The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature - Eggstra Special

Howdy!  How did you like The Greeting Farm's Magical Friend's set?  Isn't it adorable?  Today we are featuring the Eggstra Special stamp set.  Obviously it's perfect for Easter but you can also use it creating a baby theme card, favor, invite and of course use it for your daily documenting!  But for today's sample I of course chose to use it for an Easter themed project.  I may host this year's Easter get together since I didn't have time or energy to do my annual Christmas Eve get together.  I thought these cute baskets would be perfect for the nieces.  Even if they are getting older, who doesn't want a basket full of candy?  I know I still do (^_^)


Don't forget to check out The Greeting Farm's blog to see what Joni and Rosie created!  Have a great day!

The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature - Magical Friends

Hey there!  I'm back with another TGF Stamp Feature from the January 15 release.  Today's feature is the ever so cute Magical Friends set.  This set is 4x6 and has coordinating dies which you can purchase separately.  I have many friends that have used ponies and unicorns for their daughter's bday party them and actually had a request to create a mock up invite and goodie bag.  Sooo with that said, here's my take on a birthday invitation and favor.  Enjoy!



This stamp set along with the other two new stamp sets are available at The Greeting Farm Store.  Make sure to visit The Greeting Farm blog to see what my fellow DT has created!

The Greeting Farm Ezra Preview

Hi all!  Today we at the Farm are previewing SSSC no 19 Ezra!  I love how he has a Polaroid!  Polaroids are back in and I hope they're here to stay!  I have several now made or at least popularized by Fuji.  I actually prefer the Fuji brand to that of the Polaroid brand.  Any who...today we are showcasing Ezra no. 19 of the SSSC family.  If you're unfamiliar with the Super Secret Stamp Club (SSSC) here's a brief summary: 

The Super Secret Stamp Club is a 3-month online subscription where members receive a 3×4 special edition ‘mystery’ TGF stamp each month at an exclusive membership price of $8. SSSC Members get the stamp 1-5 months prior to it being released to the general public at the retail price of $12. The Secret Stamps ship the first week of each month (with the exception of international orders where all 3 stamps ship at the end of the second month) during the period in which you’ve registered for.

I created a Instagram box which will house my Instax prints until I can scrap them.  I just love it.  Its a super simple box/creation but if you follow me, you know I like my stuff simple. (^_^)


Tomorrow December 15 is when all three stamps that we've been previewing will be available for purchase.  Make sure to stop by tomorrow because we got one more preview of all three stamps!  Have a great day and check out The Greeting Farm blog to see what Joni and Rosie created!

The Greeting Farm's Nov 15th Release

Hi friends!  I've been super busy with deadlines, house stuff and the holidays I wasn't able to post my blog post for the 17 and 18th so I decided to combine all three of my samples for The Greeting Farm's Nov 15th release that myself, Rosie and Joni contributed to.  So without boring you with idle chit chat...lets check them out!

My first project is using the sweet Lucky Dog set and it's coordinating dies.  If you wanna see the sets I have a first look video here.  On this project I made a dog house/box to hold some chocolates for the groomers.  This box will go to Roxy's groomer since the puppy resembles Roxy more than it does Fuji.  (^_^)






Second project is a card using the Purfect Cats and it's coordinating die.  I got my new die from Stampin' Up Hearth & Home so I wanted to incorporate it into my project since cats loves laying on the window sills. 





Last but not least one of my favorite Anya's!  She's called Anya Nerds Out!  I love the big Anya's so I was super stoked when I got my package and saw her!  I adore Cheeky Geeky so naturally I loved this one as much!  Just an FYI, I paper pieced her hair, I do that when I'm running low on time.  Coloring it and get it all shaded was just too much time for me, this was easier.  So if you're ever in a rush and want to get her hair all even and quickly done...paper piecing is the way to go IMHO (^_^)


As always thank you so much for stopping by!!!

TGF SSSC no. 17 - Poppy Preview

Welcome back everyone!  Today we are previewing Poppy from TGF's  SSSC no 17!  Isn't she cute?  Like I always say in my blog post, I don't like to create items for the sake of just creating them.  I like them to have a purpose and be useful.  So when I created today's project, I created it because every month, I have to take my Yorkie in for an anal expression (gross I know!)  but it's something I have to do!  I'm always at the vets if it's for this issue or another, I'm always there.  The vets and staff all know me and my two fur babies pretty well so I always like to give them some goodies when I visit because they take such great care of my dogs.  So for this particular issue, I thought what better giftto give the vet tech then some antibacterial hand gels.  LOL!  I'm sure they're not too fond of this particular procedure and it isn't the most pleasant thing to do...so why not hand gels?  hahaha!  Any who, here's my little box housing the hand gel.




