Miss You So Much

 Hello TGF friends! 

I'm on the blog today sharing a card inspired by those special friends and furry companions who will always hold a place in our hearts. Lately, I've been missing my sweet Zoe, and this card felt like the perfect way to express that feeling.

I used the adorable TRUE FRIEND stamp set to create this tender scene of a little girl sitting quietly beside her faithful pup. The sentiment from the Cute Script set perfectly captures the message: Miss You So Much. (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) 

To create the background, I stamped and masked the image before blending three shades of pink Distress Oxide ink through a heart splatter stencil. A few spritzes of Distress Mica Spray added a soft shimmer and extra texture. After removing the mask, I colored the image with Copic markers and added a touch of grass beneath them to ground the scene.

I trimmed the panel using a stitched rectangle die and layered it onto patterned paper.  A few enamel dots were the perfect finishing touch.

Whether you're missing a dear friend, a loved one, or a beloved pet, I hope this card reminds you that the memories we cherish stay in our hearts forever.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

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 

There Are No Words...

 Hello Crafty Friends

Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a sympathy card. My girls have been taking care of a neighbors dog, after school, for the past three years. Unfortunately she passed away of old age. 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 started by using Distress Oxide ink sprays for the background. I masked half of the card and used a frame die to cut the background and added it to a blue cardstock. 

  I colored the center images with my Copic markers and used a scalloped round die to make it the center focus.  I added a little butterfly to one corner and the sentiment was stamped in black.  

Thanks for stopping by! 

Enjoy the Summer!

The Greeting Farm: There are no words

 Hello TGF friends! 

Today I'm on The Greeting Farm blog sharing my latest card.  I created a sympathy card for a friend who lost her cat.  I used this little image from True Friend set and the sentiment from Deepest Sympathy. It was just the perfect card.   

I started by ink blending the background with Distress Oxides inks.  I die cut the little poloroid frame 3 times to give it a little more dimension.  The image was colored with Copic markers and die cut.  On the frame I added a couple of the flowers from Deepest Sympathy set, as well as the butterfly.  The sentiment was heat embossed in white. I added a few enamels dots and framed the whole card with a white stitched frame.  

Thank you for stopping by!  

Hugs

Foe my card I colored these 2 from the cute set True Friend, with Copic markers as well as the background.  I cut it in a small rectangle to create a little scene.   The sentiment is from Cute Script. I added some patterned paper and kept the card pretty simple.

The Greeting Farm: March Previews Day 3: True Friend

  Hello and welcome to the last day of The Greeting Farm April's  Previews.  We have the sweetest set today.  True Friend.  I just love all of them sitting with their pets and looking away.  So so adorable! 

I made a one layer card. I colored the image with Copic markers.  For the background I masked the image and did a circle mask.  I colored around with Distress Ink Oxides and splattered with a sparkling white paint.  I lightly colored the moon with distress inks.  The sentiment was heat embossed in black.  

Come back tomorrow for the release and a short blog hop for a chance to win this release.
