It's Been A While...

Hi all, it's been a while, but I want you all to know that I plan to start posting craft videos again. In fact, I'm working on one right now and hope to post soon. Until then, please enjoy this travel video my husband made last Fall.

Anna Griffin Carte Noire

I love the Anna Griffin Carte Noire Craft Box and wanted to share one of my favorite cards from that set. 

I used the included idea sheet to design this unique card. 

The pink and black papers make this card look extremely elegant and I can’t wait to make more. I highly recommend this versatile set.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend! And happy Fourth of July to those of you in the USA!

Anna Griffin Slimline Compendium Card Dies

I am so happy that I purchased  Anna Griffin’s  Slimline Compendium Card Dies.   I was nervous at first to try the slimline format, but quickly fell in love with it. I really enjoy making different sized cards. 

For this card, I used paper and embellishments from my Anna stash.

I hope you are having a fun day! 

Sending You Cheer

I love the Anna Griffin Gentleman Study Card Dies.

For this card I used Anna’s Holiday Cigar Label and Sentiment Stickers along with her Gentleman Study dies. This die set is one of my favorites and I use it frequently.

Hope you are having a happy holiday season.

Anna Griffin Snow Globe Card Dies and Stickers

I have had this die for years and it is finally back in stock. Yahoo! 

For this card, I used Anna’s Snow Globe Card Dies and her Mini Snow Globe Scene Stickers. 

I love this set! You can use it for every season! 

Last summer, I made a shaker card using this set. 

I love how versatile this set is! 

A closer look at the shaker background.

I hope you are having a warm winter crafting day.

Anna Griffin China Cabinet

I pu        rchased Anna Griffin’s Christmas China Cabinet Card Making Kit  and I love it. You will need to use the dies from her China Cabinet Embossing Folder with Dies Set to complete this project. 

This card was featured in one of Anna's Charm School classes. I made a few modifications to it and I love how it turned out! 

This Christmas add-on kit is amazing!

Hope you are having a happy holiday season.

Anna Griffin Photo Card Easel Dies

I was so fortunate to attend Anna Griffin's Create 7 last month. We made this card during Create and I love how it turned out. I made the card so I could slip in our Christmas Photo. 

This Photo Easel Set can be used for any season and you can also make it in a vertical format. I plan to make several this year.  I can’t wait until Create 8!

Have a safe and wonderful Holiday!

Anna Griffin Snowflake Wonderland Craft Box

I purchased Anna Griffin’s Snowflake Wonderland Craft Box as part of my auto-ship. This was one of my favorite auto-ships and I love it! 

 This card was easy to make thanks to Anna’s Finishing School video. 

This kit is amazing, and I can’t wait to finish watching Finishing School and make another card.

Hope this post finds you safe and well.

Anna Griffin Slimline Concentric Dies

I am so happy that I purchased Anna’s Slimline Concentric Dies.  I was nervous at first to try the slimline format, but quickly fell in love with it. I really enjoy making different sized cards.

For this card, I used paper and embellishments from my Anna stash. This is one of my all-time favorite dies! I love combining blue and orange.

I hope you are having a fun fall day.

Anna Griffin 3D Haunted House Dies Version 2

I am loving my Anna’s 3D Haunted House Dies! For my second card, I made a quick and easy shaped  card.

For this card, I used  Anna’s Spooky Matt Foil Card Stock and embellishments from my Anna stash.

I love the owl and tree dies that are part of this set. I made the banner using my Cricut and a print and cut file. Purple is my favorite color, so I loved how this card turned out. 

I hope you are having a wonderful day! 

Anna Griffin Salon Nouveau Easel Card

I made a quick and easy easel card using dies from the Salon Nouveau Craft Box.

It is so easy to create an easel card using Anna’s dies. 

I used paper, a bow and embellishments from my Anna stash to create this card. I love the soft and delicate colors.

I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Anna Griffin 3D Haunted House Dies Version One

I recently purchased Anna’s 3D Haunted House Dies and I love them. Before purchasing any new product, I ask myself if I can use it in three different ways. It was so easy to use this set  in many different ways. So far, I have made a  5 x 7 card, a shaped card and an easel card. I hope to share these cards with you over the next couple of weeks. 

For this card, I used  Anna’s Spooky Matt Foil Card Stock and embellishments from my Anna stash.

I used my Cricut to cut the bat and added an Anna sentiment and was done. This card is for a friend who has a late October birthday.

I hope you are having a wonderful fall day! 

Anna Griffin Gentleman’s Slimline Concentric Dies

I have been experimenting with slimline card designs and love making them! 

I recently purchased Anna’s new Gentleman’s Slimline Concentric Dies and am thrilled with them. You will see many different slimline cards soon. 

For this card I used Anna’s matt gold foil and paper from my Anna stash. I added a sentiment and bow and was finished. I love how you can use these dies to make a masculine or feminine card!

Have a wonderful day!

Anna Griffin Snow Globe Die Shaker Card

I have had this die for years and it is totally sold out. But the good news is that Anna has a new Snow Globe Easel Card Die and it looks amazing! 

For this card, I used Anna’s Snow Globe Die and turned it into a shaker card. I saw this design on HSN and had to copy it. 

I used glitter and Anna paper from my stash to create this adorable card. I added an Anna ribbon and was done. I love the colors and how this card turned out. 

Hope you are enjoying your summer.

Anna Griffin Hot Air Balloon Easel Die

Did I mention I am a huge fan of Anna’s Easel Dies and I have several of them?

For this card, I used Anna’s Hot Air Balloon Easel Dies and assorted paper from my Anna stash.

This card was super simple to make.  I used Anna Griffin stickers and sentiment and was done in minutes. The hardest part is picking the paper and stickers. The dies do most of the work!

Hope you are enjoying your summer.
