Hello friends. I am sharing some more of my cards that I designed with Anna Griffin's newest products, some of which are still available at HSN. You can view what's available for purchase right now here on Anna's page at HSN. These were created using the Antique Botanical Die Cuts I like to take multiple die cuts and layer them with 3D foam. It makes the flowers and butterflies appear to be coming off the front of the card. These die cuts are made to be layered and layered so don't be afraid to make them pop! Next are some samples with the Birthday Wishes 3D Sticker kit. I love incorporating all of my Anna Griffin products when I am creating with a specific item. can you spot all of the items I used? Dies Border Stickers Embossing Folder Card base from one of the card kits Perfect Palette Cardstock Birthday Wishes sticker sentiment Misc: punches, ribbon and bling The corners on this card are from the negative paper left over from the die cut. A double loop bow can really add something to your cards. These sentiment stickers are super fun on gift bags too! I've been very busy working on the next round of assignments.

Hello friends. Did you see Anna on HSN a few weeks ago talking about her new embossing folders with Provo Craft. I wish I could have bought that beautiful cream and gold Cuttlebug but I already have 2 machines here at home and could no justify adding a third. I did however scoop up those embossing folders! The designs are so beautiful and vintage. I fell in love immediately. Wanna see what I made with them? I love you card I wanted a window effect for this card so I embossed the patterned paper first and then cut out the oval and layered with pop dots for the depth. Then I added random 3D flowers from my stash of AG products. My Best Friend card I had some heavy weight vellum on hand so I gave it a try and the result was really pretty! I also picked up Anna's Floral Impressions Card kit and used the embossing folders along with the kit. Thank You card With Sympathy card The embossing folders really added dimension and beauty to the cardstock in the card making kit. I am glad that I have them to pair with all my Anna Griffin collections. I am sure I'll be creating many more cards with these folders but that's all I had time to make for this post. Thanks as always for stopping by!
Hello friends. Can you believe it's only 8 more days til Valentine's Day? What do you like to do for your sweetheart? I always make mine a hand made card. It's so cute that recently I was cleaning out our closet and discovered his stash of all the hand made cards I have made him over the years. It's nice to know they are cherished. Today I have some handmade Valentines to share with Anna Griffin's Juliet collection that she debuted on her "Anna-versary" special on HSN in January. Here's a look at the complete collection. Here's a few cards I created with it. I used a few of Anna's Fretwork dies for this card. I loved the variety of patterned paper, die cuts and embellishments that came in this collection. It made creating these cards a snap! Sadly this collection sold out on air so it's not currently available at HSN. I am not sure if Anna will be bringing more on her next show or not. For all of Anna Griffin's available collections and other products visit HSN. Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a creative day. {S}
Hello friends. Today I am sharing some more of the new Anna Griffin products featured on HSN earlier this month. Anna has created some stunning borders to make your paper crafting quick and easy. Here's a look at how I used them to create some cards. Tri-fold card I used the borders on the outside flaps of this tri-fold card and again on the inside. I paired these borders with the eyelet sticker borders I used some of Anna's paper pleating strips to add some dimension with the strips here. I used the borders to cover the whole cover on this card and added some vintage elements. Next I wanted to share some of the banner projects I created. The banners are self adhesive which makes them easy to use. I stamped a sentiment on one of the banners for this card. The banners are easy to layer several at one time. Add some felt flowers to create a fun look. Rosettes always create a beautiful presentation, even for a masculine card. For this card I used border strips along with the banners. That's all I have for today. Thanks for stopping by today to take a peek of my Anna projects. I also have an Anna Griffin Cards Pinterest board you can follow. Have a creative day! {S}

It has been a busy weekend here with pockets of peace. I delighted in sitting in my sunlit craft room and making some cards I need for the month of May. But first - In April my in-laws celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary! This is the card I made for that. All elements came from Anna Griffin Garden Window card kit. Green paper embossed with AG Rosette Cluster folder. I already showed you the Mother's Day card I made for my mother-in-law but here is the card I've just made for my mom. It comes from the Pretting Paintings card kit mostly. Added touches are a piece of CTMH buttercup cardstock embossed with AG Camilla Lace folder. The butterfly was cut with AG Butterfly die out of Stampin' Up Old Olive cardstock. Later this month, my brother and his wife are celebrating an anniversary so I made this card for them. This card mostly comes from the Garden Window card kit. The background was embossed with AG Fleur Rouge embossing folder and enhanced with a Galaxy Gold Dew Drop ink pad by Tsukineko. The bottom gold swirl was die cut from a gold scrap using an AG die from her Lace Trimmings collection. The butterfly was cut from white DCWV glitter paper using a die from AG Butterfly collection. Because I like to have some birthday cards on hand, I made 2 each of the next two cards. Basic elements are from Garden Window card kit. Gold back ground die is cut from gold DCWV glitter paper using AG Flourish Emblem. Purple background layer is cut from DCWV glimmer paper and embossed with AG Dancing Bows folder. The butterfly is die cut using AG Butterfly from a piece of paper included in the kit. Everything was from the Garden Window card kit but the pink layer is embossed using AG Blooming Damask folder.
