I used some dps from MME. The doily, ribbon, and pearls are from my stash. The cloud die is also from The Greeting Farm. I inked the edges of the cloud with blue ink and stamped the word SOAR from a Close to my Heart stamp set.

Now don't forget that Skyward Anya will be in the store on April 1st. Be sure to check out The Greeting Farm Blog to see Rachel's card using this same stamp. :)

The Greeting Farm SSSC Tress!

Happy Thursday everyone! Just one more day to go before we hit the weekend, WOOT, WOOT! I'm back today to showcase one of the stamps released as part of the Super Secret Stamp Club. What's the Super Secret Stamp Club (SSSC)? 

Super Secret Stamp Club is a 3-month online subscription where members receive a 3x4 special edition ‘mystery’ TGF stamp each month at an exclusive membership price of $8. PLUS members will get the stamp 1-5 months prior to it being released to general public at the exclusive edition retail price of $12. Secret stamp will ship the first week of each month (with the exception of international orders which will ship all 3 stamps at the end of the second month) during the period in which you've registered for. 

The stamp I'm showcasing today is called TRESS and she was the 2nd stamp released as part of the SSSC subscription. She will be released to everyone in The Greeting Farm STORE sometime in April at the retail price of $12. Although these stamps in the SSSC are a secret until you start receiving them in the mail, they are well worth the discounted SSSC price!! So when the next sign-ups are in the store you'll definitely want to be a part of it!! :)

Tress is stamped on X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copics. Isn't she gorgeous?!!

Reverse Confetti New Release Blog Hop!

 Hello Reverse Confetti friends! Winter may be trying to hold on for dear life, but with the hopes of spring right around the corner, there’s a fresh new release from REVERSE CONFETTI! There are 6 new stamp sets and 5 new Confetti Cuts Dies (some of which coordinate perfectly with a few of the stamp sets, too). Today, we’re hoping to put a “spring in your step” with our new release Blog Hop! The Confetti Crew, Challenge Crew and a few of our friends have sprung into action with some fabulous projects to share this month using the newest RC products. Hop along with us and catch “spring fever”!

The hop started over on the Reverse Confetti Blog, and you should have made it here from Laurie Schmidlin’s Blog. It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing. We have tons of inspiration for you to see using all the new Reverse Confetti stamp sets and dies! 

Today I'm showcasing BeBe Bunny...she's so adorable!! I love the sentiments that also come with this stamp set and the cute little glasses!! I stamped her on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with Copics.
