Club La-La Land Crafts January Kit Inspiration

 Hi everyone, welcome back! Today's projects are using the January 2020 Kit from 

Club La-La Land Crafts!

  The first card features Queen of Hearts Marci, paired with the sentiment "why be a Princess when you can be a Queen".


I recently watched a Copic tutorial on textured hair by Sandy Allnock and I am addicted. I think she turned out beautiful. The bottom of her dress, I wanted to create billowy fabric and I used the large and small heart from the Play Card Die. I have the playing card tucked in a bush created with the Clouds Border Die. Lastly I added the Queen chess piece from Chess King and Queen Die, as well as the flamingo from Standing Flamingo Die.

My second card was created with the Playing Card Dies and the sentiment "life is like a GAME of CARDS". 


I created a poker hand and tried to represent all the card faces. Even though the stamp set only has the Ace of Spades and Hearts images, I was able to color the Clover and Diamond with Copic markers. Only a part of the card image is showing, so I was able to achieve this.

January 2021 New Release Blog Hop

The JANUARY 2021 RELEASE is now available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store! First up, we introduced you to MISS ANYA FANNY PACK with 3 different big Anyas carrying fashionable critter fanny packs. Next, we have CAFFEINE CRITTERS... a set featuring 5 coffee loving critters. Our 3rd set called DREAMS DO COME TRUE has Anya and Ian living happily ever after in their castle with a pet frog and unicorn! And finally, we have a brand new stand alone MAGIC CASTLE DIE.


My card features MISS ANYA FANNY PACK and CAFFEINE CRITTERS. I am in love with the critter fanny packs! What better combo than to pair her up with the cute critter. I made a CAS card with a woodgrain designer paper at the base of the card. 


All the images are colored with Copic markers as well as the wall in the background. I added some elements from the Caffeine Critters stamp set like the coffee cup and the plate of donuts, as well as the sentiment. The little side table is a digital image from Movie Night.

Kat Scrappiness January Release

 Hi everyone!  Today I showcase products from the Kat Scrappiness January Release. 


The featured stamp set is Valentines Quokkas. They made an appearance last year and they are back! These cuties are colored with Copic markers. I paired them up with the brand new Mini Slimline Dies:

Stitched Scalloped Mini Slimline Dies
Double Stitched Mini Slimline Dies

Slimline cards are all the rage and as well as Mini Slimline cards. The shaker bits inside the card are This Kiss Sprinkles, Happy Mail Sprinkles and Love Hearts Sprinkles.


My second card here again is using the Valentines Quokkas and more Mini Slimline Dies:

Double Stitched Mini Slimline Dies
Embossed Edge Mini Slimline Dies


How cute are these Conversation Hearts Sprinkles! Perfect for this Valentines theme. I also used other products from Kat Scrappiness, such as the Wonky Wavy Stitched Heart Dies and the Stitched Scalloped Heart Dies.

The Greeting Farm - January 2021 Release Preview Day 4

  Welcome to The Greeting Farm January 2021 Release Preview Day 4!


The wonderful MAGIC CASTLE DIE! You can watch a tutorial on how you assemble this die over on The Greeting Farm YouTube Channel here. There are so many color combo possibilities with this die. I chose to go for a Disney themed color palette.


I used red and gold glitter cardstock for accent pieces. I colored the white cardstock pieces with Copic markers. This die cut is accompanied with Disney themed pattern paper already in my craft stash. 


The sentiment "Dreams Do Come True" is from the newest release stamp set Dreams Do Come True. I hope you've enjoyed all Preview Days from the Design Team.

The Greeting Farm - January 2021 Release Preview Day 3

 Welcome to The Greeting Farm January 2021 Release Preview Day 3!

This set is called Dreams Do Come True. I made a shaker card using circle dies and filled it up with stars and heart sequins. Also, I used star dies to coordinate with the designer paper. I used all the images but one, a unicorn.

I fussy cut the images and made a little scene at the bottom of the shaker window. The sentiment "Happily Ever After" is included in the stamp set. I used Copic markers to color the images and Stickles glitter glue to add some sparkle.


Hope you are enjoying the previews so far.  Stay tuned for the last day of previews tomorrow.

Say hello to MISS ANYA FANNY PACK. Aren't they the cutest and coolest gals?! Each girl has their own fanny pack depicting different critters. I can so relate, more so now, with the fanny pack. It holds all the essentials: hand sanitizer, face mask, wallet and chapstick.


Which one is your favorite, the bunny, the fox or the bear? I can't decide. All images are colored with Copic markers. The sentiment "friends forever" are from the stamp set. I used alpha stickers to spell out "FANNY".

The Greeting Farm - You're My Everything


Hello everyone! Here is a cute lovey card using the #CoupleGoals Stamp Set. I love how small these images are. My little scene is composed of three out of the five couple images.


I layered the images on hillside die cuts that I adhered with foam dimensional tape. The scene is framed out with a stitched scalloped frame. All the designer papers are from Doodlebug So Punny.


All the images are colored with Copic markers. Lastly, I placed a small heart die cut on the bottom left corner. Thank you for stopping by!
