THE GREETING FARM - FEBRUARY 2026 NEW RELEASE

The February 2026 New Release is now available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store! This month we introduced 3 new stamp sets. Our first stamp set called MONSTER HUGS features four mischievous, yet lovable creatures known for their jagged teeth and playful expressions. Next, we have PETS & KIDS, an adorable, feel-good set celebrating the sweet bond between kids and their favorite pets. Lastly, we have SCOOTING BY ANYA, a set perfect for friendship cards, hello cards, or sending words of encouragement. 

Instead of a blog hop every month, we are going to do challenges in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group for a chance to win a $50 Gift Certificate to The Greeting Farm Store. You guys have asked for more challenges so we are giving you one every month! The challenges will start on the 15th of each month and run until the 14th of the next month so you have several weeks to work on your project that fits the challenge theme.

Our first challenge of 2026 is a SKETCH CHALLENGE. To enter, upload your card to the Challenge Album in The Greeting Farm Fan Page Facebook Group (challenge rules will be shown under the Album).
(Click on "Media" > "Albums". Find the challenge album for the month and click on it. Click on "Add Photos". After you upload your card to the album, leave a comment under your card so it shows up on the Discussion page.)

 

Here is my take on this wonderful sketch. I used the Pets & Kids stamp set for this fun card. I paired some lovely Diamond Press patterned paper with some cardstock from my stash, and made sure to color the sweet girl and cat to match. Instead of using the accompanying sentiment stacked as it normally is, I used washi tape to mask off each word when inking, then peeled it away to stamp just one word alone. Adding just a few heart embellishments really made this card shine. 

Make sure to check out the AMAZING cards from our Design Time featuring the new products along with the Sketch Challenge! Please leave them some love!

THE GREETING FARM: A Cozy Card for Book Lovers

Hello, Greeting Farm fans. Heather here, but this time I am back as a full-time designer for The Greeting Farm! I had so much fun, that I just had to stick around. For today’s project, I grabbed the Book Lover clear stamp set and got to work.

 

I stamped a few images and the wonderful sentiment from the Book Lover stamp set onto white paper and used alcohol markers to color each of the animals and the books and bookshelf.

 

Once those were colored, I fussy cut everything, then used a medium gray along the edges to clean up any white spots. I then hand cut the banner with the book lover sentiment and popped everything up with foam tape.

 

I colored the background papers to match the books and found a piece of metallic paper to ground the images on. Instead of leaving it plain, I added some texture with an embossing folder, then used a sanding block to bring out the browns underneath the copper.

 

To finish the card, I added a few pearls to create some additional shine I love how all the little details, the cute mug, the little books, and the fun colors, all come together to create a cozy, bookish feel. This Book Lover card would be perfect for a fellow book lover. Thank you for stopping by today! Happy Crafting!

THE GREETING FARM: Small Surprises with Guest Designer Heather Conklin

 

Hello, Greeting Farm fans! Heather here again with my final Guest Designer post. For today’s project, I wanted to create a celebration card, specifically a birthday card. My own birthday is this week, and I thought it would be fun to create something that would be just as fun to receive. 

I started by stamping the cute cake image from the Small Surprises clear stamp set onto a tag cut from the Elle’s Studio Perforated Tags metal die. I colored the image with alcohol markers, layering colors to add a bit of depth, and finished with a touch of white gel pen on the bunny cheeks. 

 

Once the tag was complete, I added the sentiment from the same stamp set, threaded a coordinating ribbon through the hole, and secured it with my tiny attacher. I then pulled a few papers from my stash and used a set of scalloped rectangle dies to create the card base. 

To finish this cute project, I stamped and colored a few more of the bunny images from the Small Surprises clear stamp set and added them to the card using some foam tape for extra dimension.  

Thank you to The Greeting Farm for one of the most fun months of crafting I’ve had in a while!

THE GREETING FARM: Mermaid Fun with Guest Designer Heather Conklin

 

Hello Greeting Farm fans! Heather back again with my second Guest Designer project for January. I had SO much fun with The Greeting Farm stamps on this fun card featuring the Mermaid Fun – Clear Stamps set.
I wanted to create a fun scene and had in my mind a tunnel card. Tunnel cards are fun as you can use any layered shape dies (circles, rectangles, etc.) and cut out the same shape in a repeated pattern, creating a smaller tunnel as you go. To achieve this look, I used a set of standard circle dies and skipped every other die in the set.
Pop each layer up with foam tape, and you can tuck in those fun mermaids, whales and sharks, in between layers of paper.
I finished this cute card off by adding a fun sentiment on a handcut banner, and little pearls that act like bubbles throughout the card. Isn’t the Mermaid Fun set just so cute?!

 Thanks for stopping in and looking at my guest designer work with The Greeting Farm. I’ll see you soon with my last January project!
