosity and kindness that is shown in everything that is done. I would love to be a part of that weekend, to be a part of the Create community.

  • What a lovely and generous person is that is gifting the Create 8. I hope she continues to make cards and enjoy her farm.
    I would love to win the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders. Over this first year of card making I think I have gained the confidence to do something a little more advance.

    Thank you Anna, for all the ways you and your company have enhanced our lives.

  • I would love to win the Create 8 being gifted. I’m on a limited budget and will have to start saving for the next one.. I use my small retirement check from the hospital I retired from for getting my Anna Griffin supplies.
    Thanks!
    Kathy Moretz

  • Hello Anna,

I would love to Win either of the prizes , the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss folder or the Explosion card Kit!!!! I Love your products!!!!!! That is very generous of the anonymous Donor of the Create 8!!!!! Would love to attend the Create 8, but not this year.
    Thank You

  • Hello! I would love to win the Create 8 box for my mom! She’s 88! I asked her if she would like to make some Christmas cards and pulled you up on a YouTube video on our very large TV to introduce who you are to her. It just so happened that it was a sneak peek at the Create 8 box. Her face absolutely lit up when she saw the little house tree ornaments! I’d love for her win!

  • Hi Anna
    All your classes are so inspiring, I am holding a card class at the Roseburg OR Cancer Center, and I would love to be able to share your explosion box with the ladies
    Have a blessed day
    Pamela Smith

  • Would love to win anything. I love all of your dies and other products. I am working on enlarging my Anna Griffin stockpile. I enjoy learning from you each day.

  • Hi Anna & team!
    Truthfully any gift from your abundance would be a blessing to me! Surprise me if you please 🤗

  • How awesome! I’d love to win either of these lovely prizes, I make bunches of cards.

  • I just ordered the paper tricks embossing folders but I would love to win it so I could pay it forward to a dear friend who is recovering from difficult shoulder surgery. I know she would love it.

  • A veteran and a very kind person giving away Create… it is just amazing what people will do to help others and I send my thanks.

    Explosion looks good.

  • I would love the explosion card kit and the paper tricks kit. Thank you Anna for giving us such beautiful things to craft with.

  • I am left to tears every time I read the comments. The generosity and kindness of Anna Griffin and her followers are beyond measure. It renews my faith in people and the world we live in. I have been unable to purchase a ticket to Create because of health issues and treatment costs. All funds have been directed to these treatments. I would love nothing more than to be able to be amongst this group and craft all weekend and make these beautiful items. The camaraderie and compassion for each other is amazing. I would consider it a blessing to be chosen. Good luck to everyone and most of all God Bless you all. This group is what is good in this world and I wish others would follow its lead. Thank you Anna for creating this atmosphere for all of us. Happy Crafting ♥♥♥ #WinItWednesday

  • Hi Ann,
    First thanks and blessings to the donor of the create 8 event. I have been purchasing your beautiful products for several years and love them all. The create 8 event has never been in my budget for different reasons. I would be so honored to be able to take my card making to a new level. I also would love to win any of your amazing products.
    Thanks in advance.

  • I would love to win either choices! Just happy to have another opportunity to play with paper! Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!

  • I would love to win the Create 8 at home box. Thank you to the sweet donor for gifting this to us!

  • I’m always impressed by the generosity of individuals in this group! I would love to win the paper tricks or explosion box.

  • To the anonymous donor, Thank You for your service! My husband is also a Navy Veteran having served on a nuclear cruiser during the Vietnam era. I would love to win your generous donation of Create 8 as I have loved Anna’s products ever since they first appeared in stores and on TV. All her papers are timeless and so beautiful. Card making is very relaxing for me and love to learn new tricks and techniques.

  • Win It Wednesday is wonderful. I have the Paper Tricks folders and they are great. I do not have the Explosion Box kit but I would love to have it.

    I am a veteran of 20 years in the Air Force and I have my Create 8 kit already. I have a friend who is also an Air Force veteran. She recently had knee surgery and is not able to get around very well yet. I would love to win a Create 8 kit for her so she and I can attend together.

  • Hello Anna & Friends,

    I love the AG community. What generosity and kindness comes from within it. Thank you to all who have donated the Create Boxes, its inspiring to see.

    Paper tricks is a set I missed and it looks lovely!

