Build a Onesie - girl

Sadly, I don't have a card or project to share today, but I wanted to let you know that today is another preview day over at The Greeting Farm! With the popularity of the Anya and Ian "wardrobe" sets a few years ago where you could build your own outfits, they decided to give the wee-ones a turn to be fashionable and introduce you to "BUILD A ONESIE: Girl!" This sweet set of cute couture will be available in CLEAR polymer when it's released on October 1st!

Be sure to visit the TGF BLOG today to see how you can WIN a set of your own today! Thanks again for stopping by and see you soon! In the meantime, be sure to check out the TGF BLOG every day to stay tuned into our week-long October preview week!

SLEIGHBELLS RING...are YOU listenin'?

Hello, Farm Friends! It's hard to believe that in a few short months, we'll be twirling into Thanksgiving, caroling into Christmas, and putting some HEART in the HOLIDAYS! While we don't want to rush any of the magical times ahead (and maybe not rush that cold weather, either!), we know that it takes time and energy to get a head start on those Holiday cards!

Today marks day one of a FIVE-day PREVIEW EVENT at The Greeting Farm and we are thrilled to bring you our first sneak peek at a new CLEAR stamp set, simply titled "CLEAR CHRISTMAS!" Before we get to previews, we have a SUPER special October Guest Designer to announce today! Please welcome the amazingly sweet and talented LORI CRAIG to our TGF family this month! Lori's blog, "Make a Difference" is inspiring and from the heart, you'll definitely want to visit and we are over the moon that she is joining us this month. WELCOME. LORI!

I've been wanting to make a shaker card for so long and thought the sleigh was the perfect image for a candy shaker card, made from recycled Wacky Tape packaging.


The minute I saw the Parcel Post image in this set I knew I was going to make a tag (or two)...


I was a bit nervous about using clear stamps in UTEE, but the stamps came out unscathed and still stamp perfectly, kudos to the quality of these clear stamps!

Well, does that get you in the spirit, even though it's a little early? We hope so! Don't forget to check out the TGF BLOG today for MORE samples from the entire DT and a chance to WIN this set before it's released! What's more? We have a HUGE announcement coming on SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1st during our RELEASE day post and you will NOT want to miss this one...promise! Not only do we have a new release coming, a new Challenge Team coming October 1st...we have ONE more exciting announcement and it might just be our best one YET!

Thanks for stopping by today...I'll definitely be back with more in the next couple of days!

A Spooktacular Spotlight

Hi all, I have to tell you, I LOVE living in the Midwest and thoroughly enjoy all four seasons (even if I do feel the winter season is 2 months too long) and in a couple of days it will officially be fall, which is my favorite season. We’ve already started to have cooler temps, and just this past weekend we saw hay bales and pumpkin fields cropping up on the country roads! It’s true, I’m definitely falling into the Halloween spirit and am getting the itch to start decorating...even though I know it’s waaaaaay too early...or is it?!!

Nah, it’s never too early, LOL! I’ve got a cute project I’d like to share with you today using the Spooktacular digi set which came out last year. I instantly fell in love with these little characters...and thought they’d make the cutest little ornaments/charms. A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E!!!



I had to think of what I was going to hang the ornaments from and after another ‘ah ha’ moment I pulled out my handy-dandy Cricut and used one of the Halloween cartridges to make this not-so-spooky tree to hang them from. Then I added a few sets of eyes...hoping for a spooky feel! Not too scary though, right?!!


Lastly, thanks for stopping by today! I want to give a BIG shout-out to all my followers for the positive comments over the past couple of months...they truly warm my heart!

TGF Boho Anya


Another quick Boho Anya card, and as much as I want to keep including peace signs and the word "groovy" I have to refrain...this girlie is stylin' and definately brings a new and updated version of chic to the runways...I just love her soft and flowing style!
Okay, okay...so I did add some peace signs to the card...I'm a throwback from the 70's, I just had to add them!! LOL!

I'm off for a little R&R this weekend with my hubby for a combination birthday/anniversary celebration...he turned 50 in May, and we just celebrated our 24th anniversary a couple of days ago. It's always nice to escape from everyday life once in a while!

Enjoy what comes your way, and thanks for stopping by!

A Summer Breeze

Thought I'd share just a little bit of my afternoon with you...

and how I love this time of year when it starts to get a little cooler outside and we finally get to open the windows after what seems like a couple of months of continuously having the air conditioning on. I could sit for hours, watching the curtains blowing in the wind...light and airy...floating and fluttering like butterflies!

I can only hope that your day was just as serendipitous!
