Introducing Fancy Anya!

Do you remember when you were a little girl and you used to dress up in your favourite fairy dress or skirt or see those gorgeous ballerinas and want to be like them, they were so graceful and fancy. Well Fancy Anya is that little girl!

She reminds me of my girls who just love to dress up and twirl all around the house in their pretty ballerina skirts


I have given my whole card a spray of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist, which you can sort of see here on Miss Fancy Anya, isn't she just Adorable!

Now go and see what the rest of the farmers have done with this adorable Fancy Anya, I guarantee you are going to see absolutely gorgeous creations!

Are you Naughty or Nice.....?

Hello EVERYONE!  Hope you all had a very MERRY Christmas and that it was full of magic and memories!

We are beginning January previews today with some HUGE news and fun announcements...are you all ready?  First and foremost, we have some HELLO's and Goodbyes.   The Greeting Farm would like to thank Melyssa and Randi as their terms with TGF are ending and we wish them both well!  From now on, TGF Farmers terms will be 6 months long instead of one year and although it probably won't make it any EASIER to say goodbye to our talented designers, we are excited about this!

Also saying goodbye this week are the FABULOUS members of our Critter Crew. Not because their terms are up, but because the Critter Crew itself will no longer be considered a 'team' of TGF. While we will surely have a cute critter by Marina from time to time, we will no longer be releasing these on a regular basis and it is with an ENORMOUS amount of gratitude that we say goodbye to such a WONDERFUL team of designers!  Thank you all so much!

Well, now that we've gotten the sad part out of the way, we have THREE NEW FARMERS to welcome to TGF and a new Guest Designer that we are THRILLED about!   Please welcome:
EMMA EADS - Me!!!!!
SARI HANNINEN as our 
THREE NEW FARMERS and please welcome 

BUTTERCUP as our January Guest Designer!

TONS of excitement going on around the FARM!  And as if that werent enough?   Check out our first preview, a Cheeky Cherry "NAUGHTY or NICE" set!

So it is wothout further ado that I bring you my very first TGF Card as a Farmer....oh that sounds good..hehe!

Introducing you to Naughty & Nice............Isn't she just Adorable!

I made this card for my best friend as a Thank-you card as she helped me out through a pretty rough time a little while ago and as soon as I saw this gorgeous Angel I knew that she would be perfect to use, as my best friend certainly was my Angel!


Be sure to head on over and WELCOME our new designers and to visit ALL The TGF DT, including Team Anya as they have previews for you today too!  We'll see you back tomorrow on the TGF Blog with a chance to WIN a new Oliver and Amelia set!