    Best to all,
    Teresa

  • What beautiful souls of those that have donated tickets for Create 8. I would love to have this ticket so I can have as much fun as I had at Crop at home. Couldn’t afford it this time in the same year. Fingers crossed…… Meanwhile I have the Paper Tricks but I have never had the explosion card kit – it would be so fun to get this!

    Thanks Anna!

  • I would love the trick I’m cutting set oh my goodness that is so awesome thank you for considering me

  • Hi Anna!
    I would love to win the explosion card making kit! All the recipients of my cards would be so surprised!

    I would also love to win the create 8 kit and classes that were donated! Our veterans are great! My husband of 47 years had the most giving heart!
    God rest his soul.

    Anyhow I love all your products and can hardly wait to see you again on hsn!

  • Hi Anna. I would love the Paper tricks so I can do ticks with paper as you do. But I’d gladly forgo that one to win a Create Box. I have asked to win a few times. I would normally have purchased a Ticket but my husband has been having medical issues since May, and has had 6 surgeries and so he wont get to work again until maybe Xmas time. We have a minor child and his needs come before mine. But for my peace of mind, i
    need some me time, ad Create would do the trick. Thank you for listening. Regards, Sherri

  • I really want an explosion card making kit! You don’t have to give it to me, just pull one out of the warehouse and sell it to me. 🤤

  • I would love to win the Explosion Card Kit. Also, I would like to be considered for the Create 8 ticket. Thank you!

  • Anna,
    Am looking forward to the next craft event on HSN. On craft days I spend my day in the recliner watching HSN and all the beautiful projects you present. I just wish there would be more time allotted for each presentation.
    I have wanted the explosion card making kit since I first saw it presented. I would love to be able to win that item. I have so many of your card making kits & would be pleased to add this one to my collection. Thank you for your win it Wednesdays.
    Take care & look forward to seeing you on HSN on the 15th.

  • The Explosion Card Making Kit is so unique. Would love to make them. Thank you for your generosity. 😇

  • What a lovely gift from the anonymous giver! I would love to win the paper tricks as I already have the explosion card kit.

  • I would love to win the create 8 at home box. I have not been crafting a lot lately because I was caring for my sick spouse. He passed away in July and now I have more time to myself.

    I love everything Anna Griffin and bless the donor for an unselfish gift.

    Henrietta

  • I would love to participate in Create 8. It’s all new to me and I’ve never been able to go to anything like this. Create 8 sounds AMAZING! I would love to learn more about creating with Anna Griffin products and really learn how to make beautiful cards like the ones I see here. I’m a self taught card maker and new at it and would love the professional help and direction. PLEASE CHOOSE ME 😊😊💕💕

  • Love the Explosion Card Making Kit. I don’t have this one and would love to have it so I could make them.

  • Thank you to the sweet donor who desires someone to enjoy what she evidently is not able to enjoy without pain. I would be pleased to enjoy Create in her honor.

  • First of all, I would like to send a huge thank-you to the anonymous donor of this week’s Create 8 donation. You are still serving others with your donation of Create 8 and your card-making. Thank you for all of your service, not just your military career, but your now civilian service.

    I love the cut and emboss folders and would enjoy being selected as a winner.

  • The Explosion card kits are my all-time favorites of Anna’s kits. I love the beautiful quality papers and how the designs compliment each other. I have purchased both Halloween and her “everyday” explosion kits. I would love to win one!

  • Good morning, I have been watching all the excitement for Create 8. As a Mom of 4 teenagers this price is just not feasible. Praying blessings over this sweet veteran who is paying this amazing event forward. It would be awesome to win this so I could get my teenagers involved and tap into their creative sides. Make some memories with them that will last forever. Thank you for this opportunity to possibly be a winner of Create 8

  • I would love to Win the pop up kit so I could give it to my daughter she has started doing crafts and it would be fun for her to do.

  • Congratulations to all the Win It Wednesday Winners!👏 The cards displayed today are beautiful! I would love to win the EXPLOSION card
    making kit!🤞

  • I am a retired RN and enjoy creating soooo many paper items. While working I made 65 to 75 cards for my coworkers for every holiday. Each person got a handmade card on their birthday. I always enjoyed making paper happiness for all. I would love to join Create eight but due to husbands health issues finances are tight.

