Peace Love & Joy

 Hello TGF friends! 

Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a new project. I can't believe this is my last post of the year!!

This year has gone by so fast! I'm looking forward to the Holidays. 

For my project I created my annual Holiday Anya ornament.   I love to add these to my tree and I’ve been doing it for a few years and my goal is to go back and create the past years.  I used the adorable Holiday Anya 12. (currently sold out) 



The image was stamped and cut with a round die. The image was colored with Copic markers.   I used a round scalloped die for the backing where I added some ribbons and finished it with some enamel dots.  



Thank you for all the love this year! 

I wish you all a Blessed Thanksgiving and a wonderful Holiday Season and I will be back next year with lots of new inspiration! 

Love and Hugs

The Greeting Farm --- November Release BLOG HOP

 

The November 2024 New Release is now available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store! This month we introduced 3 new stamp sets. Our first set called ANYA'S FLOWER SHOP is the perfect set to send a thank you to dear friends and family. Next, we brought you FAIRY LOVE with 9 of the cutest little fairies ever. In our last set, DOG DAD IAN get wags and kisses from his 4 fabulous pooches because he's their best pal.

For my card I picked Dog Dad Ian and used the little dogs.  I colored them with Copic markers and die cut them with my Scan & Cut.  I created the main background and stenciled a brick wall and stamped the sentiments.  The dogs were added with foam adhesive and stamped the little paw prints.  I matted it with patterened paper. I love the more masculine theme for this card.

Best Day Ever!

 Hello TGF friends! 

Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a Disney Themed card. When I saw that this little cutie was back in the store I couldn’t resist making a card with her.  She is one of my favorite Anya’s.  Best Day Anya set combines my love for Anya and Disney.  Every year we go to Orlando for the end of the year volleyball tournament and I always use her to make goodie bags tags for the team. 



I started by creating the background with some different stencils.  First the brick wall with Distress ink Oxide Lost Shadow, and the splatter stencil I used Black Soot, Lumber Jack Plaid and Scattered Straw. I cut the background with a wavy stitched die.  


 The main image was colored with Copic markers and die cut with my Scan & Cut. I added glitter to the headband ears and added her to the background with foam adhesive.  The sentiment was stamped in black.    To finish it, all was matted with some black glitter cardstock.



Thanks for stopping by!! 

XOXO

Little Witch Flying By

TGIF crafty friends! 

It's been a long week!  Today I'm on TGF blog sharing a cute Halloween card using one of the darling witches from the Big Hocus Pocus Kit (still available in the store). All the images are just so cute! 




For this card I started working on the background.  I used heavy cardstock and ink blended Dried Marigold and Kirch Flaming Distress Ink Oxides.  I sprayed with water and speckled it with Black Soot and Fortune Teller Mica Stain Spray.



 I then used a Spider Web back drop and die cut it in a black glitter paper.  The witch was colored with Copic markers and die cut. I added glitter on some parts of her costume.  The sentiment is from Wicked Anya set and I used a bubble speech die.  The witch and the little spiders were all added to the background with foam adhesive.  




I hope you all have a great Halloween! 
Hugs
