The Greeting Farm September 2024 Stamp Feature Day 2: PUMPKIN SPICE SEASON

Happy Wednesday friends! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the September 2024 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced three 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 release was so popular that all three stamp sets sold out by the second day! But don't worry, more are coming and will be in the store in about a week so keep checking back!

As fall quickly approaches, some of us are gearing up for PUMPKIN SPICE SEASON! On the farm, the leaves are changing colors and big Anya and Ian have already grabbed their pumpkin spice lattes. Life is better with a lil' spice! 


To create the background sky, I used Broken China Distress Oxide Ink with a cloud stencil. Then I added some torn green cardstock to the bottom edge. I raised big Anya, Ian, and the sentiment on foam tape for extra dimension.


Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store in about a week to grab all your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all! And please join The Greeting Farm Fan Page to share you creations. See you back here tomorrow for Day 3 of Stamp Features!

The Greeting Farm September 2024 Stamp Feature Day 1: WICKED ANYA

Happy Tuesday friends! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the September 2024 New Release at The Greeting Farm. This month, TGF introduced three 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 release was so popular that all three stamp sets sold out by the second day! But don't worry, more are coming and will be in the store in about a week so keep checking back!

Things are starting to get spooky on the farm, and WICKED ANYA has decided to come visit. This adorable witch has been seen roaming around with her jack-o-lantern candy bucket and cute kitty companion. 


I used distress oxide inks and a cloud stencil to create the cloudy night sky. Then I added some torn green cardstock to the bottom edge. I fussy cut the characters, bats, and sentiment strip to add to the card. Anya, the cat, and sentiment are raised on foam tape for extra dimension.

The Greeting Farm STAMPtember® 2024 Exclusive Collaboration for Simon Says Stamp!

Happy Saturday Friends! I have a couple more cards to share using the collaboration set The Greeting Farm created for Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® 2024! This adorable set called IT'S SPOOKY (3019SSC) features six Beans all dressed up for Halloween! There is a clown, superhero, astronaut, Maleficent, a witch, and a werewolf. It also comes with a small pumpkin candy bucket, three pieces of candy, a spider, and two sentiments. Grab this set NOW in the Simon Says Stamp Store while supplies last! 

There are two options available for purchase: the stamp set with coordinating outline dies or just the stamp set by itself. Once it's gone, it's gone forever!

USE CODE: FRSHP for free shipping on USA orders over $25!!
Or code: 799 for $7.99 off International orders over $25.
 
On Thursday, I showcased a Halloween card featuring all of the characters. Today, I wanted to show this set can be used for occasions other than Halloween so I created two simple cards featuring the superhero and astronaut. I'll have a card tomorrow using the girl clown.  
 
On the astronaut card, I used a digital paper pack from Creative Fabrica called Pastel Galaxy Space for the background. I then cut a large white circle and used Jaded Blossom Grunge Stencil over it. The sentiment is from an older The Greeting Farm stamp set called My Universe.


 
This next card features the superhero. The background paper is from Doodlebug Design Hometown USA 6x6 Paper Pad. I then used a city silhouette slimline die from Mama Elephant called Slim Film City for the bottom panel. The sentiment is from another older TGF set called Little Heroes which I heat embossed in white.  


The exclusive STAMPtember sets at Simon Says Stamp are flying off the shelves pretty quickly so if you want this set, don't wait! Grab it NOW! It's so much fun!  
 
Hugs,
Rosie

Jaded Blossom September 2024 Release BLOG HOP!

Happy Thursday friends! It's time for the Jaded Blossom September 2024 Release! To celebrate, we are having a little hop to showcase the fabulous projects created by the Design Team. If you came here from Cindy's Blog then you are in the right place. If you are just passing through, please start at the beginning because you don't want to miss a thing! I have the complete line up at the bottom of this post.

I have so many ideas in my head for the new ghost and bear dies, and I don't have enough time to get them all out, haha! I wanted to use a bunch of the new products on my project, so I decided to create a scene card. My boy and girl bear are dressed up and ready to get all the Halloween candy!


I used the pumpkin from Gnome Dies: Spooky Add Ons for the pumpkin outfit on the boy bear. The bear faces were created using the Bear Faces Stamp Set. For the girl bear, I layered 3 of the Gnome Friends: Ghost Die to make the ghost costume long enough to cover her body. TIP: You want to use only the bottom scallop part of the ghost die on the two bottom layers (if you don't trim the tops of the bottom ghost layers then the stacked paper is too thick for the die to cut the eye holes). I used a die in the Gnome Friends: Bear Die to cut out the eye holes on the ghost. The pumpkin candy basket was created using Gnome Dies: Halloween Add Ons and one of the pumpkins from Wheelbarrow Dies: Fall Add Ons. I also included the Street Lamp Die the Rickety Fence Die, and Bear Hugs Stamp Set from the new release.

I had some orange foil paper in my stash which I used on the jack-o-lantern lamp posts and I think they turned out awesome! It makes it look like they are lit up. The sign was created using a die from Fall Dies with the Ghostly Greetings Stamp Set. The silhouette scene in the background was created using Halloween Scenic Dies. The sky was created using the Grunge Background Stencil with Distress Oxide Ink.

Jaded Blossom September 2024 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

Happy Monday Friends! Today, we are on Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom September 2024 Release. You can grab the "Gotta Have It Now Package" for a discounted amount. If you wait until the release goes live, the bundle price will go up.

The new release features some ghostly and beary cute products. Today, we are focusing on ghosts! Have you seen the latest craft craze of Busted Canvases? I adapted the technique to create a busted card. I made one a few weeks back and decided to create another one for this pumpkin spice latte loving ghost. 

To create the rolled edges, I just used a craft knife and cut the paper up and down, side to side and on both diagonals leaving about a 1-ince border on all sides. Then you just roll the paper back. I added some Bearly Art Glue to hold the rolled pieces in place. The ghost was created using Gnome Dies: Ghost Friends, Ghost Faces, along with the coffee from Gnome Dies: Coffee Add Ons. The sentiment is from Ghostly Greetings Stamp Set. I inked the center area with Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink and then adhered the ghost on foam tape. The bats were created using the Halloween Banner Die. The black stars are from Doodlebug Design October Sky Shape Sprinkles

Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice!

Happy Friday everyone! We have a new Spooky Release coming to Jaded Blossom on September 12th with Sneak Peeks starting on Monday. So before I start sharing ghostly creations, I wanted to sneak in with a Pumpkin Spice card. I love everything pumpkin, and when the temps start getting cooler I crave it even more!


I cut out a tag using the Treat Tag Die. Then I stamped one of the images from the Pumpkin Juice Stamp Set with embossing ink onto the tag and embossed it with gold embossing powder. Next, I colored in the mug and leaves with Copic Markers. Lastly, I added Walnut Stain Distress Ink around the edges of the tag and orange paper. The tag is adhered to the card front using foam tape.


Remember, we have a current ANYTHING GOES Challenge until October 5th
for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group and then add your link from Facebook. There are instructions HERE to help you!

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. 
 
Have a great weekend!
