The Greeting Farm August 2025 Stamp Feature Day 1: EMOJI COUPLE

Happy Tuesday friends! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the August 2025 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 Greeting Farm Blog this week showcasing the new release. 

Today, my card features EMOJI COUPLE with a studious Anya and Ian as they head off to school with smiles. What makes this set extra fun? EMOJI signs! From happy faces to heart eyes, these expressive icons let you personalize your card with feelings and reactions. 

I stamped several of the emoji stamps on white cardstock to create my own pattern paper. The scallop border is a My Favorite Things Die. The sky was created using ink and a stencil. I used some deckle scissors to cut a strip of paper and inked it with green ink to create the grass. The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom.

Anya and Ian have bought a farm! In this set called FUN ON THE FARM, our sweet couple is busy raising chickens, sheep, and little piggies. This set is definitely loads of fun!

The Greeting Farm November 2023 Stamp Feature Day 2: SWEATER COUPLE

 Happy Friday! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the November 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. Remember, we have a Blog Hop going on until the 18th, and 1 lucky person will take home all 3 stamp sets!

Today, Anya, Ian, and their kitty are outside enjoying the cooler weather and the colorful leaves in this next set called SWEATER COUPLE. I love that all 3 are in coordinating sweaters! I stamped the characters on Copic Xpress It Blending Card and colored in parts of the image with Copic Markers. Then I stamped the images again on patterned paper, fussy cut the sweaters out and glued them onto my colored images. I usually make the couple look like me and Paul, but this time I colored them to look like my son and his girlfriend.

I mixed and matched various patterned papers to create this scene from their sweaters, to the leaf background, and the wood pattern at the top of the card to mimic a tree branch. I tore green paper for the grass, but the paper was too bright so I used markers to make the green darker.

 

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! The last day of Stamp Features will resume on Monday.

I stamped the little tree included in the set on green cardstock and fussy cut them out. Then I cut a thin strip of brown cardstock to make longer tree trunks so they would be taller evergreens behind my characters. The sentiment is also part of the Mini-Remix Winter set.

The Greeting Farm Digi Stamp Feature: PICNIC

 Happy Monday everyone! Today, we have a Digital Stamp Feature for The Greeting Farm showcasing the new digi released on June 1st called PICNIC. I have loved seeing all the creative combinations the Digi Team has come up with using these images!

I am definitely not a master at creating digi scenes, but I do love digi stamps. The great thing about the digital sets from The Greeting Farm is that Marie includes a summary sheet of all the digis together in one picture. I usually just copy that summary picture, paste into Word, print and then fussy cut the images I want to use for my card. I can then add the digis to patterned paper to create a scene the way I'm used to doing it.

For this card I used papers from Doodlebug Design Bar-B-Cute 6x6 Paper Pad. If you are a follower of mine then you know that I love Doodlebug Design papers! I then raised Ian, Anya, the food board and sentiment on foam tape for extra dimension.
