Anna Griffin Haul..it's official...I'm an Anna hoarder...

Okay, it's official...I am an Anna Griffin hoarder.  It started years ago...but was recently raised to new heights when I got an email from Anna's blog or facebook or somewhere, telling me about an upcoming BIG BIG SALE...  Well, of course I set my alarm clock and was there to "just take a look, a quick peak" at the sale.  But nooooo, Anna's website was so overcrowded with like minded fanatics, that the whole site crashed!  Yep, it looked like the gods of sanity had prevailed and were going to keep me from myself and from buying.  But despite the notices from Anna's site and facebook posting, I managed to get in...and of course because now my adrenaline was really pumping and I felt like a "winner" just for making it into the site, I bought to my hearts content...

 

 

And what does a woman do with all that Anna Griffin?  Well here are a few of the projects I made for this year...two calendars.  One is made with Anna's card and envelope kits and one is a large top flip chipboard calendar, both of which I just love having on my desks. 

I know I have shown these before, but here's June and May pages, just to show, I really do use some of my AG papers... 

I just love taking out the next months pages and finding the perfect picture, old of new (see the June calendar below is waiting for a picture we will take on Dad's Day of my hubby and son...

 

In addition to the fabulous albums and kits I bought, there were two "sticker collections" that came in a cute "book like" holder that inspired me.  So I pulled out some beautiful Pink Paislee papers...I know, why not Anna, you ask?  But anyway, following are pictures of the little book I quickly put together and made a youtube tutorial for...

 

 Above is the booklet closed and below is a photo of it opened. It measures 5" wide by 7" tall and 1.5" deep.  So easy, and I can just see making a baby brag book or quick holiday card kit or mini to give... Hope you enjoy and now I have to go see about adding on a new room to the house, for all my new Anna Griffin of course...teeheehee....

 

Here's the youtube video, if you want to take a peak...hope you enjoy...

Have fun crafting...
