Jaded Blossom: HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!

Happy Friday everyone! We had an amazing Patriotic Release at Jaded Blossom this week (see details below)! I think the Firework Stencil is amazing so I brought it out again for another card. For this background, I used various colors of glitter paste. I love how bright and sparkly the paste is against the dark blue cardstock! After the paste dried, I splattered some white acrylic paint over the entire background. 

I tore green cardstock for the bottom of the card. The sentiment is from the new America Strong Stamp Set. I used masking tape over parts of the words when stamping the sentiment so I could position them the way I wanted. The gnome is from Gnome Dies: Santa Sleigh, his hat is from Gnome Dies, and the flag is from Gnome Dies: Patriotic Add Ons. 

 The Patriotic Bundle is at a Discount!

Only $106.99. Regular Price $117.99 

We also have a freebie item - see details below on how to qualify.

Don't forget, we have an Challenge going on right now until May 2nd in the Jaded Blossom Facebook Group for a chance to win a $20 Jaded Blossom gift certificate. 

Have a great weekend!

Jaded Blossom: MINI PATRIOTIC RELEASE DAY 2!

Hello Friends! It's time for Jaded Blossom's new mini Patriotic Release! 

We have a few new items available! Check them out HERE!

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

For my card today, I created a fireworks scene using the new Firework Stencil, along with the American Flag Dies and America Strong Stamp Set. I printed some rainbow colored paper, and added versamark embossing ink and white embossing powder to the stars only. Next, I went over the entire stencil with versamark embossing ink and this time added clear embossing powder. After heat embossing, I rubbed black ink over the entire paper while wiping the black ink off the embossed areas so the colors showed through. 

 

To create the portion at the bottom of the card, I used Christmas Scenic Dies, and cut the deer out. 

 

 

On my first card design, I added two small little gnomes from Build A Booth: Gnome Add Ons in all black to complete the black silhouette design. After taking pictures of my card, I realized it was really difficult to see the gnomes. I also felt the bottom of the card needed some color.

 

 

So, I revised it and added colored paper to define the boy and girl gnomes. 

Thanks so much for checking out my project!

And we have the Bundle at a Discount! Only $106.99. Regular Price $117.99

Jaded Blossom: MINI PATRIOTIC RELEASE DAY 1!

Hello Friends! It's time for Jaded Blossom's new mini Patriotic Release! 

We have a few new items available! Check them out HERE!

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

For my card today, I combined the new Heart Flag Dies with the Sunburst Card Mat Die. The decorative paper behind each panel is from Doodlebug Design.

 

I stamped the sentiment from the new America Strong Stamp Set onto red paper and heat embossed it in white. I used the America Strong Outline Dies to cut it out and glued it over the top of the Heart Flag. I raised the heart on foam tape for extra dimension.

 

 
Thanks so much for checking out my project! I'll be back tomorrow with another one showcasing more of the new items.

The Greeting Farm April 2026 Stamp Feature Day 3: DON'T FROGET

Happy Monday friends! We are on our last day of Stamp Features for the April 2026 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced three new stamp sets which are all available NOW for purchase. Joni and I are on the Blog this week showcasing the new release. 

Today, I'm showcasing DON'T FROGET, an adorable clear stamp set featuring 4 playful and fun frog images. It blends punny sentiments with charming illustrations, making it ideal for love notes, encouragement cards, or just-because greetings.

The background was created using a Hello Bluebird Die called Fairy Glade Scene Horizontal Die. I stamped all the images on Copic Xpress It Blending Card, and colored them with Copic Markers. The yellow spots on the frogs were added using a gel pen. I cut out all the frog images with scissors, and adhered them to the slimline card with foam tape for extra dimension.

Instead of a blog hop every month, we are having challenges in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group for a chance to win a $50 Gift Certificate to The Greeting Farm Store. The challenges start on the 15th of each month and run until the 14th of the next month so you have several weeks to work on your project. 

The challenge for APRIL is: RULE OF THREE. To enter, upload your card to the Challenge Album in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group (challenge rules will be shown under the Album). 

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

The Greeting Farm April 2026 Stamp Feature Day 2: FINE DAY ANYA

Happy Friday friends! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the April 2026 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced three new stamp sets which are all available NOW for purchase. Joni and I are on the Blog this week showcasing the new release. 

Today, I'm showcasing a charming, picnic-themed set called FINE DAY ANYA, featuring our adorable Anya wearing a wide-brimmed sun hat along with a picnic basket full of goodies. This set also includes some cute critters and decorative accents to complete the scene. It's perfect for creating friendship or thinking of you cards. 

The picnic background is a clipart scene that I printed and adhered to the card base. I stamped the images on Copic Xpress It Blending Card, colored them with Copic markers, and fussy cut them out with scissors. The bees and sentiment are stamped directly onto the paper. I added Stardust Stickles to the dandelions, bee wings, and the bow on Anya's hat to make them sparkle.

Instead of a blog hop every month, we are having challenges in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group for a chance to win a $50 Gift Certificate to The Greeting Farm Store.

The Greeting Farm April 2026 Stamp Feature Day 1: SMARTY PANTS

Happy Thursday friends! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the April 2026 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced three new stamp sets which are all available NOW for purchase. Joni and I are on the Blog this week showcasing the new release. 

Today, I am featuring SMARTY PANTS. This stamp set is an adorable collection celebrating all things studious and sweet! It features a charming lineup of book-loving critters, and captures the cozy, playful side of learning. Whether for back-to-school, teacher appreciation, or everyday encouragement, this set adds a delightful dose of brainy cuteness to your crafting. 

I printed this classroom background at 5x7 inches. Each character was stamped on Xpress It Coloring Card, and colored with Copic Markers. I then fussy cut them out. The raccoon and bunny are glued directly to the card. The hedgehog and dog are raised on foam tape for extra dimension.

Instead of a blog hop every month, we are having challenges in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group for a chance to win a $50 Gift Certificate to The Greeting Farm Store.

Today, I created a bag topper for this hot water safety bath ducky using the new products with the XL Topper Die. The previous days I focused on bears, but today the ducks get all the attention!    

The background on the bag topper was created using the Stitched Bubble Card Mat Die. I used part of the sentiment from Welcome To Parenthood Stamp Set, and replaced the duck with a larger duck from Gnome Dies: Baby Add Ons. The baby was created using dies from Baby Gnome Dies. I created a smaller pacifier using the pacifier handle and the smaller die for the middle of the bow.
