Hello friends! How is everyone doing? I hope you have had a great start to the New Year! You may not know this about me; but I am a variety person. I love buffets, many different crafting suppliers, etc. Most of all, I love CTMH as my main supplier for most of my crafts. But, I still have to have those quick card kits; especially Anna Griffin. I love her products and especially her Cricut Cartridges.
I am a collector. I collect so many things in the crafting world. My biggest one is patterned papers and printed cardstock. I also love digis and own almost 20,000 of them. Can you believe that? I use as many as I can; but I will probably never use all of them that I have bought over the past 5 years. I try to support my favorite artists; which is why I buy so many. But, I do love creating cards that I don't have to color once in a while.
I created this Anna Griffin flip card for my sister, Becky a few weeks ago. It still takes me longer than most people to decide what I want to use and how I want to put it together. Quick and easy for me is an hour or two; rather than a few days. LOL! Even one of these quick cards has taken me as much as 3 days; with the thinking process, etc. Especially if I don't really know the person I am sending it to. It is harder to make a card for someone you aren't familiar with. Right?
Inside card
These flip cards are like triple folded; so it is hard to take a picture of them.

This is lovely! I can relate to your "process" - especially taking time to decide what materials to use. Thanks for sharing your card at the QKR Stampede weekly challenge - Anything Goes / with an optional twist for the kids. Dorothy S, DT member
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful & I know your sister will adore it! And you are so right, it IS harder to make a card for someone you don't know well. Thanks for joining our weekly challenge at QKR Stampede!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card!Thanks for joining us at ScrapbookStampSociety Challenge.Good luck and Hope to see you again.Gr.Kaija Dt-member
ReplyDeleteSuper pretty card. Did you get all three of the flip-it sets on auto ship? I did and it can be overwhelming. I love the papers and the embellishments you chose. Thank you for joining the DL.ART Thankful Thursday January Linky Challenge.
ReplyDeleteHi Katieo. Yes, I did. I got them late; not in the auto ship; but I was able to get all 3. I love them. I haven't tried to cut with the dies yet. Thanks so much for your comment. Hugs.
DeleteI am really drawn to the lovely water color flowers on your card and am very impressed with the "workings" of the flip elements. Glad to know I'm not the only one who takes a long time to make card decisions....however, it is such fun to customize a card for a loved one. Thanks so much for playing along at Jo's Scrap Shack.

WOW this is a lovely card. I too find it difficult to make a card for someone you do not know. I am sure your sister will just love the card. Thanks for joining us at the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenges for our latest challenge. We look forward to seeing more of your beautiful work. {Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenges} Hugs, Barbara
ReplyDeleteWow this is just a gorgeous card! I really love that Anna comes out with these easy card kits because sometimes we don't always have the time to sit there for an hour to put a card together and these come together in minutes and look like you spent all day on them! I absolutely love this card! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week in our Funday Friday challenge!! Remember we are now always anything goes! Have a wonderful day!
