The Greeting Farm GVT (Summer-Vibe Inspiration Photo)

Hey Crafters! Here's a quick share of my entry for TGF Garden Variety Tuesday of which the color scheme was taken from a Summer-Vibe Inspiration Photo from Pinterest.

I find that color combination challenges are a little bit hard for me to do. I always tend to go straight to my blues and yellows when I make my projects. However, trying new things is always fun and really challenges your creative thinking.


Here's Hula Anya in a summery birthday card...

Greeting Farm - Hula Anya

Materials used:
* TGF - Hula Anya (stamp image)
* TGF - Happy Chef (cupcake, present, birthday cake and flower stamp images)

The Greeting Farm FFF Challenge (Anything Goes!)

Hey Crafters! Hope everybody had a wonderful Monday (even though I am sure that we all miss our weekends already). Today, I am here to share my entry for TGF Farm Fresh Friday Challenge which has the theme of "Anything Goes".

This challenge theme is more fun for me because it gives you NO LIMITS to your creativity. 

However, I do also enjoy more structured theme challenges for having the chance to try other techniques, sketches and materials that I usually do not use with my own projects. 

For my entry, I used my most favorite couple stamp from The Greeting Farm called the Amazing Duo. I was ecstatic when I found this because the superhero Ian included in the stamp set looks like Superman (of whom my boyfriend is a fan of).

Greeting Farm - Amazing Duo

I know that superheroes have their own unique superpowers...but for my boyfriend and I...I do believe that we have the Power of Love. Even though we are miles apart.....countries apart right now...he has always been there for me through my ups and downs. I made this altered project especially for him. As a token of my love and appreciation for him. The letters A & K inside the silver star represents the initials of our names :)

Materials used:
* TGF - Amazing Duo (stamp image)
* Michaels - wooden star (base)
* Creative Imaginations - starry background paper
* Dovecrafts - paper lace heart (doily)
* Cricut - Birthday Bash (cartridge used for font to spell "Power of Love")
* Crayola Pencils (to color image)
* Baby Oil (to color image)
* Loew Cornell (to color image)
* Tsukineko - memento "tuxedo black"
* Michaels - red cardstock (letter die cuts)
* Michaels - yellow cardstock (circles for border)
* DCWV - silver star chipboard 
* Letters "A" & "K" from my crafty stash

Thanks for stopping by! May you all have a good day!

Stay creative! Stay inspired!

The Greeting Farm FFF Challenge (Mix It Up)

Hey Crafters! I am here to share my entry to TGF Farm Fresh Friday Challenge which has a theme of mixing it up! So here's a double chance for me to use my Greeting Farm stamps...YEY!

However, I ended up using 4 Greeting Farm stamps in this Clean and Simple card I made. Four stamps means quadruple the fun, right???!!! 

P.S. I felt like the crafty version of Dr. Frankenstein when I made this card. Having to temporarily cut the cute heads and bodies of these TGF stamps to make new characters out of them :)

Greeting Farm - WS Edward & Gracie, My Guy Ian and Miss Anya Lounge

I used the following stamps...
* TGF - Wild Sprouts Edward (stamp image)
* TGF - Wild Sprouts Gracie (stamp image)
* TGF - My Guy Ian (stamp image)
* TGF - Miss Anya Lounge (stamp image)

additional materials used...
* K & Company - ... (background paper)
* Dovecrafts - paper lace heart (doily)
* Me & My Big Ideas - "totally love" (sentiment)
* Walmart - white card base
* Ranger - distress ink "tattered rose"
* Tsukineko - memento "tuxedo black"

I did not want to waste any of the images that I stamped so this is what I came up with...a mini tag!

Greeting Farm - WS Edward & Gracie, My Guy Ian and Miss Anya Lounge

Here they are together...

Thanks for stopping by! May you all have a good day!

Stay creative! Stay inspired!