  • I’m new here. I just recently found out about Anna Griffin and her products. Just ordered my first die cut/embossing machine. I can wait to receive it. I would like to participate in #WinItWednesday. Today is the first time hearing about it, so I need to know how to be a part of that.

    Love all the creativity.

  • I’ve been looking for the explosion cards! Couldn’t find them on the web page, so will try again.

  • Hi Anna,

    Thank you Anonymous for your generosity and service to our country. I would love to win a chance to participate in Create 8. I love crafting and would love to go to Create 8. Thank you for the opportunity!

  • I would love the Create Box of course, however I would also like the paper tricks as well. Thanks for the Awesome give away’s 🙂

  • I would love to win the explosion card kit. I have a lot of your kits, but not that one. They are such fun and everyone loves them when they receive a homemade card!

  • I an a big fan of the cut and emboss folders, Would love to win those, and it is one set I do not have.

  • I absolutely love the explosion card!!!!! Before I used up the last card, I made my own pattern, but I would dearly love to have a new kit! my friends and family members thought it was the card with the most fun they had in years

  • I must have missed the explosion box, but it looks so cool. I love sending your unique shaped cards Truly One of a KIND. Thanks for your inspiration. Sharon

  • I love all of Anna’s card making kits. You can never have enough of Anna’s products. Love everything she creates. I have never been able to attend Create because financially it wasn’t in the budget. I Love making cards and scrapbooking and would Love to craft along with all the wonderful people in this group. Everyone is so creative. Congratulations to all the winners.

  • I would love to participate in #WinItWednesday. Blessings to the selfless and wonderful CreateAnon who has gifted this. I’m looking forward to making new friends and learning new techniques. I have a lot of AG products and have never known anyone else who crafts, makes cards, etc. So that’s why it would mean the world to me to join folks who speak the same AG language!

  • I go to a scrapbooking weekend once a month and decided rather than dragging tons of stuff I took several AG card making kits with me. I had such a great time playing with so many beautiful items. Would love to win AG supplies.

  • I’m exploding with enthusiam over the Explosion Card Making Kit!!! I would certainly be beside myself if I should be lucky enough to be a Winner of Wednesday!!! Mir

  • Hi, Anna!

    For anyone who doesn’t have either of these two items in their craft collection, I highly recommend both of them.

    The paper tricks embossing/dies are wonderful to add that extra 3D effect to your cards, and they are so easy to use.

    The explosion cards are also fabulous. It’s almost like having a “jack-in-the-box” effect when people open them and go “WOW!”

    I hope there are some lucky winners out there for these!

  • I would love to be part of Create 8 to be able to learn new things about paper crafting and be involved with others while doing it. Since the pandemic there has not been an opportunity to be with friends and family to be with personally and since my husband is quite elderly I haven’t been taking any chances on his health so I haven’t even been to a craft store in a long long time so I purchase everything on line see everything everyone is doing in the Facebook group. It would be great to be able to connect with other crafters and craft!

  • Love the explosion card kit because I haven’t made one of those yet and the colors look gorgeous. Also, I just love the generosity in this community – such a happy corner of the internet. Thanks Anna for inspiring us and bringing us all together.

  • I would love to win an Explosion Card kit to share with my sister. She has made some great ones “from scratch, ” but I have never tried making them…..seemed like too many details to keep track. I think a kit would be much easier.

  • Thank you so very much Anna and your Team for selecting me as one of the winners of the Poinsettia Pop Up Card Kit… I was blown away by how much crafty goodness you have packed into this kit. Its a Poinsettia Christmas at our house this year!

  • I have the Explosion card kit and just love it. The winner of this product would be very happy. Congrats to all of the Win It Wed winners. I hope I am next.

  • Thank you kind Anonymous crafter!
    I know you’re generous gift will make any card maker thrilled!
    Hopefully, by paying it forward your rheumatoid disease stays in check and you remain pain-free.
    Keep on crafting those beautiful cards, you never know how much they can brighten someone’s day just when they need it the most!
    God bless you, and thank you for serving our country and your generosity .👏🌻

  • I love the card kit. I had that when it first came available and I and everyone that seen it loved it! I’d love for me to win!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  • To the anonymous person that gifted the Create ticket. You will be blessed. I wanted to acknowledge you. I am not a winner but this is truly a blessing to someone.

  • I would love to win the PAPER TRICKS cut and emboss folders!! I love rosettes and the cut and emboss folders would be so simple to use. I love any kind of cut and emboss folder because it’s just one pass through and you get the best results. Thank you, Anna!

  • I love, love, love the Explosion Card Kit! I purchased the Halloween Explosion Kit a few years ago but didn’t know you had an all occasion style. I would love to have that kit.

  • I would love to win the explosion card kit. I think it is really cool looking. I am so looking forward to create 8. It will be my second year. I’m finally getting excited because it’s not that far off. Hats off to Anna and her team for all the wonderful fun projects and ideas they share.

  • I do hope to win the Booklet Album Die set from Product Preview #2. I know just who shall receive the booklet. Thanks! I shall keep trying.

  • What a beautiful, inspirational story!

    Thank you for the chance to win the Paper Tricks folders or the Explosion card kit.

  • I have never attended a create event. It would be wonderful to win the Create 8 box with all the Anna Griffin products in addition to getting the instruction live with Anna.

    A big thank you to the generous people who have donated the Create 8 boxes so others can attend.

  • I attended my 1st Create in 2019, which was Create 5, the last in-person event. It was so much fun, especially the craft room where I met some amazing people who share the love of all things Anna Griffin. I have attended Create 6 and Create 7. I would love to attend Create 8 this year but currently I’m not able to because of financial reasons. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I am selected to win the Create 8 from a very special donor who is so generous.

  • To the anonymous donor, I feel your pain. Thank you for your service and your generosity! It warms my heart that you are still going and doing. Win it Wednesday is a very heart warming part of my week. I love seeing others win something wonderful. I would love to win create to learn more techniques. To me that is the fun part. Surprising love ones with new and exciting designs.

  • I love crafting with Anna’s products. I love the polished look. Everyone says they will keep it forever. I love sharing my cards with everyone.

    Thank you,

    Kathy Lockamy

  • So kind of members to pay it forward. Hope to do that one day. Love all the giveaways and win-it-Wednesday. Congratulations to all the above winners.

  • Hi Anna❣️ What fabulous prizes for #WinItWednesday! So much fun checking the names every week! The generosity of gifting Create 8 to members of this loving community warms my heart to see! Hugs to the anonymous donor. ❤️

  • I’d love to win the create event since I’d never be able to purchase it. I’m elderly and on a set income. Sorry I’m begging but I’d love to at least try it out once Thanks

  • Thank you veteran for your service and your generous gift of the create 8 box to a lucky winner. I would love to win the paper trick cuts. They make such lovely cards. Thank you Anna for the opportunity to win.

  • The box explosion kit would be an amazing kit to win! I’ve made these before and having a kit would make it so much easier! #winitwednesday

  • What a generous gift to give someone a Create 8 package/ticket. I was able to purchase mine through HSN and hope it gets here in time to prep. I have not been able to craft for months even purchasing the Create scrapbooking package and not being able to attend. I am so happy to be back.

  • I would love to win the Create 8 boxes. I really tried this year to save for it but I came up short. Both my dad and father-in-law were World War 2 Vets. Such great men. Just lost my father-in-law just under two years ago. He was 100 and I made him a beautiful Anna card for his birthday.
    Love you Anna and Company

  • You have always inspired me to also pay it forward. I give and share your products always. I’m always telling others how genuine you are. You treat customers as family. Thank you.

  • Would love to win either item but the Create 8 would be wonderful. Even though we don’t know your name “Thank you for your service” to our country and us. Without you and those like you we would not have the freedom to do any of this! Thank you for paying it forward and to you Anna for your generosity! Lots of good people out there among the chaos! Blessings!

  • The anticipation of being chosen to receive is always fun. The Explosion card making kit would be such a blessing! It makes such a statement when opened !

    Also, I can’t even imagine winning the CREATE box of goodies ! I would think for that person they would be so overjoyed with such a blessing – given by someone so very kind. The person who gives the gift is just as blessed as the one who receives it!

    Thank you Anna for “WiN IT WEDNESDAY!”

    Such a blessing for all who have that special relationship of crafting joy with you!

