The Greeting Farm - Mermaid "Just because" card

Hi Hi! I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day, Nick and I pretty much ignored it, way too much stuff to plan for the wedding, to worry about Valentine's. We did go and see "Deadpool" at the cinema, on Saturday, and I got to craft! Here is one of the cards I created! 

I have been keeping an eye out, at The Reject Shop (a cheap variety store, locally) They have been getting some wonderful paper pads in, including a tropical one, so I grabbed it, and a gold, and pink one. I decided this The Greeting Farm stamp would go perfectly with these papers. I coloured up the Mermaid Anya, using a mix of Copic Markers, and Spectrum Noir Markers, and fussy cut her out. O used my big shot and circle dies to create the cuts, and stamped a really old sentiment on there, surrounding it with a trio of sequins. 

Here is the close up

The Greeting Farm - Shaped birthday card

Evening,

Just a quick share tonight, before I head to bed... 

For this card, I die cut a pennant shape, using the Silhouette *LOVE* and then grabbed some patterned papers, from a no name stack, and a Kaisercraft stack.I doodled around the edges, and added some lime green ribbon. The sentiment is made up of two different brands, Simon Says Stamp and PTI. The main image is a The Greeting Farm stamp, mixed with a Gorjuss stamp, and has been coloured using my Spectrum Noir Markers. I added more doodling, and finished off the card with some paper roses, and a resin daisy.

The Greeting Farm - Birthday Card

Hi guys! I have been sick, and overwhelmed with uni work recently, so haven't had a lot of chance to create anything... I did get a new toy to play with in the mail, on Monday... I got one of these, and it's amazing!

It's a Silhouette Cameo, it plugs into the PC and die cuts digital files, much like the Big Shot, and Cricut, without the need for 100's of dies or cartridges! 

Anyway, I've uploaded a few cards to my stores (Etsy + Madeit), so stop by to have a look, now on to my card today

For this card, I used some patterned papers, by Echo Park, Everyday Eclectic (an old collection) and the hot pink at the bottom is from Kaisercraft. I layered them together, and added some gold ribbon. The main image is from The Greeting Farm, and I've coloured her up using my Spectrum Noir markers. I added some paper roses, and sequins, before creating the sentiment, which is a mix of dymo labels, My Minds Eye stickers, The Alley Way Stamps and some hand writing.

I started this card by colouring up the stamp from The Greeting Farm, using my Spectrum Noir Markers. I added some doodling, using my white gel pen. I then grabbed some matching papers, from My Minds Eye and Stampin' Up! I added a polaroid frame and popped the little girl inside it. I added a sentiment, stamped on a sticker, and called this one done!

The Greeting Farm - Hello and Thank You cards

Hi guys! I got to craft on Sunday night, and sat and created two similar cards! These little gals will be in my etsy and Madeit stores hopefully tonight. So, keep an eye out.... Now, onto the cards!

I started out colouring up Hood here, but chose a purple cape, instead of the usual red. I then grabbed some papers, from American Crafts and layered them up with some Perfect Plum card stock, which I'd run through the big shot, using my Hexagon Embossing plate. I added some ribbon, and a trio of flowers. The sentiment on this one is My Favourite Things. 

The second card I made, with the leftover paper from the first one, I stamped and coloured Beauty using my Spectrum Noir Markers, then using a stamp from Simon Says Stamp, stamped the sentiment. All the details on this one are the same as the one above...  

Here are the close ups -

Belated Easter Cards

Hi guys! I've been on prac this last week, and I must say I'm absolutely loving it! I haven't had much time to craft though... Last night though, I had a friend over, who asked for two belated Easter cards... So, I sat and created!  

This one, I used a Greeting Farm stamp, coloured with my spectrum Noir Markers, and patterned papers from Carte Bella, Echo Park and Kaisercraft. I used paper flowers from D-Lish Scraps and the sentiment is from Stampin' Up!

I used the sketch from Mojo Monday for this card.

This second card, I printed a digital image, From the Heart Stamps, and coloured it up with my spectrum noir markers as well. I used patterned papers from an unknown company (no brand), and doodled around the edges. I wanted to keep this one fairly clean and simple, with nothing that an almost one year old could pull off, and stick in her mouth... 

I used the sketch from I {heart} card sketches for this one

The Greeting Farm & Bugaboo Stamps Birthday Cards

Hi guys! I've been popping things in, and changing things up, in both my madeit and etsy stores, so pop over for a look!