Again thank you for stopping by!  As always please check out The Greeting Farm blog to see what my fellow DT has created!  And don't forget to stop by tomorrow, I have two more projects using both So Hip and Poppy!  Have a great week!  Aloha!

The Greeting Farm Preview - SSSC No. 16 So Hip

Hello everyone!  Today The Greeting Farm (TGF) is previewing the Super Secret Stamp Club (SSSC) stamp no. 16 - So Hip!  I absolutely love her and I do think she's super hip (^_^)  If you don't know much about TGF's SSSC, here's a little info on it: 

  • Super Secret Stamp Club is a 3-month online subscription where members receive a 3x4 special edition ‘mystery’ TGF stamp each month at an exclusive membership price of $8. PLUS members will get the stamp 1-5 months prior to it being released to general public at the exclusive edition retail price of $12. Secret stamp will ship the first week of each month (with the exception of international orders which will ship all 3 stamps at the end of the second month) during the period in which you've registered for.
So Hip was in the last round of SSSC (we are in a new round currently) so it will now be available to the public on Oct 15 if you did not sign up for SSSC.  I know a lot of people have been asking for it, so I'm really excited for those that missed her because now you can get your little crafty hands on her in a couple of days!  Yeay!

OK, on to my card...I created a pop up/slide up gift card holder.  I absolutely love making these!  It beats those boring gift card holders that you get from the store and your recipient is in awe how you made it slide up.  LOL!  OK, maybe not but I am! haha!  So without further adieu here's what I created!



As always,  thanks for stopping by!  Please visit The Greeting Farm's blog to see what my fellow DT's created

TGF - Sing Hello

Last feature post for The Greeting Farm.  Today we are featuring Sing Hello and it's coordinating die.  I have lots of plans for this stamp set!  But today I made this little cup and it's holder and added one of the two super cute girl from the set.  I couldn't really add much to this holder since it's super small.  The holder measures 5x2 and the cup inside measures 3 inches high...super small huh?  LOL!  I just love it and I plan on giving these away...not sure to who but I'll be making a bunch of these cuties for the holidays.

TGF - Let it Snow

I'm back with another TGF Feature.  Today we are featuring the stamp set Let it Snow along with it's coordinating die.  I knew exactly what I wanted to create with this stamp set as soon as I got it.  I love making this tea box to give away and thought the bear with the mug was just too perfect for it.  I usually give some yummy little lemon cakes with my tea box and will make a separate post on that when I'm ready to give it.  Like I mentioned in yesterday's blog, I am starting early for this Christmas!  Wish me luck!  LOL!  Onto my project...





Thanks for stopping by and please do check out The Greeting Farm blog for more inspirations!

TGF - Happy Winter

Hello!  Today me, Rosie and Joni are doing up a Stamp Feature of the new TGF release.  BTW, did you happen to check out the new goodies?  Aren't they adorable?!?!?!  I was super excited when I opened up my package and saw there were THREE photopolymer stamps WITH coordinating dies!  Today we are featuring Happy Winter!  I have started on my Christmas projects because I NEED to!  I always have plans to start my projects early but I always seem to run out of time.  Not this year!  LOL!  I'm laughing because I hope I can pull through this year.  Anyhow, here is my project for today's featured stamp set - Happy Winter and coordinating dies.  I can't tell you how this set and the other new releases has made my life easier!  First off, no more fussy cutting and second, it's super easy to color because they are a lot smaller than the other stamps.  So mass producing these will be super easy and fast!

Special Release on The Greeting Farm Today!

OK, one last blog post for this Special Release!  Today is the day where you can purchase the two new stamps - SSSSC no. 14 Love Peppermint and no. 15 Rose at The Greeting Farm store.  Here are two more projects I created using both stamps:

This first project I made a Christmas card (you can never be too early to start creating for Christmas!).  I have tons of Pocket Style scrapping supplies, I thought what better way to use them up and put them on a card!  Simple card, but I really like it.  Hope you do too!


For my second project, I needed another bookmark so I created it with Rose.  Goes well with yesterday's post don't you think (^_~)  I tried to keep this one as flat as possible.  She is with me on my trip as we speak.  Again, I used one of the filler cards from One Little Bird's Pocket Style cards cut the top two corners, hole in center and embellished a little.  I love it when I could shop my supplies and use it to create all sort of things!
 

Hope you enjoy this blog post!  Please visit The Greeting Farm's blog for more inspiration and don't forget to grab you these two adorable stamps!