  • Beautiful! I don’t have anything like these collections and would love to win one for my paper crafting. I enjoy making scrapbooks and am just learning to make cards. Thanks so much for your generosity!

  • I loved the Halloween explosion card kit, I expect this one will not disappoint! So much to create a card with a surprise. The dies look as if they would have so many applications! I would pair them with my journal dies from create 7

  • When I was a preschool teacher I loved working with the sweet three- and four-year olds. Especially when they made cards for their moms! They would get serious looks on their faces, and I knew they were planning the best cards ever filled with love to give to their moms. I can still picture them with their crayons, paper, and paste, concentrating so hard, making the masterpieces. I’m retired now and want to feel like those kids when making my masterpieces and I know that getting the chance to attend Create 8 would help me reach that goal! Thank you to Anna, her staff, and the lovely Anonymous Donor for providing and sharing this opportunity!

  • Anna,
    I joined you for Create 7 last year and then joined Finishing School. We have had a wonderful time getting to know your products. Life became too busy to register but I would be honored to win a Create8 box. My brother served in the AirForce and I honor him with your Patriotic cards every chance I get.
    Thanks for all you do.

  • Congratulations to all Winner this week!

    Anna what a kind and generous donor who’s given her life in service for our country, and for that we’re so thankful and blessed. Donor, your continued generosity and kindness will bless a Crafter immensely. We thank you once again dear Lady, and may the Lord bless you.

    Anna, as for winning one of this week’s offering, I’d like the Explosion Card Making Kit to gift to a dear Friend; she’ll be so thrilled and grateful. Or for myself, I’d like to win the Paper Tricks Cut & Emboss Folders. These will make rosettes in a jiffy and so easy.

    Thanks Anna for your generosity as always.

  • Both items are wonderful. I think I like the explosion card die because it makes a unique card.

  • I would love to be part of create this year but I’m a little short of income to be able to attend. But before I would go I would give my box to a friend. She makes cards for her church. A very generous friend and a loving friend.

  • The explosion box looks so fun and I’d love to attend create to meet other card makers. I live in a small town but since covid nobody still wants to get together so create would be so fun! Thank you anonymous donor for your awesome gift!

  • I would love to win a Chance to attend Create 8.
    I had knee surgery so spending a lot of time on the couch watching the previews I recorded from HSN October craft day. It is so generous of the donor to give someone this opportunity, thank you.

  • Anna, I would love to win the paper tricks folders! I make cards to keep in touch with friends and family far away, and to frame small keepsake photos. The tricks would add another layer of beauty 🙂

  • Oh, wow! Love what you can do with the Explosion Card kit (have been wanting to learn this technique) and the Paper Trick Cut and Emboss Folders. Would love these!

  • Such a kind, gracious woman to offer such a treasured box and CREATE experience. I do not have all the equipment to fully participate, but I’m sure who does win will cherish her/his opportunity. May the winner of the Explosion Card Making Kit enjoy it as much as I did. I even used it for some Halloween cards with bats and spiders flying out at unsuspecting recipients. Lots of laughter!!!

  • Would dearly love to win the Paper Tricks Cut and Emboss Folders…haven’t had an opportunity to try them yet. To the anonymous Veteran donor of a Create 8 ticket, thank you for your generosity and service.

  • This community is so giving. Not only the generous souls that gift the Create 8 boxes but also the love and moral support that is poured out through all avenues, be it social media, physical cards, email, blogs etc. It makes me smile to see how kind so many people really are.
    This has been a difficult year for me. I wont go in to detail. I’ve wanted to attend Create since year 1. Have not been able to make it happen yet. But still dream of making it come true one day.
    Thank you Anna for all you do. And for all the wonderful, kind individuals who are a part of this beautiful community.

  • CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS! I absolutely love the explosion making card kit!! Good luck everyone.

  • I work for a church and use your cardmaking items to bless others throughout the year. I would love to win either item you are giving away this week, and would love to win a ticket to Create 8 – I would use the items to give to those who need to be uplifted by the beauty that Anna creates.

  • I am in awe of all the generosity of this amazing group of human beings. I agree immersing yourself in paper creations makes you forget about all your troubles and brings a sense of peace to your mind and body. I wish to be chosen for the Create 8 gift to experience a chance of the perfect getaway weekend!