Last night, I was up late, creating a couple of birthday cards... One just for fun, the other because a friend is celebrating their 29th birthday today, and I procrastinated creating ;)

Here is the first one - 

I had to play with my all new patterned papers, from Kaisercraft (OMG, this is an amazing collection!) I grabbed the woodgrain paper, and the giant flower one, and the other paper is Carte Bella. I layered them up, and then decided on the stamp I wanted to use, which is from The Greeting Farm and coloured her up using my Spectrum Noir Markers. I popped her into one of the polaroid frames, from Kaisercraft, and stamped the sentiments, which are a mix of Some Odd Girl and My Favourite Things. I added a bunch of paper and resin flowers. Here is the close up

This one is being entered into -

Now, on to the second birthday card, it's a lot different ;)

I printed out the digital stamp, from Bugaboo Stamps, and coloured it up using my Spectrum Noir Markers, mounted it on some blue paper from Echo Park, which I'd printed the sentiment straight onto. 

I added a few rhinestones, and some doodling, and called this card done!

Anyway, onto this card - 

For this card, I used one of the Princess Anyas, stamped her, and coloured her up with my Spectrum Noirs. I used patterned paper from My Minds Eye (I think) and paired it with a non branded ombre pink paper. I doodled around the edges. Attached some pink ribbon loops and a trio of sequins.

Here is the close up. I added stickles to her wand and crown

The Greeting Farm - Rockabilly Pin-Up, You're Beautiful!

Hi again!

I did mention I'd gotten crafty the other night! I actually made two cards! This one, will be up in my madeit and etsy stores, soon! 

 

I started off with picking out my papers for this one, knowing I wanted to use this totally adorable The Greeting Farm stamp, Flirty Anya, has been in my stamp collection a little while, but she hadn't been trimmed, or inked up! I am as surprised as you! 

Anyway, the patterned papers are from My Minds Eye, their Christmas Chalkboard collection, and I've doodled around the edges, to look like stitching, using a white gel pen (as I can't find any of the bobbins for my sewing machine), I then coloured up Anya, using my Spectrum Noir Markers, and fussy cut her out. The sentiment is made up of a die-cut from Teresa Collins, and my Kaisercraft Alphabet stamps, which I kind of wish I'd stamped going the other way! The embellishments are two buttons, one in black the other a silver diamante one, a cherry blossom flower as well as a red rose, from D-Lish Scraps

The Greeting Farm - Another Easter Card

I told you I'd be back, with another Easter Card ;)

So, today is the third in the collection for my very special Facebook customer!

For this one, I started by picking out some papers from Kaisercraft, I actually shuffled papers around a while for this one, as I was getting to the point of uninspired, before going to bed! I settled on a bright pink and yellow theme for this one, as I had some perfectly matching ribbon from Stampin' Up! in my stash! 

I coloured my Easter Anya, using my Spectrum Noir markers, and then layered everything up, (with the regular doodling) I popped Anya up using dimensional adhesive, popped my printed sentiment on top of the ribbon and added some paper and resin flowers.

The Greeting Farm - Easter Card

Hi Again!

I have another Easter card to share with you today!

I did this card backwards to how I usually do my cards, I selected the papers I wanted to use first. I used patterned paper from American Crafts, and Amy Tangerine. I trimmed them all out, doodled around the edges, and then coloured up my The Greeting Farm image, using my Spectrum Noir Markers.

I printed the sentiment from my computer, and die cut it out, before popping it up with dimensional adhesive.

I added a couple of flat back pearls and called this card done.

Dad's Birthday Card!

Hiya! I'm slowly getting back into crafting! I've had a chance to play, after working on all my uni readings today! But, this card, I created yesterday...

For this one, I started by stamping, and colouring up the dad image from New Parents (The Greeting Farm), and then setting him aside. I chose patterned papers from Echo Park and Teresa Collins, and layered them up with black card stock. I then stamped the sentiment, which is a mix of two My Favourite Things sets. I added four black rhinestones, as well as a metal cog, to match the paper and called this card done!

The Greeting Farm - Just because I care

Hi guys, I had a massive surge of inspiration last night (woohoo!) which meant I got two cards made for my stores (links in sidebar)

This is the first of my two cards

For this one, I dug out one of my favourite Anyas - Cuddle Anya, coloured her up with my Spectrum Noir Markers, and cut her out. I used patterned papers from My Minds Eye and a no-name paper pad I bought at a discount store! I doodled around the edges, and mounted it to a grey card base. The sentiment is from Stampin' Up. I added some pearls, which I coloured with my Spectrum Marker to match
