What is a The TGF Premiere Farmer? It's a small group of designers that have been hand selected by Jess and Marie of The Greeting Farm to bring to you a broader spectrum of samples and ideas than you've ever seen before during preview week!! And they picked me....ME!!!! OMGosh, if you guys only knew how crazy excited I have been and how hard this has been to keep to myself....I've been about to bust!! :) I'm so tickled to have been selected to be a part of this amazing team of ladies!! :)
I was very excited to get started with one of newest stamp sets...Miss Anya Garland. And today I'm going to share with you two projects from this adorable stamp set.
I decided to keep the card design simple so that Miss Anya with her sweet little hearts on a string could take center stage. I didn't even reach for any designer papers...just embossed some kraft cardstock, a scalloped square, and some luscious 3/4" V Striped Red Twill from the Ribbon Carousel.
For my next project, I created a Valentines treat box (which holds 3-4 Ghiradelli chocolates) with Miss Anya holding a banner.
I so enjoyed creating something for Valentines and taking a little break from all the Christmas projects!! Not to mention I've been dying to play with my newest paper pad from My Mind's Eye (Love Me) ever since I got it. :) Star Dust Stickles was added to the hem of Miss Anya dress and I popped the image up with foam tape for dimension. And once again, I used some gorgeous 5/8" Fushia Satin Scalloped ribbon from the Ribbon Carousel and tied a tiny little bow using my Bow Easy.
Making this treat box is so VERY simple. For the base I used the largest Spellbinders Classic Hearts & Scalloped Hearts dies. Next, to create the box you simply cut a 4" x 4" square and a 4 1/8" x 4 1/8" square for the lid. Score both squares at one inch on all sides. Fold on your score lines, cut your slits and adhere with Scor-Tape or other strong adhesive. Creating the entire box, honestly only took me five minutes!! I plan to make more to give to the kids for Valentines!! xoxo :)
I truly ADORED coloring these sweet Miss Anya Garland images and I hope you will stop by again on Dec 27th so I can share MORE projects from this newest The Greeting Farm release!!
Thank you so much for stopping by today.
I send you all my love and hope that you and your families will have a VERY Merry Christmas!!! xoxo
