The Greeting Farm May 2026 Stamp Feature Day 1: AMELIA'S GARDEN

Happy Monday friends! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the May 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 AMELIA'S GARDEN Clear Stamp Set with Amelia the bunny enjoying all things gardening from watering flowers to picking strawberries, and harvesting carrots. It's the perfect set to create cards that celebrate friendships, growth, kindness, and the beauty of nature.

I used a pre-printed image for my background scene. After stamping and coloring all the images, I cut them out with scissors and adhered them to the card. Some of the images are raised on foam tape for extra dimension. The large stitched cloud is from Jaded Blossom.

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 MAY is: MER-MAY (use any TGF Mermaid image on your card). 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. See you back here on Wednesday for Day 2 of Stamp Features!

Hugs,
Rosie

Jaded Blossom May 2023 New Release BLOG HOP!

Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome to Jaded Blossom's May 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 several of the new products to create this mini potted plant birthday gift for that favorite gardening friend. I had these mini terracotta pots in my craft stash so I decided to put them to use. I used the Ric Tac Topper Die to create the topper of the bag of dirt. I then added the flowers from the Wheelbarrow Die and the ladybug from the Gnome Dies: Gardening Add Ons. The sentiment is from Happy Gardening.

The word flowers and the vine of leaves came from the Build A Booth: Garden Add Ons. I cut a label from sticker paper using Label Shape Dies 1, and inked it with the Vine Stencil and Distress Oxide Ink. The sentiment on the label is also from Happy Gardening.

Happy Wednesday Friends! Today we are on Day 3 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom May 2023 Release. You can grab the "Gotta Have It Now Package" now for a discounted amount. The release along with our Blog Hop will go live tomorrow!

This month we are focusing on Gardening. If you have a friend or family member in your life who loves to garden then this release is a must-have! Today, I did some gold embossing and watercoloring on this beautiful image from the new Mushroom Cluster Stamp Set. I think this stamp set is gorgeous and perfect for so many different occasions!

I stamped the image directly on watercolor paper using Versamark Embossing Ink and then heat embossed it with Ranger gold superfine embossing powder. The coloring was done with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens and a paintbrush. I added glittery enamel dots to finish off the design.

Jaded Blossom May 2023 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 2

Happy Tuesday Friends! Today we are on Day 2 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom May 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 Gardening. If you have a friend or family member in your life who loves to garden then this release is a must-have! Today, I used the new Build A Booth: Garden Add Ons with the Diagonal Card Mat Die released last month to create a Trellis design. The sentiment is from the new Plants For Sale Stamp Set.

The background was made using the new Vine Stencil with Rustic Wilderness and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Inks on watercolor paper. I then splattered water over the top to give it the white spots. I raised the trellis by cutting multiple Diagonal Card Mats from chipboard and gluing them together. The die-cut flowers were colored with Copic Markers.

Jaded Blossom May 2023 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

Happy Monday Friends! Today we are on Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom May 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 Gardening. If you have a friend or family member in your life who loves to garden then this release is a must-have! I used the Gnome Dies for the base of my gnome and then added the legs, boots, and hat from last month's Gnome Dies: Weather Add Ons. The watering can and ladybug are from this month's Gnome Dies: Garden Add Ons. I also added the new Wheelbarrow dies.

To give my die cuts more depth and dimension, I hand-colored them with Copic Markers. I've been having a lot of fun coloring this month. To make the sentiment, I combined two of them from the new Happy Gardening Stamp Set.
