Swimming By To Say Hello!

 

Hello Crafty Friends! 

It’s May, and you know what that means… MerMay is officially here! As a huge mermaid fan, this month always inspires me to pull out some of my favorite fin‑tastic sets from The Greeting Farm. Today I’m on the TGF Blog sharing a sweet underwater card featuring one of the adorable mermaids from the MERMAIDS GALORE set. (This stamp set is currently not in the store, but can be requested for a future Farmers Market using the Contact Page on the store site- HERE) 

Card details: 

• For the background I used a swirl-dot embossing folder to create a bubbly ocean texture, then added some ink blending with Distress Ink Oxides.  
• I cut it with a stitched wavy border die and layered it over a coordinating patterned paper.
• The sentiemt was staped in black. 

• 
  
  
• 
  
• I stamped and colored  all the images with Copic markers. Die cut them and added them to the background with foam adhesive.. 
• To finish the card I added some coordinating enamel dots.   

Thanks so much for stopping by today — wishing you a magical and marvelous MerMay!

Hugs!

It's For You!

Hello crafty friends!

Today I’m over on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a sweet birthday/thinking‑of‑you card featuring one of the adorable Anyas from the Anya Reboot 2 set. I just love her cute little pose holding the cupcakes and that tiny butterfly in her hair — she feels so cheerful and ready to brighten someone’s day! (This stamp set is currently not in the store, but can be requested for a future Farmers Market using the Contact Page on the store site- HERE) 

 For my card: 

• I created the background using a retro grid‑style die and cut it from a peach gradient paper for a fun pop of color.
• To make it stand out, I layered the panel over black glitter cardstock for bold contrast.
• Anya was stamped, colored with Copic markers, and cut out using my Scan & Cut.

• The sentiment “It’s For You!”, from the same set,  was stamped in black embossing powder and added on a banner for a clean, crisp look.
• Everything was adhered with foam tape for dimension, and I finished the card with a few coordinating enamel dots.

Happy Easter

 Hello crafty friends!

I’m stopping by the TGF blog today with a bright and happy Easter card to share. I used the adorable HAPPY EASTER ANYA digital set to create this sweet little spring scene filled with colorful tulips and tiny chicks.

To put my card together, I arranged all the digital elements in a Word document until everything looked just right. I printed the scene on Copic-friendly paper and colored it with Copic markers.

 After that, I used a frayed stitched border die to cut the panel and layered it over a fun, pastel-patterned background. For a pop of extra color, I added a few matching enamel dots in the top corners.

Such a simple card to make—and so much fun too!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Wishing you all a joyful and blessed Easter!

Fun Is Where You Are - Valentine's Card

 It’s February and love is definitely in the air! I’m back on The Greeting Farm blog today with a sweet Valentine’s card featuring the adorable couple from the Forever With You stamp set.

To create the background, I used a splatter heart stencil and blended several shades of red and pink Distress Oxide inks. While the stencil was still in place, I added a light mist of Mica Distress Oxide spray for a soft shimmer that catches the light beautifully. Once everything dried, I trimmed the panel with a stitched border die.

The couple and their cute little cat were stamped, colored with Copic markers, and cut out using my Scan & Cut. I stamped the sentiment in black ink and adhered the characters with foam adhesive for dimension. The entire scene was then layered onto coordinating patterned paper—also popped up with foam adhesive for extra depth.  A few enamel dots in the corner finish the card with a playful touch.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Wishing you a wonderful and love‑filled day!
