Hi friends! Welcome!  Today we are celebrating a long time favorite Stamp Company: The Greeting Farm.  We have carried their stamps in our store for many, many years and invite you to check out their fabulous designs – including the new STAMPtember celebration set “Mini Pony Party“.  Designed by The Greeting Farm for STAMPtember, these stamps are available while supplies last…and due to popular demand… there are dies too!  The dies will be shipping later this month, but you can order them now :)

Learn more about The Greeting Farm from the Founder, Marie:

We are a small little company located in colorful Colorado! The Greeting Farm offers high quality beautifully deep-etched red rubber stamps and occasional clear stamps for paper crafting and handmade goodies. We started in 2008 with just a few rubber images for fun. I remember discovering a crafter’s blog and she had linked SCS on there and well… it went into an upward spiral from there. I saw that people actually made stamps from their images and used them on cards. (I had not even heard of cardmaking until then, can you believe that?! I’m sorry you guys… I’m so ashamed.) At this time I was also doing a bunch of etsy stuff like badges, cupcake scarves, felt pins, postcards, just a bunch of random stuff to bring in rent. I figure, hey why not add another thing in?

With the help and support of wonderful crafters and creative minds, I’m so grateful to say that The Greeting Farm really is a place where we can cultivate smiles as well as make lifelong friends that share the same passion and the same drive to pass it along. Discovering papercrafting has opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me. And to have the opportunity to share and see others create with our images and express themselves, it’s just amazing. It truly is.

Thank you for celebrating The Greeting Farm with us today!  Stay tuned on our blog this week as we will be celebrating a new brand every day.  Coming up later this week, you will see Paper Smooches Feature (and sale!), Reverse Confetti Exclusive and on Saturday, we have some pretty incredible new Tim Holtz STAMPtember products for you!

It’s a ton of fun celebrating this special month with you and we love hearing your feedback. THANK YOU!!

Wendy made some super cute inspiration to get you inspired on how to create scenes with SugarPea Designs stamps! Enjoy!

I’m absolutely thrilled and honored to a part of Simon Says Stamps STAMPtember event!

For my card I played with the newly released, Fall Fox stamp set along with a few of my favorite, SugarCut dies. I started by selecting one of the patterned papers from Countryside Charm paper pad, which I then layered with SugarPuff Foam before adhering it to an olive green card base cut with the SugarCuts – Zig Zag Stitched Rectangles.

I stamped the fox along with the pumpkins and leaves using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored everything with Copic markers and die cut them using the coordinating SugarCuts – Fall Fox die set. I then cut a coffee cup using SugarCuts – Coffee To Go Cup and created a fun cup sleeve with the plaid patterned paper design from Countryside Charm. I stamped the sentiment onto the sleeve and the cup with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Finally, I adhered the leaves and fox to the card using foam tape to create a little depth and dimension.

Thanks for sharing a part of your day with me!
