...More Love For The Greeting Farm

I have been playing with some of my new stamps from The Greeting Farm, and I must say that I love them all! I love them so much that I ordered four more sets today! LOL! I keep coming back to this precious turtle and bunny stamp from the "Down By The Pond" set...it is just too cute for words! I started with a Regal Rose Cardstock base, then matted the additional layers with Chocolate Chip Cardstock. I also used more Regal Rose Cardstock for the middle panel, then punched the chocolate mat with the Martha Stewart Edger Punch {though I am NOT sure which one it is....oops!}. The patterned paper was from the Old Olive Designer Series Paper pack, and was pierced with a Mat Pack and Paper Piercer. The Watercolor Paper focal panel was stamped with Chocolate Chip Craft Ink, embossed with Clear Embossing Powder, then colored using an Aquapainter and Classic Ink Pads. The only embellishments that were added include a piece of 5/8" Regal Rose Grosgrain Ribbon, a Baja Breeze Button from the Button Bouquet collection, and some Linen Thread. So what do you think of the end product?

That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by today to see me, and I will be back here tomorrow with another creation. Have a wonderful Tuesday! Until later...