  • I really love the explosion card making kit. I have never seen anything like this before, and would love to try to make them. They are so beautiful.

  • Anna and Fab Team,

    MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE WINNERS!!!

    Do not feel bad if you read the list of winners twice, as I do always, and did not see your name, your turn will come!!!

    Thank you to Anna, Fab Team, and specially to all of those wonderful Griffinites that have so generously donated Create 8 event tickets!!! YOUR KINDNESS TOUCHES US ALL!!!

    All my love and admiration,

    Teresa Betancourt

  • Good morning. Looking forward to create 8 and cleaning out my craft room to prepare. Would love the explosion card making kit to fry and make explosion cards. Have a great day everyone.

  • Wow! Thank you for your service and your generous gift! My brother retired from the Navy and the ceremony they had for him brought tears to my eyes! I will never forget all the birthdays, anniversaries, and family time he missed, but he loved his job, and we loved him! Thank yu again for your service!

Because of my med issues, I am on disability and can’t afford to buy a ticket to Create 8, but would love to participate. Thank you so much for Win it Wednesday.

  • I love that you shared the amazing story of the anonymous donor. I would like to thank her for her service and incredible generosity. She wilI make someone very happy with her gift of Create 8.

  • Your dies are to “die for” and I would appreciate winning either of the ones you offer. Thank you for the opportunity.

  • I have made an explosion card before. This kit would make it so much easier. Good luck to everyone wishing to be a winner. We’re all winners who get to enjoy Anna Griffin!

  • Absolutely love the paper tricks cutting and embossing folders. The explosion cards are also fun. Would love to win it. Thank you for your kindness and giving nature Anna.

  • The card kit would be a fun card to make. I don’t understand what embossing piece does. But anything Anna makes is great.

  • I would like to win the paper tricks folder. Somehow I missed getting it. Sadly I am going to have to miss Create 8. I am having knee replacement surgery on November 30th and may have to pay for my rehab out of pocket if medicare changes their rules by then. So I will have to order it at a later date,

  • Would love to try explosion cards. Have enjoyed making rosettes so much with the Tricks dies.

  • I would love ❤️ to WIN IT WEDNESDAY and make a gift of the paper tricks cut and emboss dies —they are one of my favorites to use!
    I am also in awe of all those generous people who have made a gift of Create to someone! Still squirreling away some change myself to save for next year’s event 💰. Anxiously awaiting the HSN day to see if I can afford some of the products that were from Create .

  • Thank you for your generosity! I’d love to win so I can get my daughter started on card making! I’d love to win Create 8 ticket! Thank you to the veteran donating this. Thank you for your service as well. My husband is a veteran. There’s no way I could afford Create 8.

  • I would love to win the Cut & Emboss Paper Tricks folders. I have a new crafting friend who lives in another state. She has been making cards for awhile but has only one or two Anna G dies, one of which I sent to her. I would win this for her because she loves my cards & scrapbook pages so much that this would give her a great tool for making wonderful cards and just being able to be more creative.

  • The explosion card looks so fun. I’d love to get that. Also I just got my create 8 box and am sooooooo excited for next month.

  • Thank you to our retired Veteran for her Create 8 gifting!
    I would love to receive this gift and either if Anna’s finds this week.
    Thank you all

    Thank you!
    Michele

  • What a nice donation. I’m glad to hear that card making is helping cope with the pain.

    I have the paper tricks dies, but I will have to put the explosion card making kit on my wish list. Many different styles of cards to make with that are churning in my head 😁

  • I would love to get the explosion card kit. My grandsons would love to get them from grandma. Love all of Anna’s Beautiful kits.

  • As someone who also deals w chronic pain, it’s inspiring to meet this fellow card maker. Create seems like a chance for me to get on track in a similar way and to help me put the pain aside and focus on the good things and good people like this kind donor.

  • I want the explosion card kit so I can bless others with those beautiful, exciting cards.
    I would love the create box put I hope you can find a veteran to give it to.
    God bless the veteran who is gifting it to someone.

  • Oh Anna, to be able to make those amazing rosettes would be a thrill!!!! Thanks for the chance!!

  • I have done the explosion cards from scratch but a complete box of cards would be so much easier. Thanking you for all the great products that make cardmaking fun.

