Happy February! I can't believe it is the 2nd month of the year! The days are just flying by! This month's Farm Fresh Challenge at The Greeting Farm showcases 3D projects. Here is my entry into the challenge, a card full of handmade paper flowers, using paper punches and dies. After a few burned fingers from my trusty glue gun, I completed the card background! :)

I created a couple of cards today to celebrate the new releases!

This card showcases an image and sentiment from A LITTLE PARTY. She is super cute with her curly hair and sweet dress. She is floating away holding a pink bouquet of balloons! 

Supplies:

DCWV card base

Simon Says Stamp balloon die

This card uses the cute clear image HI ANYA. I colored her curly hair with Copic Markers and paper pieced her little dress. I love how we can change her skin, her hair color and texture, and looks with every different occasion. :)

Supplies:

Bazzill cardstock

washi tape

We R Memory Keepers mini alphabet punch board

paper doily

Copic markers

We’ll have more inspiration over the next few days using these fabulous new stamps! Don’t forget you have until Friday, January 20th, 12pm CST to leave your comments.

Happy Hopping!

Hello again! Today is Preview Day 3 of The Greeting Farm's January 2017 release GET WELL SOON. As a crafter and a nurse, I have always looked for nurse stamps and sentiments. This set has both male and female nurse images, medical images as well as sweet sentiments. They are perfect for get-well cards and my nursing peers! Remember that these stamps will not be available until the 15th! 

This clean and simple card is made up of a hand cut word bubble, mini punched hearts, a sentiment, and a Copic colored nurse image. 

Supplies:

Neenah Desert Storm cardstock 

Neenah Solar White cardstock

Stampin' Up heart punch

Copic markers

Today is Day 2 of The Greeting Farm's newest release. HI ANYA is an adorable clear stamp with a flower and a sentiment with coordinating dies. The new releases won't be available until the 15th of the month but she is worth the wait.  She isperfect for any occasion! :)

I used patterned paper from my stash to create the wallpaper, banner, and floor scene for this 6"x6" card. I also paper pieced Hi Anya's cute dress and the sofa from an older retired TGF set. 

Supplies:

Today is DAY 1 of Previews for the January release which will be available at The Greeting Farm store on the 15th of this month. The Greeting Farm's newest release called LITTLE PARTY! It's an adorable clear set of mini images and sentiments along with coordinating dies perfect for any party or celebration. Our 2017 Design Team has been busy creating projects for this fun release. Be sure to stop by tomorrow and the 13th to see more sneak peeks of the January release.  

This year, I have committed to using the supplies I have been collecting throughout the years. Who doesn't have a plethora of punches, embossing folders, and Washi tape in their crafty arsenal? I say it's time to break them out and get some use out of them. I created the card below using washi tape for the candles, a petal flower punch for the flame, and embossing folder for the background. The sweet little mini stamp and sentiment are the sweetest additions to this simple card.

Thanks so much for visiting! Until next time!
