Party like a Monster!

Image: Tyler from the Creepin Kit (The Greeting Farm)
Sentiment: Monster Kisses set from Crafty Sprouts 

Hello Out There! I'm here to share a card in honor of my time with The Greeting Farm. I'm sad to say that my month as a Guest Farmer has come to an end. Wahhhhh!! Lol. I wanted to say a HUGE Thank You to Jess, Marie and the Farmers for welcoming me to their family. I truly enjoyed my time on the Farm and I Partied Like a Monster while I was there. :) They have some awesome stuff coming up so make sure you pay them a visit when previews begin, you won't want to miss it!

Im playing with Anyone for Anya - Masculine Time.   

Im a linking up this card as my Best Project of the Week (Part 3) for Kristy's linky party. It was difficult to choose from the 3 cards I created this week but I went with this one because it's a CAS boy card that isnt so simple. I think that any teenage boy can appreciate this card because of the distressing, the guitar and the kick ass green hair. I have to say his hair is what sold me. Lol!

Are you Ready to Rock this Sketch?


Happy Friday! Welcome back to DT Friday were we like to remind you of the current challenge happening at Crafty Sprouts. The current challenge is to use the Sketch found HERE (you can also find the link to link up). As you can see I flipped the sketch. So don't feel like you have to use all of the elements. You are free to rotate but please make sure that the sketch is visible. So make sure you link up by the 29th, plus the winners prize is pretty damn awesome! It is sponsored by The Greeting Farm

My image is Jack from the Creepin Kit (The Greeting Farm).
My sentiment comes from the Are You Ready to Rock set. I just love this set because it works great for those boy cards that need to be made :) but also works great with the little rocketes in your life/family. 

I will be playing with Anyone for Anya - Masculine Time. Simon Says Stamp - Punches and Dies. Card Cupids Blog - Anything Goes. Anything Goes - Anything Goes. Southern Girls Challenge - Anything Goes.
Thanks for stopping by/commenting.

It's all about Crafty Sprouts and The Greeting Farm


Hi All. Welcome to the Crafty Sprouts Blog Hop. Today is a special double whammy day because it is release day for the 3 awesome sets Erika has created for you as well as it being Challenge day. This weeks challenge is a sketch challenge (Sketch found Here) and it is sponsored by the awesome Greeting Farm.

You should be hopping over from ZENI

I was in charge of featuring the Halloween Set "Totally Witching" which by the way, I totally love that title because replace the W with a B and you get something else. Lol!! But since I find all of Erika's stamp sets awesome I couldn't stop there. So I created one project per set.

First up is, "Have a Cool Yule" featuring "Mistletoe Kiss" from The Greeting Farm. Aren't these skunks adorable?!!??!!!


Project 2 is for the "Let's Go Blog Hopping" Set featuring Timmy Candy Corn from The Greeting Farm. He is just the sweetest little mouse. When I saw this I knew he would be perfect for this sentiment. He's already enjoying the candy :) And this is another example of how you can manipulate your images to be something else instead of the intended. He is a Halloween image (I think, lol) but he worked perfectly for this card. **This card is my DT Sketch card. I flipped the sketch. Remember that you can flip, rotate, etc the sketch as long as we get to see some of the elements.


And finally, my project for the "Totally Witching" set. This is a Squash Book that features many Greeting Farm cuties as well as several sentiments from the stamp set and some sentiments from "Monster Kisses", a set from Crafty Sprouts first release. This mini book is intended for you to add pictures, journaling and whatever else you may want to carry around with you. These books make great little minis that you can whip up for grandma, auntie,etc.

This is front of the Squash Book (size 4.5 square)
I used the Deconstructing Sketch 19 for the lo.


I created a collage for you as to not bombard you with pictures. The top left picture is an image of the book completely open. The bottom square is an image of a pocket that I added. Inside the pocket are 2 tags for pictures or journaling. You may also add tickets or other bits of paper in the pocket. Also the "Beware Monsters Inside" and "BOO" sentiments come from the Monster Kisses set.