  • Hi Anna and Staff,
    If given a chance to win this Win It Wednesday, I would like to win the Paper Tricks
    and Embossing Folders. I missed those along the way and they look like they have
    some neat paper folding tricks.

  • Thank you to the anonymous donor of Create 8 event. I too am suffering from rheumatoid arthritis on top of an autoimmune disorder that I have been battling since November of last year. It’s good to hear that you are still creating cards despite your condition. I’m feeling a bit better recently because I’m taking less immunosuppressive medications so my vision is almost back to normal and I’m feeling less tired. I have been dreaming of attending the Create 8 to celebrate my 54th birthday on Oct 31 and from getting better from my autoimmune disorder. God bless you for your generosity. Thank you for sharing with your fellow crafters this event that will be wonderful and memorable! I hope your arthritis will become more manageable so you can create more without pain. Thank you and Anna for this opportunity.

  • I goes without saying I’d be blessed to receive any of your gorgeous items. I would go beyond my wildest dream to win the create kit. I’d like to say thank you for your service to the gracious person who donated it.

  • Anna, I always like to comment when you send out a BLOG. I of course would like to win a Create 8 ticket, but as much as I want to win, I am OK to see everything everyone will post in my group on Facebook. Coni

  • Both items are gorgeous! I love the Explosion Cards and the Paper tricks. It makes it so easy to create such wonderful projects! Take care❤️ and thanks for the opportunity to win!

  • Hi Anna! Would love to Win it Wednesday to create cards with my new neighbors. Have a small group of 5 that are making birthday and holiday cards for other residents-and loving it. Thank you for your beautiful collections and suggestions.

  • Hello, please consider me for the win!! I love all your items Anna ,I have a card making party every month with eldery friends they enjoy so much making cards. I would love to win!!

  • Dear Anna and Team,

    I would love too be chosen for your create 8 it would be a great way to spend my 60th birthday, the way you combine colors and fold paper just blows my mind. I don’t go to crops because of they money they cost. My husband is retired and I work driving a school which as you know they don’t make at all. If only people knew how we get treated. So if you can spear one I would love too go, it would be a dream come true for me. I won’t get too meet you in person and that is what I have always wanted to do form the first time I saw you on QVC back in 2004. The way I started into scrapbooking was my sister got married and I wanted to make her a album, I made her one from when she was born until the day before her wedding. Since than I have grown so much and as we say, you can always add more. Thank you for everything you have shown us over the 19 years I have been following you, I hope to be a lucky winner of one of your Create 8 it would make the perfect belated birthday gift I could ever get. I would like to think your team also. 👏

  • Thank God for the generous gift of a Create 8 ticket from the 74 year old crafter. I enjoyed reading her story and thank her for her service. My husband is also a Veteran. I love the Create at Home events, but because of budget restraints and the fact that I no longer am working in order to be a caregiver to my husband, I am sharing a ticket/supplies with my sister. It would be wonderful to win this gift so I could enjoy a complete set of class materials and so could my sister. You would be blessing two fellow crafters! Thank you for being so generous!

  • I already have both of the Win It Wednesday items, but just wanted to wish everyone else GOOD LUCK!

  • I would love to use the explosion card making kit…. Congratulations to all the winners for this week’s prizes

  • Anna,
    I want to go to Create 8 but I am sure there are way more deserving people out there. I just recently one a glue gun from your blog and can’t wait to use it. That’s one thing that I really really need. I have an old unbranded one that makes a terrible mess…and I want to make rosettes.

  • I’d love to win it Wednesday, especially Create. I make cards for veterans hospitals and love their responses. I love cut n emboss folders and they are so precise and creative. They add so much to my cards. Explosion cards are so fun for my great grandchildren. The kiddos love opening and closing them!
    Thank you Annaand team for sharing your goodies with your loyal followers!

  • I love your emboss and cut folders. I own quite a few, but not those. Would love to add them to my collection.

  • I would love to win the paper tricks dies! They look amazing with unlimited creative uses. I would also love to win the explosion card kit. I love to craft with my granddaughter and so fun to use all your amazing dies and kits.

  • I am not entering to win a Create 8 ticket, but I wanted to wish this week’s donor the very best of health and to thank her for her service to our country, her community, and family. She is the embodiment of generosity of spirit. Well done, dear lady!

