Birthday Girl Anya ~ Preview Day 3 ~ The Greeting Farm

 Hello there crafty friend!

It's the final day of previews at The Greeting Farm for the August release! Today we're introducing BIRTHDAY GIRL ANYA... today's super sweet stamp set includes the adorable Anya with a cute kitty and a cake and some other cute accessory stamps! All so fun!

I stamped Anya, the cake, the table, and kitty with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with Copic markers. Fussy cut each of them on the line and then colored the edges with a Memento Tuxedo Black marker making the edges nice and neat.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E11

Freckles: E33

Hair: Y21, E33, E35

Hair Accessories: YG21, YG11, RV10, RV02, RV14, YR20, YR15, B000, B00

Dress: B000, B00, RV10, RV02

Kitty: C0, C2, R00, R20

Gift Bag: B000, B00

Cake: YG21, YG11, YG03, YR20, YR15, RV10, RV02, RV14

Table Cloth: RV10, RV02

Table: C0, C2

I paired up Anya with some old papers from Stampin' Up that's been in my stash for quite awhile. I think the party theme of the papers really worked nicely with these stamps. I die cut the background layer with the largest die from the Postage Stamp {nesting dies} and the garland paper was die cut using a die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies}, both from Unity.

I stamped and trimmed the sentiment and adhered it directly to the card. I popped up the kitty with foam tape. And then I finished off the card with three rhinestones from the Frosty Rhinestones from Gina Marie Designs.

The release goes live in the store tomorrow the 15th at 12am EST! Woohoo! Be sure to come back tomorrow for the release Blog Hop!! One lucky winner will receive a $50 gift card to The Greeting Farm. All you have to do is comment on the hop! Yay!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I am having so much fun with the sketch this month! I hope that you've been able to play along with us and if you haven't there's still this week and next week to join in the fun!

I made a cute birthday card this time using the adorable Newton Loves Cake Stamp Set. I die cut the cute kitty and hat using coordinating dies from the Newton Loves Cake Die Set. 

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

Kitty: C0, C2, C3, R00, R20

Hat: V000, V12, V15, BG10, BG01, BG34, Y11, Y15, RV10, RV02, RV04

Candle: RV10, RV02, RV04, Y11, Y15

Plate: BG10, BG01, BG34

I paired up the cute kitty with the Birthday Meows 6x6 Paper Pad. I used the papers for all of my layers. The kitty background paper measures 4-1/4 x 5-1/2"; and the striped paper measures 4-1/4 x 1". I die cut the sprinkles papers using a die from the Frames & Flags Die Set. And the cute circle behind the kitty is die cut using a circle die from the Circle Frames Die Set. I popped up the circle and the trimmed sentiment using foam tape.

Now it's your turn to get your paws inky with your Newton's Nook Designs products and create a card using this month's sketch. Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge! Can't wait to see your projects!

Unity Stamp Company ~ Happy Birthday to You

Hello crafty peeps!

 I made this sweet card to celebrate Unity Stamp Company's birthday!!

This sweet stamp is on sale right now!! ---> Happy Birthday to You

I had fun playing with a bunch of different layers of paper using a paper pad that I actually received a long time ago. It's hard to believe but this paper hoarder is enjoying using up her papers! LOL

I used the following Copic markers for this card ~ R01, R11, R21, R85, 

YR00, BG53, BG72, B00, YG91, N2

This was a pretty simple design with all of the layers adhered to the white card base. I did pop up the larger polka dot paper layer. A few enamel dots finished this cute card off!