I hope you found some inspiration today and you are ready to Shop, Shop, Shop!!! Click HERE to go to the Crafty Sprouts Shop.

It's "Totally Witchin" Today

Welcome back to Day3 of previews for Crafty Sprouts. This time we are getting "Creepy and Spooky, Mysterious and Kooky" (Lol, well more me than my sistahs') Ok ok as you know by now, we have an awesome Halloween set for you today.

As I mentioned on my Day1 post, I am a Betty girl and I love her and her lines so I thought I would give my Simply Betty Stamps some love. She has soooo many amazing Halloween lines that it was hard to narrow it down as to which one to use, but Teen Scene is one of my fave's so here you go. Lol.  I used Lola Addams from the Teen Scene Halloween line (she's one of my faves!) If you are an Addams Family fan or Halloween fan then you have to go check out the rest of the line.


Now remember, 2 lucky hoppers will win a stamp set. So the more you comment (not including tomorrows blog hop) the more chance you get.
In case you missed my first two posts, here there are:
Day1Have A Cool Yule
Day2 - Let's Go Blog Hopping
Bonus Day - Release the Zombies features today's set

Thanks for stopping by! I will see you tomorrow for an awesome hop with goodies to be had. Plus it will be release day so you'll get to see all the stamps sets in full form.

I used the Saturday Sketch #172 for my card lo. I will be playing with: Make It Colorful - #34 Make it Purple.

Let's Go Blog Hoping!

Welcome back to Day2 of Previews for Crafty Sprouts!
Today we are bringing Friendship to you, particularly Bloggy Friends (Hey that's You!!) :D This is a great set because it's a mixed set that can be used for Bloggy Friends and Personal Friends.

I created a mini set of Thank You cards. This time my cards are featuring some Uber cute Chibis from The Greeting Farm. These super sweet Galies are Chibi Cupcakes and Chibi Cookie 
*I have a cute little story about these Chibis. Gasp! I know, I hardly talk about myself. Ok so anyways, according to my niece I am Chibi Cookie. It all started one day that I was driving her to school and I was thinking about adult things but her being curious wanted to know what I was thinking about. I didn't want to tell her for obvious reasons and so she asked me if I was thinking of Cookies and I said Yes. So ever since then, I've been Cookie Girl and now I'm Chibi Cookie. And according to her, she is Chibi Cupcakes and she's my little maid bringing me cupcakes. LOL!!! I just love little kids and their imagination. *

(Medium: Prismacolor Pencils, A2 size)
I used the Pink {Ink} Sketch #5 for both my cards.

Ok so back to what you came for. Lol. On the set you'll find several accompanying sentiments that will follow the Thanks for... but you will have to wait til Friday to find out what they are ;). I also used Erika's awesome trademark barcode stamp for the back of my cards. Ok remember to be in the drawing for a free set make sure you leave Me, my DT sisters and Mrs. Crafty Sprouts herself some bloggy love. The more you comment the more chances you get.

Thanks for stopping by! And see you back here tomorrow for another preview.

Ps. Did you get a chance to see Who is Prrrrrrrr onto the Greeting Farm. Click HERE to see her and to find out how you can win her.

Look who's Prrrrrrrng onto the Greeeting Farm!


Hi All! I'm here to preview a Brand New Cheeky Gal that is coming to the Greeting Farm tomorrow. 
Introducing CHEEKY KITTY!

Isn't she the cutest?!!?!! I think the Cheeekys might be my favorite line from the Farm although I can't say for sure because the Anya's and the Creepers are def a fave. Lol! So I'm a little fickle when it comes to picking faves, it happens :D


This gal is one sexy vixen being all naughty trying to make amends with Santa. Lol. My awesome sentiment comes from the Brand New Crafty Sprouts sentiment set, "Have a Cool Yule". This set was previewed yesterday and will be released this Friday. If you want a chance to win a set of your own please scroll down to my Day1 post to see how.

Along with previewing this Kitty, the Farmers are also playing along with the WOW Sketch Challenge on the Farm Fresh Challenge Blog. This week is all about circles so make sure you get your round creations in for a chance to win a digi of your choice.
