Greeting Farm "Farm Fresh Friday" Challenge

I love the Greeting Farm stamps and they have very fun challenges on their blog.  This Friday's challenge is the Great Outdoors.  I chose to use the Sitting Lovely stamp set.  I stamped the bench using Versamark ink and then embossed it with silver embossing powder.  I colored the girl with my Copic markers and paper pieced her boots and clothes with the Echo Park "Beautiful Life" patterned paper.  I used some Stickles on her hair barettes and popped her up on the bench using foam tape.

I used a piece of pink cardstock in the A2 size.  I cut a strip of grass using my Grassy Edges My Favorite Thing die and placed it underneath the bench.  I stamped out the flowers from the Sitting Lovely stamp set and then used my Broken China distress stickles to color them in.  I used the My Favorite Things postage Stamp Stax die to cut out a piece of the Echo Park "Beautiful Life" patterned paper and then stamped the sentiment from the stamp set.  Thanks for looking.

I chose to make two cards using the Rag Doll Sweetheart images.  You can find these adorable digital images here. The first card is a 5 X 7 white cardstock base.  I placed a striped patterned paper from the Beautiful Life Echo Park patterned paper pad.  I used a piece of the grey patterned paper along with one of the dies from the Floral Ribbon Threader Spellbinder set.   I also cut out the pink polka dot patterned paper with the border from the Floral Ribbon Threader spellbinder set and adhered it to the bottom of the card.  I placed a strip of lace underneath the scalloped rectangle and on top of the border piece.  I used the Textile Rectangle stamp and die set from My Favorite Things to make my sentiment.   I used a Studio Calico Mister Huey mist to spray some cardstock and then I die cut the Textile Rectangle die and then stamped the frame and sentiment.  I glued it to the top of the scalloped rectangle piece.  I put the Rag Doll Sweetheart with boots image on my card with foam tape to give it some dimension.  I colored this image in with my Copic markers.   I added some beautiful flowers that I received in a RAK to the bottom right hand corner of my card.

The second card I created is a standard A2 size pink cardstock.  I added patterned paper from the Beautiful Life Echo Park paper pad.  I added a one inch strip of the damask paper from that same collection.  I also added a small 1/2 inch strip to the left hand side of the card.  I used my Label stax die from My Favorite Things to cut out a red piece of patterned paper from that same collection.  I colored the Rag Doll Sweetheart Bag digital image with my Copics and placed on my card using foam tape to give it some dimension.  Thanks for looking.

I was in a swap where I was to make four 3 X 3 cards and envelopes.  It is so very nice when using digital images that you can resize them to any size that you need.   I used Ms. Lilly on a bike and Ms. Lily Pretty Lady for these cards.    I chose to use a kraft cardstock bases and the patterned paper I chose was Echo Park's "A Beautiful Life".

Today is Daisy Collins, birthday and she is the owner and creator of digital printables files for Tsunami Rose Designs.  I have created projects and been a part of her design team.  This is the birthday card I created using some of her wonderful printables called "Vintage girls and Lifes a bloom"  The "Life's a bloom" is a journal.  I like using the journal pages as beautiful patterned paper.

I took a plain 5 X 7 white cardstock base and I first inked around all the edges with Tim Holtz frayed burlap ink.   I added a piece of patterned paper from the BrambleRose My Minds Eye paper stack. I then used one of the adorable postcard images from the Vintage Girls printable from Tsunami Rose Designs store along with a piece of printed paper from the "Life's a bloom" journal page.  I cut a wonderful doily that I got in a RAK from a friend who bought it at Thepaperbaglady's shop on Etsy.  I also added another small doily in the bottom right hand corner of the card along with a beautiful crochet flower that my aunt Bev sent me.  I also added another one of those same flowers on the top of the card.   I used the reverse side of the BrambleRose patterned paper and my Fiskars scalloped border punch and then I tucked one piece in the top by the doilies and another along the right hand side of the card.

I took 2 beautiful paper flowers and one porcelain rose from Craftsupplies1 on Etsy and wrapped them together then I put some lace around the stems as well..   I then adhered them to the bottom left hand corner of the card.   I took a sentiment stamp from SP&Company from their Bold Birthday Greetings stamp set and stamped it on my card using Rich Cocoa Memento ink.  Thanks for looking and joining in the hop.

A challenge card

I love the trims that you can find at The Piece by Piece on Etsy.  I follow their channel on Youtube and found out that they were holding a contest giveaway on their Facebook page.  They also have a store located in Fremont California.  I decided to make a card with some of the great goodies that I had bought from their Etsy shop.

I started with a 5 X 7 white cardstock base and then I added a piece of Bramble Rose patterned paper from My Minds Eye.  I used some white lace that I inked with Tea Dye Distress ink to the top of the patterned paper.  I also added a beautiful piece of vintage trim that I received in a RAK from a fellow Youtuber.   I used the gorgeous pleated satin box trim from Beverly's store to make a handmade flower and then I used the tear drop pearl trim to make a flower center.  I tucked in some beautiful wheat sprays and part of a gorgeous rosette flower that The Piece by Piece sells as well.  I added a couple different types of lace to the bottom of the card that were given to me in a birthday RAK package as well.  

I took my Postage stamp Stax die from My Favorite Things and cut out another piece of the Bramble Rose patterned paper from My Minds Eye.  I inked around the edges with the Tea Dye distress ink and then stamped the sentiment from the Greeting Farm Blush Bonnie stamp set.  I then added Sticko glitter circle stickers to each of the corners.  Thanks for looking.
