Welcome to our first "Wednesday Retro Fresh Challenge!!! Now you may be asking your self what is "Retro Fresh.... Well let me tell you:
What exactly IS "RETRO-fresh"?
Well, we know that we are blessed to have LOTS of customers with us from the very beginning, back in 2008...not ONLY does that make us the luckiest little stamp co. this side of the world, but it also means there are LOTS of designs that need plenty of lovin' that maybe haven't seen daylight in a while ;) 

So....

On the 2nd Wednesday of the month, the FFC is proud to bring you
RETRO-FRESH!


Each month we will have a THEME and this month's theme will be:
ANIMALS.

No animal stamps?  NOOOOO problem!  Use paper, embellishments, whatever you have!

Just use ANY TGF STAMP that is at LEAST 6 months old.
For a list of stamps/retirements, please visit our SCS Page.  The list isn't *completely* done yet and doesn't include digis as of yet, but we are working on it...it's a labor of LOVE for sure, heehee ;)
The best part?

You have ALL MONTH to play along!  We'll choose a winner and post it with our next Retro-Fresh challenge on Wednesday, November 9th, so you have until Nov. 8th at NOON CST to get those entries in!

Happy World Card Making Day..

Hi everyone I hope you all had a great day.. and if any one "visited" SCS ( Thank you for welcoming The Greeting Farm.. I am still "super excited and happy about being on the FFC Design Team.

I wanted to make sure I got in a few cards done for World Card Making day... Just as my DD asked me for two "Birthday" cards for 2 of her "besti" So I deiced to show those for my WCMD.

I used this little sweetie from C.C Designs Party. Now on the Original stamp she is holding a balloon. But I got too close with my scissors and I cut off her balloon :0(.... But luckily I had these balloons from EK success. 

Here is another Image from the same set... I love her with her little banner.. I had these papers and thought it would be great for it. I got a little inspirations for each of my cards from several sits.. but still added my won little "twist" to it.


I hope you hall have a Great Weekend..

Happy Scrapping,
