COZY WINTER: The Greeting Farm October Preview Day 1

 Hello TGF Friends! 

It’s time for another fabulous release at The Greeting Farm, and we’re kicking off October with three brand-new clear stamp sets that are sure to warm your crafty heart! Don’t forget—our Blog Hop is happening on the 15th, and one lucky winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to the store!

Today’s sneak peek features the absolutely adorable COZY WINTER set. While I may not be the biggest fan of snow in real life, these two cuties are clearly loving every frosty moment! From snowball fights to snowy strolls, this set captures all the charm of a winter wonderland.

For my card, I created a playful snowy scene using a stitched hillside cover die and added a touch of sparkle with glitter on the hills. All the images were colored with Copic markers, and I popped up the characters with foam adhesive to give them a little extra dimension. The background features cozy houses, pine trees, and a cheerful snowman to complete the winter vibe.

Be sure to visit The Greeting Farm blog to see all the beautiful creations from our talented Design Team using this set—and come back tomorrow for Day 2 of our sneak peeks!

Warm hugs, Elisabete

Stay Wicked

Hello crafty friends!

I’m back on The Greeting Farm blog today with a spooktacular Halloween card that’s all treat, no trick! This one-layer scene was conjured up using the digital stamps from Miss Anya Bewitch, Haunted House and Halloween Nite—two sets that are frightfully fun and full of charm. The sentiment, “Stay Wicked,” is the only non-digi element and comes from the classic Wicked Anya stamp set (sold out at the store).

I arranged all the digi elements to create a whimsical haunted night, complete with a glowing moon, fluttering bats, floating ghosts, and a broom-riding Miss Anya with her trusty black cat. 

Everything was colored with Copic markers to bring out the rich Halloween hues, and I finished it off with a pop of orange cardstock to frame the scene.

Whether you're brewing up cards or just soaking in the spooky vibes, I hope this one inspires a little seasonal magic!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

XOXO, Elisabete

I Like Coffee & You

Hello Crafty friends! 

Who doesn’t love coffee? It’s one of those cozy indulgences that feels just right—especially in the fall. Today’s I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a slimline card that celebrates coffee with a playful twist, using the adorable CAFFEINE CRITTERS stamp set. 

To create this card, I began by stamping two of the critter images and masking them off to build a autumnal background. Using Distress Oxide Inks, I blended a warm palette of fall colors, then layered in some fun texture with a coffee splatter stencil—perfect for those realistic coffee stain effects.

The sentiment was stamped in a deep brown ink to complement the earthy tones. I colored the critters with Copic markers.  

To finish the card, I matted the main panel with a fall-themed patterned paper and a coordinating brown cardstock. A few enamel dots in matching tones added the final touch of dimension. 

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope this card inspires you to mix your love of coffee with your creativity this season.

The Greeting Farm --- September Release BLOG HOP

 

The September 2025 New Release is now available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store! This month we introduced 3 new stamp sets. Our first stamp set called WICKED ANYA features a cute witch with wand ready to add a little hocus-pocus to your projects. Next, we have AMELIA THE BUNNY, a heartwarming set with three delightful bunny illustrations to remind you comfy days are here. Lastly, we introduced HOLIDAY ANYA 13, a festive holiday stamp set with Anya bundled up in a cozy coat with her adorable penguin friend. (PLEASE NOTE: one sentiment in this set contains a small typo so it is discounted. But no worries, you will receive the corrected version as a downloadable digital file!)

For this release, I conjured up another Halloween card starring the fabulously spooky Wicked Anya. I stamped her first and masked her off to let the background magic unfold. Using a splatter stencil, I blended rich shades of Distress Oxide Ink in purples to create a mystical haze behind her.

The sentiment—"I'M UNDER YOUR SPELL"—was heat embossed in black for a bold touch. I added tiny bats and spiders to creep up the scene, and finished it off with coordinating enamel dots in the corners for a pop of Halloween sparkle.

Anya herself was colored with Copic markers, bringing her orange curls, witchy hat, and skull-accented dress to life. The entire scene was then matted with classic black and orange cardstock, tying everything together in true Halloween spirit.

HOLIDAY ANYA 13: The Greeting Farm September Preview Day 3

 Hello TGF Friends!

Welcome back to the final day of September previews at The Greeting Farm! 

Today, we're excited to introduce our annual HOLIDAY ANYA 13! I eagerly anticipate her arrival every year, and this time, she's joined by some adorable penguin friends to wish us all a very cool holiday!  ( One sentiment is misprinted so the set will be offered at a discounted amount and a correct Digi will be sent out to those who order the set).

For this card, I created a one-layer design where all the images were stamped and colored with Copic markers. The winter scene was entirely freehand with Copics as well. I then cut the scene with a deckled stitch frame die and matted it with festive Christmas patterned paper.

AMELIA THE BUNNY: The Greeting Farm September Preview Day 2

 Hello TGF Friends!

Welcome back to Day 2 of The Greeting Farm’s September previews!

We’re so excited to share one of the coziest new additions to our clear stamp collection—AMELIA THE BUNNY! This adorable set features three sweet bunnies enjoying the ultimate comfy day at home, complete with warm drinks, soft quilts, and cute accessories. Plus, it includes two heartfelt sentiments and plenty of elements to build your own cozy scene.

For today’s card, I wanted to capture that warm, snuggly feeling. I started by stamping the middle bunny and masking it, then added the other two to complete the trio. Using a heart stencil and Mica Distress Ink Oxide spray, I created a soft, sparkly background that adds a soft touch. The bunnies were colored with Copic markers to bring out their sweet personalities.

To finish the scene, I stamped and fussy cut the flower pillow and potted plant, then added a stitched border and heart accents to frame the design. The sentiment “COMFY DAYS are here” perfectly ties it all together, and the wavy stitched die adds a playful edge to the layout.

Make sure to visit the TGF blog to see how our amazing Design Team brought this set to life!

And don’t forget—our Blog Hop is coming up on the 15th, and one lucky winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to the store!

See you tomorrow for our final sneak peek!

XOXO

WICKED ANYA 2: The Greeting Farm September Preview Day 1

 Hello TGF Friends! 

Welcome to our September Release Kickoff at The Greeting Farm!  We’re bubbling with excitement as we unveil three brand-new clear stamp sets this month! And don’t forget—our Blog Hop is coming up on the 15th, where one lucky crafter will win a $50 gift certificate to the store. Mark your calendars!

Day 1 Preview: Meet WICKED ANYA 2! She’s back and more spellbinding than ever! Wicked Anya 2 is casting charm and mischief with her adorable witchy style. This set is packed with magical accessories and two fabulous sentiments that make it perfect for Halloween crafting.

She stands beside a bubbling cauldron of green potion, surrounded by a cozy brick wall and a wooden shelf filled with potion bottles. An open spellbook and glowing candle complete the scene, inviting you into her magical world.

Behind the Card: A spooky little lab to set the scene, I created a textured brick wall using Distress Crackle Opaque Paste and a stencil, then layered on moody tones of Distress Oxide sprays. A few water splatters added that eerie, aged effect.

Next came the fun part—building Anya’s potion lab! I stamped and colored all the elements with Copic markers, then die cut them. Using woodgrain cardstock, I crafted a shelf and book holder to anchor the scene. Foam adhesive gave everything a pop of dimension, making the cauldron bubble and the potions glow.

To finish it off, I stamped the sentiment “YOU BEWITCH ME,” die cut it into a circle, and matted it with orange patterned paper. 

 Head over to the TGF Blog to see what our amazing Design Team has conjured up with this set—and come back tomorrow for more sneak peeks from this magical release!
