It’s Farm Fresh Friday at TGF!

With April drawing to a close and May just around the corner, we’re celebrating all of the blooms and blossoms we’re hoping to see next month for this week’s Farm Fresh Friday at The Greeting Farm!

It has been a curious trip through Wonderland this month, and I hope you’ve scooped up our limited edition “Beans”! If not, there’s just a little time left before the portal closes on this release…once the stamps are sold out, they won’t be restocked!

Today, I’m sharing a card with “Queen Bean” and some more of the coffee filter roses I made for last week’s FFF:

Supplies: image stamp (Queen Bean” – The Greeting Farm), patterned papers (Echo Park), Spellbinders Labels 25 die, twine, sewing machine, foam tape, assorted Copic markers, Stickles, coffee filters.
Although I only received one lovely comment asking for the tutorial, I may find it in my “heart” to put something together in an upcoming post! 😉
Here’s what you’ll need to know to play along with this challenge:
  • You must use a TGF stamp (rubber, digi, or clear) as your main image.
  • Entries must be uploaded via InLinkz at the bottom of the challenge post on the TGF blog no later than Thursday, May 2nd at NOON CST.
  • You can add a direct link to your entry from your personal blog, SCS gallery, Flickr or TGF galleria. (If the InLinkz tool is missing, feel free to link your submission URL in the comment section!)
  • The fabulous prize: A random participant will be selected to win their choice of an in-stock SINGLE RUBBER STAMP or a 4×6 set!
Don’t forget, there’s still time to enter our Double Take Tuesday challenge (photo/color inspired) and our Retro-Fresh challenge (polka dots and/or plaid)! Check out each challenge post for all the details!

Hugs,

TGF Preview: Queen Bean!

Hi, everybody! I am having a crazy awesome time with the newest stamps at The Greeting Farm!

By now, you must know that our April release takes us to Wonderland, and I am pleased to present her royal highness, “Queen Bean,” in my post today!

All of the new stamps will be available in the TGF Store on April 1 (no fooling!), and we’ll be having a DT blog hop to celebrate! Make sure you mark your calendar to join us!

For my first preview card, I couldn’t resist making Queen Bean into a playing card! All it took was an alphabet stamp, a mini heart punch, and a corner rounder to transform her royal cuteness:

Other supplies: patterned paper (“Love Story” – Echo Park), rolled flower die, quilling strips/tool (Quilled Creations), sentiment stamp, assorted Copic markers, opaque white marker, Stickles, cardstock (Stampin’ UP), sewing machine, mini heart punch, letter stamp, gold gel pen.
For my second card, I broke out some vintage paper and paired Queen Bean with one of  TGF’s new “Delicate Words” dies (which will also be available in the TGF Store on April 1):
Other supplies: patterned paper (“Bittersweet” – Basic Grey), metal heart dies (Spellbinders), assorted Copic markers,  button, twine, heart charm (Prima), opaque white marker, gold gel pen, Stickles, foam tape.

So what do you think? Isn’t she adorable? My fellow DT members Rosemary, Anita, and Jessica have created some royally gorgeous creations to share with you today! Be sure to stop by The Greeting Farm blog to see all of today’s “Queen Bean” previews and to find out how you can WIN Queen Bean!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
