Jaded Blossom February 2023 New Release BLOG HOP!

 Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome to Jaded Blossom's February 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 created an Octagon Treat Box with a St. Patrick's Day Clover theme. I included several of the new products on this treat box.....Clovers For Sale Stamp Set, Build A Booth: Clover Add Ons, and Gnome Dies: Pot Of Gold Add Ons.


To create the gnome I used the Gnomes Dies with the Gnome Dies: St Patricks Day Add Ons for the hat. The large coin that he is holding is from the new Pot Of Gold Add Ons. I added a bunch of coins sticking out of the Octagon Box, along with coins along the bottom for him to sit on. 
 

Here is a closeup of the gnome. I get a lot of questions on how I create his face so I'll be doing a tutorial for that on the Jaded Blossom Blog soon.

The Greeting Farm February 2023 Stamp Feature Day 1: ANYA IN ENGLAND

 Happy Thursday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the February 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. Don't forget about the TGF Blog Hop where 1 lucky person will take home all 3 stamp sets!

Anya is back to traveling! This month she's in England and doing some sightseeing in London. I decided to create a large Polaroid card with the ANYA IN ENGLAND set. Do you know you can create a Polaroid any size you need? I took a fairly large square die and cut a square out of white cardstock. I then trimmed up the sides to look like a Polaroid. If you don't have a square die, you can also use your paper trimmer to cut a square shape, trace onto your cardstock, and use a craft knife to cut out the square. 

 
I stamped Anya and Big Ben on Xpress It Blending Card. I colored them with Copics and fussy cut them out. Next I cut a square piece of blending card large enough to fit behind the square opening. I colored in a road and green shrubs and added the sky. I used my craft knife to cut the top of part of the shrubs so I could slide the clock behind the shrubs. I then placed Anya on the gravel road. I glued the Polaroid frame onto of my colored panel, and added the sentiment and accessory stamps.

 
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!

Hugs,
Rosie

 Today, I created a lovey-dovey card using the cutest, most adorable bees from Conie Fong's Bee With Heart Bundle. They just make me smile!
 

I used some digital bee paper that I got off Etsy called BEE MINE. The heart gingham paper is from Pebbles My Funny Valentine 6x6 Paper Pad. The ribbon is from my stash. I used a sentiment from Jaded Blossom and altered it by adding the extra "e" to make it say Bee Mine. 
 
 
To step it up a notch, I added gorgeous IAR flowers in the corner. The large flower is R-43 Unicorn Peonies. I love to use the R-43 flowers as my focal point. I then surrounded it with white cherry blossoms, some smaller yellow and pink flowers, and mini green/pink leaves.

Jaded Blossom: Happy Birthday To Moo!

 Happy Friday everyone! I'm back today with my latest project for Jaded Blossom. I had a cute cow mug and some cow caramels so I put them together with my Jaded Blossom stamps and dies to create this Moo-velous birthday gift. I used the Treat Tag Die with the small cow from Out On The Farm Stamp Set, along with some digital cow paper to create a coordinating tag.


While I was at it, I decided to create a mini card to go with the set. I cut my card base at 4.25 x 4.25. The larger cow and the sentiment are from the Cow Patties Stamp Set.


I love that there is a small cow from Out On The Farm and a larger cow from Cow Patties that coordinate with each other! It made putting this Cow Birthday gift together easy-peasy.


Remember, Jaded Blossom has a current MONOCHROMATIC Challenge. You have until March 4th to play along for a chance to win a free stamp set! 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. 

Hugs, 
Rosie

Jaded Blossom February 2023 Challenge: MONOCHROMATIC!

 Happy Sunday friends! It's the first Sunday of the month and that means we have a brand new challenge at Jaded Blossom.

 Our next challenge is ...

MONOCHROMATIC!
(must use at least 1 JB product)

Challenge Guidelines: 
1) Project must be new for this challenge, no back-linking
2) Project must have a Jaded Blossom stamp or die somewhere on it. 
3) Only one entry per person
4) Link it up on the Jaded Blossom Blog by Saturday, 03/04/2023
 
*************************

For my project today, I used the Treat Tag Die with the Pig Out Stamp Set to create a pink tag to go with this cute pig mug with piggy gummies. I found the gummies on Amazon.


To create the tag, I cut all the pieces from white Bristol Smooth Cardstock. I then added Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink to the various pieces of cardstock so all the layers coordinated. I even splattered some of the ink on the white tag area.
 
 
I put the mug inside a clear Gusset Bag and then tied the tag to the outside with pink/white twine.

This month's prize for a randomly selected winner is:
