A FOND Farewell...

{{{PLEASE SCROLL DOWN as there is STILL TIME To preview "Daisy" Sprout and enter to win her!}}

It's top crop Tuesday...

Top Crop Tuesday means that we pick the finest of the finest of YOUR wonderful contributions in the gallery. This time my eyes fell for these beauties...

Denice
I just love the masking effect the clock gives...


Knath
She's just a peach that superstar girl... And what a fun way to let her hang in a metal string like that!


KerryBerry's Fun card
Who can resist this Creeper princess? And I love the fact that it's sort of monochromatic!

Eva91
The beautiful couple deserves some love :-).


Ambrella
And the Cheeky Mate is just perky and yellow. What a fun way to cover an album!


JonJinko
This Hat's off Anya has a special place in my heart. I just love her classiness. And the layout is just beautiful in its simpleness.

Leah The Orange
I love the play with different cut outs as well as the round shape of the card :-).

Farm Fresh, some NEWS, and chances to WIN!...

HEYYYYY everyone!

Today is Farm Fresh Friday and we have a LOT going on today, including a preview of our brand new
SURFER ANYA!

Surfer Anya will wash up to shore on APRIL 1st and be available along with our highly-anticipated CREEPIN' Set and a few more new cuties!  PLEASE be sure to join us here on APRIL 1st for a DT blog hop and unveiling of a BRAND NEW TGF CHALLENGE....you will NOT want to miss this!  More details to come here and on the Club Anya blog in the coming days...

Now, sadly it has come to our attention that MANY of you have seen her already on Facebook via an Ebay site for sale.  We'd like to remind you that number one, if you're a wholesaler, you should not be showing ANYone the upcoming designs until they are released on the 1st of the month and we know that most of our amazing customer base respects that.  Even moreso, selling our images and rubber stamps on Ebay is a BIG NO NO....100% not allowed and we thank everyone that's been helping us shut this little operation down.

ANYWAY, Marie wanted me to remind you guys of this and due to these 'leaks' getting more and more frequent, we'll be giving you a mid-month sneak peek RIGHT HERE on the TGF Blog from now on with STELLAR previews from our Farmers later in the month as usual!  Hopefully this will avoid the 'cat getting out of the bag' from now on.   Thanks as always for your support!

NOW....without further adieu I'd like to congratulate Vicmbee!  YOU are the winner of last week's monochromatic challenge-please email Jess to claim your prize! There were some AMAZING entries this past week-keep up the GREAT work guys!

We have ONE more special announcement before I show off some FABULOUS examples of our new Anya and get to how you can WIN her...please welcome LISA HJULBERG as our APRIL Guest Designer!   Lisa has been a long-time friend and fan of the farm and we are thrilled to welcome her talent and enthusiasm to the farm!  WELCOME LISA!

Here is an adorable preview card using Surfer Anya by Lisa:

Throwback Thursday

Hi everyone, Farmer Tanya here!  It's my turn to dust off an old TGF stamp and today I am sharing with you a card I created using an oldie, but a goodie - Birthday Anya.

When I created this card, I particularly wanted to use the "black and white" colouring technique and I love the contrast against the bright and colourful papers.  The pink bling adds just the right amount of colour.
You can purchase Birthday Anya in the TGF store here.

What are your old favourite TGF stamps?  We'd love to see you use them again!
