I have several card kits in my stash from Diamond Press and decided to put together a slimline card featuring a gold HELLO sentiment. I love that their card kits come with card bases, ephemera, sentiments, along with a load of other embellishments!

 

I layered a bunch of I Am Roses flowers along the edge and at the bottom of the bird ephemera. There is a pink floral spray along the side, along with a R43 pink peony to fill the bottom. Intertwined thorough out are little lilies, cherry blossoms, and small achillea cottage flowers.

 

 

I found some pearl sprays in my stash, and some tiny butterflies.

The Greeting Farm November 2025 Stamp Feature Day 2: HAPPY SHOPPING

Happy Wednesday friends! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the November 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 Blog this week showcasing the new release. 

Today, I am featuring HAPPY SHOPPING stamp set, which comes with a stylish cat sipping coffee, a cheerful pig carrying a bag of fresh bread, and an adorable bunny with her shopping bags as they enjoy a day out on the town! We've included a charming coffee shop, cozy bakery, and a two-story building to help you create the perfect shopping district. 

To create the scene, I used Mama Elephant's Slim Comic Strip Creative Cuts for the background along with a couple of the word dies that came with it (Hi, and OMG). I cracked up because the bunny's expression matched the OMG, haha! 

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 tomorrow for Day 3 of Stamp Features!

Jaded Blossom September 2025 MINI FALL RELEASE!

Happy Thursday! It's time for our new Mini September Release over at Jaded Blossom! 

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

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

For my first card, I created a spooky scene using the various dies included in the new Halloween Embellishment Clusters and a little sentiment from Haunted Highway Stamp Set. I inked up white cardstock with Distress Oxide Ink (Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Prize Ribbon, Faded Jeans, and Black) . I used the Stitched Circle Dies with the Grunge Stencil to create a shaker moon. Inside the moon, I added the small sized bats from the Halloween Embellishment Clusters along with pink and green stars from Doodlebug Design Halloween Night Shakers and clear balls from Doodlebug Design Bitty Bubbles Shakers. I used all 3 sizes of the ghosts included in the die set.

  

The spooky house and tree border is from Halloween Scenic Dies. I cut a separate strip of black paper with deckle edge scissors, added some white ink to the deckle edge, and raise it on foam tape. Next, I added the large skulls and the medium and large bones from the Halloween Embellishment Clusters.

 

 

For my second card, I created a slimline shaker card using the new Fall Embellishment Clusters with the Stitched Circle Dies. The top circle has the leaves, the middle circle has the acorns and sunflowers, and the bottom one has the pumpkins. The sentiment is from the new Friendsgiving Stamp Set.

To create the acorn street lamp, I used the new Street Lamp Die: Fall Add Ons with the original Street Lamp Die (you need this die set for the street lamp post). The turkey is also from the Street Lamp Die: Fall Add Ons.  

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

And we have the Bundle at a Discount! Only $75.99. Regular Price $85.99 

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

The Greeting Farm January 2025 Stamp Feature Day 2: BOOK LOVER

Happy Friday friends! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the January 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 showcasing the new release. Don't forget you still have some time to participate in the BLOG HOP for a chance at winning all 3 sets!

When I saw this next set called BOOK LOVER, I knew I wanted to create a library scene with all the animals that looked like it could be out of a coloring book. I stamped the bookcase multiple times and fussy cut them to go along the back wall. I cut two of the bookcases smaller to create a little window seat. I also cut some of the books from the bookcase to go on the framed sign. 

This card was a lot of fun to put together. I didn't do a lot of shading. I just did single marker coloring which was quite relaxing. 

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. We will be back on Wednesday with Stamp Feature Day 3!

I used Trinity Stamps Room Builder Die Set Slimline to build the background scene. The decorative papers are from different paper pads in my stash. All 3 cheekies and the speech bubbles are raised on foam tape for extra dimension.

Happy Thursday friends! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the May 2024 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 to participate in the Blog Hop for a chance at winning all 3 new sets!

