The Greeting Farm March 2023 Stamp Feature Day 3: MINKIE NEIGHBORS

 Happy Tuesday everyone! We are on our last day of Stamp Features for the March 2023 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced 3 new stamp sets which are all available now for purchase. Claudette, Joni and I are on The Greeting Farm Blog showcasing the new release.

This next set called MINKIE NEIGHBORS comes with 4 neighbors hanging out their windows, and catching up on life. It's the perfect set for a new person moving into the neighborhood. I created a mini slimline card and was able to fit 3 of the minkies. 

 
I'm a sucker for digital paper! You can find pretty much any theme you need and it makes creating a card quicker. I can focus on coloring the stamps and not have to stress about creating a background. 

 
Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all! And please join The Greeting Farm Fan Page to share you creations.

Hugs,

The Greeting Farm March 2023 Stamp Feature Day 2: WHAT'S BUZZIN'?

TGIF everyone! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the March 2023 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced 3 new stamp sets which are all available now for purchase. Claudette, Joni and I are on The Greeting Farm Blog showcasing the new release. Don't forget about the TGF Blog Hop where 1 lucky person will take home all 3 stamp sets!

This next adorable set is called WHAT'S BUZZIN'? OMGEEEEEE, these chubby bees make me smile!! I love that they are in different positions and not just a side view of a bee. They have so much personality!!

I found some cute bee chocolates and decided to create a Candy Caddy using a die from Jaded Blossom. The honeycomb paper is from a digital paper pack. The sentiment, bees, and flowers are all from the What's Buzzin'? set. I had to put the bee chillin on his back on the clothespin, haha!

So what does this candy caddy hold? Well, lookie lookie.....bee chocolates of course!! Aren't they fabulous?!!

 Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all! And please join The Greeting Farm Fan Page to share you creations. We would love to see them! See you back here on Tuesday for day 3 of Stamp Features!

The Greeting Farm March 2023 Stamp Feature Day 1: EXPLORE ANYA FB

 Happy Thursday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the March 2023 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced 3 new stamp sets which are all available now for purchase. Claudette, Joni and I are on The Greeting Farm Blog showcasing the new release. Don't forget about the TGF Blog Hop where 1 lucky person will take home all 3 stamp sets!

This set called EXPLORE ANYA FB (front/back) features Anya with her backpack ready for a day of adventure! I love that it has a front facing Anya along with a back view of Anya. There are so many possibilities with this set!!

 
I found a digital Italy scene on Creative Fabrica, and printed it out to use as my background. The sentiment says "Make Your Own Path". I should have used black ink for the sentiment because the gold is a little hard to see. I also added the squirrel from the set on the cobblestone road. He's greeting Anya with an acorn. I think the next time I create this card, I will lighten the colors on the background so Anya stands out more.

 
Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all! And please join The Greeting Farm Fan Page to share you creations. We would love to see them! See you back here tomorrow for day 2 of Stamp Features!

Hugs,

Jaded Blossom March 2023 New Release BLOG HOP!

 Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome to Jaded Blossom's March 2023 New Release Blog Hop! Now, if you're here from Jamie's Blog, you're in the right place. If you're just passing through start at the beginning because you don't want to miss a thing. I also have the complete line up at the bottom.

  For my project, I used the Scallop Caddy Die to create a tag card. It can be tied to the carrot candy tube, but then displayed as a card once taken off.  

 
The carrot background was created using the Carrot Stencil. I cut a separate Scallop Caddy panel from green cardstock and tore it about an inch from the bottom to create the grassy area. The two carrots in the ground were created using the Build A Booth: Easter Add Ons. Of course, I had to squeeze a gnome on it, haha! I used the carrot hat from the Gnome Dies: Easter Add Ons 2, but cut it shorter. The sentiment is from the Easter Tweeting Stamp Set.

I wanted to make it look like the gnome was peeking out from the corner so I put him on the tag card at an angle and trimmed off the edges.

I wanted this card to be a little whimsical, so I used the FREEBIE Chubby Bunny Die and added him in the bottom corner peeking out from the tulips. He makes me giggle!! He's got his sunglasses on trying to be incognito, haha! The sentiment is from an older set called Floral Bunny Ears.

One of the things I love to do is to cut my die pieces from Copic Xpress It Blending Card and use my markers to color in the pieces. It just gives the finish product more dimension. I also like to move the gnome hat up a little and create a face for my gnome. I used the gnome hands to create the feet for the sitting chick. These chickies are just the sweetest!

Jaded Blossom March 2023 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

 Happy Monday Friends! Today we are on Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom March 2023 Release. You can grab the "Gotta Have It Now Package" now for a discounted amount. If you wait until the release goes live the bundle price will go up.

This month we are focusing on Easter, and let me tell you this release is AMAZING!! We have some new gnome die add-ons which of course make me giddy, and a new add-on to the Booth! These products coordinate together beautifully. I had so much fun creating with this release! I used all the new products being showcased today to create this holder for some chocolate carrots. Isn't the Easter gnome adorable?!! 

To create the holder, I started off with the Crate Die. I trimmed off the top portion of the crate so it didn't stick out above the booth die. Then I cut the main shape of the booth from Kraft cardstock twice to go on the front and back of the crate die. I cut a white panel just a tad smaller than the booth and stenciled on the carrots to go on the bottom of the booth. I trimmed a white rectangle to create the "Carrots" sign. 

I used the rectangle panel from the Booth Dies to cut a piece from Kraft cardstock to go at the top of the booth so I could stamp Cottontail Farms. The Easter basket is from an older die set called Gnome Dies: Easter Add Ons. The chocolate carrots came from the Dollar Tree.

*************************

For my project today, I created an 80's themed card. I also made my own background paper using the cassette tape stamp from the 80's Icons Stamp Set. I love that there are several coordinating Jaded Blossom stamp sets with images small enough to create your own decorative paper! The boom box is from the Kawaii 80's Stamp Set. 

 

 
I used bright colors because....hello, the 80's! The awesome sentiment is from the Music To My Ears Stamp Set. I created the black scallop circle using the Scallop Circle Dies.

Jaded Blossom: Just A Little Corny Card

 Happy Friday everyone! I'm back today with my latest project for Jaded Blossom. If you've followed me for a bit then you know that I love to use smaller Jaded Blossom stamps to create my own background paper. For this card, I knew I wanted to use the adorable, quirky corn from the Aww Shucks Stamp Set. I remembered the Kawaii Candies 2 had a small corn image so I used it to stamp a random pattern on my paper and voila.....I had some cute patterned paper!

To create the scallop border on the patterned paper I used Border Dies 2. The awesome sentiment is from Gobble Up Gnomie Stamp Set. This card just makes me giggle!

 

Remember, Jaded Blossom has a current MONOCHROMATIC Challenge. You have until March 4th to play along for a chance to win a free stamp set! And be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 

Hugs,
