The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature: 3 WISHES


Happy Thursday everyone! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the MAY Release at The Greeting Farm, and today I'm featuring a set called 3 WISHES. This set features 5 characters, 1 monkey, 4 sentiments and several more accessories! It's an awesome set perfect for all sorts of occasions. When I saw it, I immediately thought of Aladdin! So here is my Aladdin inspired card. 

Copics:
BOY: 
Skin: E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Hat: RV02, RV04, RV06, RV09
Vest: V06, V15, V17
Belt: E25, E27, E29
Pants: C1, C3, C5, Colorless Blender
GIRL:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Shirt/Pants: BG10, BG13, BG15, BG18
Carpet: R24, R29, R59, B23, B26, B29
Gold Paint Pen
GENIE:
Skin: B32, B14, B16
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Sash: E13, E15, E18
Gold Paint Pen

So if you look at the stamp set you will see that I did some altering to create Aladdin and the Genie. I stamped the girl genie that is standing and used her bottom half for Aladdin. I just cut him at the waist and glued him to the top of the girl (after trimming off her head). To create the bald genie, I just wiped off the top part of the stamp before stamping so I could draw in a bald head. Then I used the hair from genie on the magic carpet to create his ponytail. 

The background was created using the following Distress Oxide Inks: 
Blueprint Sketch
Wilted Violet
Picked Raspberry
Ripe Persimmon
Dried Marigold
Scattered Straw


I had so much fun creating this card! Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all!

The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature: CHEEKY PROUD!


Happy Wednesday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the MAY Release at The Greeting Farm, and today I'm featuring a set called CHEEKY PROUD. I love the entire Cheeky line, and the fact that this one is a military gal just made me love them even more! My dad was in the Army so I made her an Army girl, but you could adjust the colors to represent various branches of the military. This time around I did some paper-piecing from an Army Digital Paper Pack I found on Etsy.

 Copics: 
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: E42, E47, E49
Shirt: E42, E43, E44
Belt: E42, E42, E44, C3, C5
Boots: C3, C5, C7, Black
Camo Hat/Pants: Paper-pieced

The background papers and hummer clip art are also from the same Army Digital Paper Pack. I created a speech bubble in word, printed it out and then stamped one of the sentiments from the Cheeky Proud set on to it. I fussy cut it out and raised the sentiment and Cheeky Proud 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!
 
Hugs,
Rosie

Instructions are HERE. This project includes all the new stamp sets including the FREEBIE, along with the Bitten Leaf Stencil and Honeycomb Card Mat Die. I had a lot of FUN with this one! The grassy panels were cut out using the grass die from the Mushroom Die Set.

 
The dragonfly is glued to a clear piece of plastic so it looks like he's flying. I used the Baby Bugs Freebie Set for the bugs around the sentiment.

I received a goodie box from Xyron which included the Mega Runner, X150 Sticker Maker, along with refills. This Xyron Bundle is an awesome deal, and....the items are sparkly blue! I LOVE them! The adhesive on the Mega Runner is AMAZING and really sticky! I used it to adhere the 2x2 squares to the frame. I ran the 1.25x2 rectangles through the sticker maker which makes adhering the decorative paper so much easier!

 

I added gorgeous flowers from I Am Roses to finish off the card. They really add a dramatic statement to any project! I used some gorgeous unicorn roses, along with cherry blossoms, small flowers, and tiny leaves. 


Remember, you have until JUNE 8th to link up your project. Be sure to use a minimum of 3 I Am Roses products on your card to qualify for a prize. I can't wait to see what you make!

Hugs,
Rosie
