I'm a TGF Premiere Farmer!

Hey everyone! I have some ohhhhh so exciting news to share with you today that, well, might "shock and awe" some of you, as it did me!  A few weeks ago, Jessica Diedrich, one of my fave friends and blog-babes (cute, eh?!) asked me to join the Premiere Farmers of The Greeting Farm.  I was so flattered.....and of course, (after I asked her if she had the right Corinna and the right email address) said YES!!!  The Greeting Farm is planning so many fabulous changes in the coming year, and the Design Teams are one the changes.

Here's a little bit about the Premiere Farmers:

"The TGF Premiere Farmers" is a small group selected by Jess and Marie to bring you a broad spectrum of samples during preview week and hopefully, a larger amount of ideas during that week than ever before!  TGF is switching things up a bit for 2012 by separating our Farmers into two groups; the "TGF PREMIERE Farmers, who'll bring you an even more power-packed week of previews, and our SHOWCASE DT, which we had an open call for and you'll also be seeing those girls in action very soon!  TGF is proud to be changing and growing with some of the best designers in blog land and we can't wait to get started! 

And that's not all....the other Premier Farmer being introduced today is an amazing woman and wonderful friend of mine: Wendy Ramlakhan!  Now, don't forget to leave me and Wendy some love today because Jessica Diedrich, the TGF Creative Coordinator and one of my all time favorite peeps, will be going through comments on both of our blogs and giving away a MISS ANYA GARLAND set to one lucky winner!  ;)

That being said, let me introduce you to Miss Anya Garland!  Actually, there are 3 Miss Anya stamps in this one set and are they ever the sweetest!  Here is the first, Miss Anya with her adorable hand-cut heart banner.  
I colored her with Copics and paper-pieced her little outfit and headband from the My Mind's Eye Love Me paper pad. The Granite Grey Vintage Seam-Binding triple-bow was so easy to make with the Bow-Easy
I colored the heart banner with Copics to look like crayons, then cut it out and popped it up.  Soooo cute!!

Next up is Miss Anya with a Love banner.  Ohhhhh.....adorable!!!
Oh how I adore this little Miss Anya with her pretty lace peeking out from under her paper-pieced dress.  I used Bubblegum Pleated Tulle and a 1" Gluber to make the flower to match.  
 Some adorable pearls in the corners and for the "o" and voila, she's perfect!

Thanks so much for joining me and be sure to hop on over to the most amazing coloring artist, Wendy's blog to see even more sneak peeks!! And then stop by again on Dec 30th so I can share MORE projects from this newest The Greeting Farm release!!