  • Hello Anna!
    I am a big fan of all your products and I have a very nice collection of them too.
    Thank you for all you do in our crafty community!

  • I would love to attend Create! I was planning to attend when I found out it would be virtual again. However, life intervened and finances just didn’t pan out. I do intend to attend the 3rd Crop provided it’s still virtual. A giveaway a week. How exciting Anna, you have inspired so many people.

  • Yes I would love to win the embossed folders or the pop out card kit. Also I would love to be a winner of the Create 8 since I’m not able to enter the event of lack of funds being a senior citizen of 85 I live from my social security while I’m limited on what I spend. So that’s why I’m asking for a ticket. Thank you

  • Hi Anna and Team,
    Winning a craft prize is such a wonderful experience. I love all your products and it gives me such comfort when I create something beautiful. I am older now and have just completed my eight years of taking care of the two enclosed garden areas at our elementary school. I have sadly retired from doing this due to my age. Yesterday was my last day. I put the gardens to bed for the winter for the last time. My time now is going to be spent on crafting and spending time with my husband. I would love to be a winner. I wish everyone well and hope for the future.

  • What fun gifts to be giving away this week! I can’t believe I don’t own either one of these. I would love love love to win either.
    Thank you again Anna in taking the time to brighten our days with “Beautiful in the Making”.

  • I would love to win a ticket to create 8. What I would look forward to the most is being myself. Just creating with others who have the same loves. I wouldn’t feel so isolated. Being a full time caretaker is hard. I love the Anna community and their generosity. I know so many are deserving. I am praying maybe I will get the miracle of a ticket. To laugh and create and feel normal for a little bit would refresh my spirit. Thank you for the chance donor and angel in disguise. We are all sleeping with spoons under our pillows. No one believes more than our son. We believe in miracles. It’s been a hard year. I am wishing for the sparkle of a miracle. ❤️

  • There is such an amazing generousity in this group! The Explosion Box Kit looks like alot of fun! I was not able to buy it when it came out! Good Luck to all the winners!

  • Thank you to the anonymous crafter for giving yet another person the opportunity to win the Create 8 box. God bless you, and thank you for your 12 years of service in the Navy, Thank you for protecting this country and me!! You are very kind and generous to do this for one lucky person. I would be honored and very grateful to win this prize for my grandmother who has been a big fan of Anna Griffin for over 20 years, before she was on HSN and QVC. She has NEVER been able to attend one of these events, she is 83 years old, and I would really love it if you chose me so i could make her dream come true. Thanks for the opportunity to win these incredible prizes, happy crafting!! Good luck to everyone who enters and congrats to all the previous winners!!

  • #winitwednesday I look forward to Wednesday every week to see who won and what you are giving away next. I’ve tried to make the explosion cards on my own but I’m not very good at it. I think it would be wonderful to see if the kit works better. I’d love to win!

  • Ooooo.. how fun are these!! Would love to try to make some unique cards with these.
    Thanks so much!

  • I would love to be a part of Create 8! I would love to learn techniques to make cards for others. I would love to bring joy to people through our card ministry at church.

  • I would really enjoy shareing the explosion card kit with my grandkids. They love these interactive cards and I know they would especially like to share these fun cards with their friends.

  • Love the Win It Wenesday products you give away. Would love either of these. Much like the person doing the give away I have an issue with arthritis and making cards helps me keep my mind off It. I love making cards for family and friends. Being from a very large family someone always has a birthday, new born or wedding happening along with the regular holidays. Really love the card making. I need to get started on my scrapbooking; so much saved for doing them. Thank you for all the beautiful things you create for us.

  • These are great products, Anna! I love your idea of embossing/cutting folders for the seasonal (and more) icons. The explosion cards are amazing! what fun items!!

  • Praying to win create 8 love the paper tricks cut and emboss. I thought I had them all but don’t have this one. Do have the explosion kit.

  • OMG that explosion card kit is amazing and I would love to learn how to make those cards. I could just imagine the suprised looks when opening them. Your design group are so talented so please pick me.

  • Love the paper tricks, Kut, and embossed folder!

    Also, love the letter from the beautiful soul who is giving a ticket to Create 8 to someone. Her words were so touching, and reading them has already made this a Win It Wednesday! Today I pray in thanksgiving for her, and for ease in her pain.
