I'm So Sorry - A sympathy card

  Hello Crafty Friends

Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a sympathy card.  Sadly my brother's family dog was sick and  passed away. I used this sweet image from the TRUE FRIEND set to create a sympathy card for the family.  The sentiment is from the DEEPEST SYMPATHY set.  I have combined these two sets before and I just think they make the perfect heartfelt card for the loss of a fur baby.  



I created the main scene by stamping the images and coloring them with Copic markers.  I die cut the scene with a wavy stitched round die. 



 I layered different papers and stamped the sentiment on the second one.  The main scene was added with foam adhesive for some dimension. The last thing I added enamel dots on one of the corners.


Hugs

The Greeting Farm April's Release BLOG HOP

 

The April 2025 New Release is now available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store! This month we introduced 3 new stamp sets. Our first set called BOBA PANDAS features 4 adorable Pandas enjoying the outdoors with their favorite Boba tea. Next, our favorite girl has resumed her travels and this month we have ANYA IN INDIA. Lastly, we showcased the cutest, chubbiest bees in a set called BEE HAPPY. 



For the blog hop I created a card with the adorable BOBA PANDAS.  I created the background on a heavy cardstock and sprayed it with Distress Ink and water untill I got the desire effect.  I then used a bubble stencil with Distress Inks to add all the bubbles.  Matted it with a glitter paper.  The sentiment was heat embossed in white. I used this cute little drink cup die and made it into a little shaker element.  Both pandas were colored with Copic markers and die cut.  Love how it turned out.

Happy Easter!

  Hello crafty peeps! 

I hope you are all doing great and safe from this crazy spring weather!! Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a new Easter card created with a couple of Easter digi images.  I used the cute Easter Anya, Easter Ian.  The sentiment and the little corner bunny is from the Happy Easter stamp set that is not in stock (you can request it in the Farmer's Market).   Love these two! You can use them individually or together to create the perfect Easter card.  



I started by printing these two and I superimposed them a little. That is the fun of using digis, you don't have to mask them to create a scene.  I did mask them just to do the background.  I used a splash stencil and Distress Ink Oxides with different Easter colors.  The images were colored with Copic markers, and the sentiment was added with black ink. 


I cut the scene with a stitched border die and added to a patterned paper I finished the card by adding  the little yellow bunny on the top corner with foam adhesive.  


Hope you all have a blessed Easter! 

XOXO

Small Surprises

 Hello Krafty friends! 


I'm on The Greeting Farm blog today, sharing a new card.  It could be a birthday card or just a card to wish someone a good day.   I used one of the Anyas from Anya Combo 3 set.  (not available in the store but can be requested in The Farmer's Market - HERE) Next one is happening on 4/24!  I just love all the Anyas in this set!  I also used another older set, Small Surprises for the little images and sentiment. (not available in the store but can be requested in The Farmer's Market - HERE)  This set is one of my TOP 5 TGF sets.  


I started off by creating the background with white cardstock and added a strip of patterned paper and border it with pink cardstock strips.  I die cut all with a stitched border die and matted it with patterned paper.  The sentiment was stamped in black.  



All the images were colored with Copic markers and die cut with my Scan & Cut.  I added the boba cup in a thought bubble die.  To finish I added glitter throughout the images and added pink enamel dots at the bottom.  

I really like how it turned out!!


See you next time! XOXO