Today's set is called BIRTHDAY DOGS, and features the cutest puppies ready to paw-tay with love and licks! It comes with two different dog images, along with a couple accessory stamps, and 3 sentiments. I showcased the entire stamp set on this slimline card. I love how DT Elisabete cut the row of 4 dogs into 2 separate images to add alongside the dogs with the cake so I did the same. The puppy on the far right cracks me up! I added a bone to the dog's mouth next to him to justify the side stank eye, hahahaha!

The clouds were made using a stencil and Distress Oxide Ink. I cut pattern paper for grassy area. I raised the grass, presents, and puppy images on foam tape for extra dimension.

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!

Today, I created a slimline scene card featuring these playful puppies using this new stamp set called ALL WORK NO PLAY! I used digital paper from various paper packs to create the living room scene. All the images from the puppies to the torn paper to the stuffie, along with the sentiment came from the All Work No Play Stamp Set.

 

This scene just makes me smile! I had so much fun coloring up the puppies and accessory stamps. It's definitely a must-have for your stamp collection!

TLC Designs Shop: HAPPY FALL Y'ALL!

 Happy Sunday friends! I'm back today with a card featuring products from TLC Designs Shop. On the last Sunday of every month I'll be showcasing stamps/digis, along with the awesome dies carried in the store.

Today, I used this cute and adorable koala from a digi set called FESTIVE FRIENDS. Can you tell he's having the time of his life in that big pile of leaves?! 

 

 The leaves are part of the Festive Friends Digi Set. To create the paper layers for this happy fall card, I used the new Zinnia Slimline Dies. 

 

I added the sentiment and 3 falling leaves to MS Word and printed it on Copic Xpress It Blending Card. I then cut that panel out using the smaller landscape die. The koala and pile of leaves were printed separately, colored with Copics and then fussy cut. I glued the pile of leaves to the bottom of the card and placed the koala on an action wobble!! When you flick him, he wobbles like he's jumping.....SO FUN!!

 

COPICS:
Koala Ears: R01, R20, R21
Koala Nose: C3, C5, C8, C10
Koala Fur: N0, N2, N4
Koala Stomach and Tail: C1

Leaves: G46, R39,  YR09, YR23, Y15, E44
Sky: Blue China Distress Oxide Ink and Cloud Stencil

Jaded Blossom August 2021 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 4

 Happy Thursday everyone! Today is Day 4 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom AUGUST Release!  If you LOVE everything you have seen so far then you definitely want to purchase the Gotta Have it Now Package which will return to the Jaded Blossom Store on Friday. It's the best deal! 

Today, we are revealing a new stamp set called CLEAR JAR: COFFEE ADD ONS, along with the FREEBIE Stamp Set called Kawaii Coffee Breakfast Icons. For my project, I used the sugar packets from the Clear Jar: Coffee Add Ons to create a mini slimline card. I used the Slimline Dies to cut the shape. Then, I trimmed the length down to 6 inches, realigned the cut edge inside the die, and ran it through my cutting machine again to get the stitched edge on the cut side.

I stamped the sugar packets 3 times, fuzzy cut them out, colored them with Copics, and overlapped them to create a longer line of packets. Next, I used the Coffee Word Dies and cut the "a" once, and the word "mocha" 4 times. Then I cut the "h" from each word and glued the letters together to form "ahhhh". I used a marker to add the 3 dots and stamped "sugar" twice. Are you singing Sugar Sugar yet? LOL!

Jaded Blossom August 2021 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

Happy Monday everyone! Today is Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom AUGUST 2021 Release. I am so EXCITED about this release because it features all things COFFEE, including some of my favorite breakfast treats....donuts, muffins, and croissants! If you are like me and NEED it all, then you definitely want to purchase the "Gotta Have It Now" package for the BEST deal!

 Mini slimline cards seem to be popping up everywhere lately, and I haven't made one yet. When I saw the Kawaii Coffee Breakfast Stamps, I knew the breakfast sweets would fit great on a mini slimline! The sentiments from the Muffin Without You Stamps were also the perfect fit.

 

I used the narrow, stitched die from the Slimline Dies Set to create the panel. I first cut a regular size slimline panel and then measured 6 inches down, made a mark, and realigned the paper and die back together to cut just the top off so it was shorter. After coloring the doughnut, croissant, and muffin, I layered them on the card with foam tape.
