Farm Fresh...


**Want to be a Fresh Squeezed Stamps designer?  We are currently accepting applications for our Design Team!  Details can be found HERE**




Hello! It's Amy T here, sharing a farm fresh card:


I'm a huge fan of Saturday Farmer's Markets!  I'm lucky to live in area where there are a couple that I can hit on the weekend!

I'll be honest, I only like cooked carrots and carrot cake, LOL....but I wanted to pop those carrots from the Mother Knows Best set into that fun berry basket from The Sweet Life.


I used a SRM sticker for the sentiment.





Thanks so much for stoppin' by!

Thanks for Teacher

Hello there, it's Maureen here today on the blog.  With the end of school right around the corner, I've been busy in my stamp room getting teacher thank you cards ready.


For this card, I've used the paper piecing technique for the The Sweet Life's apple and paired it with a sentiment from You Said It, Sister.  Stars, bookprint and apples are perfect for a teacher :)

You Said It, Sister

The Sweet Life

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!  Stop by tomorrow for more Fresh Squeezed inspiration!

SWAK


Hi everyone!  Amy K. here with a sweet card that uses several Fresh Squeezed Stamp sets!
It's so fun to mix and match sets to make your idea come alive!  I love the 2 bee images that are included in The Sweet Life and I paired them with the little heart that I "removed" from the envelope stamp from String Me Along.

That's it for me today but stay tuned this week as it's almost time for this month's Squeeze-A-Palooza Challenge.........get out those stamp sets and get inky!!

Sweet Life

Hi....Amy K. here with a quick and easy card using The Sweet Life.  As the school year nears the end, we usually end up needing quite a few "teacher" cards to say just a little something.  I thought this sentiment would be perfect for my youngest to write her teacher a note!!

To stamp the apple, I stamped the red "apple" first with the BACKSIDE of the stitched apple stamp.  Flip it back over and stamp with the stitched side.  You get this great look WITHOUT the coloring.....which is right up my alley.  :)

you make life sweet

A Country Hello

It's Maureen here with a bit of country inspiration for you using the new and totally adorable Friendly Folk stamp set. 



I love the little details that are included in Friendly Folk.  The stars and stitching are the perfect additions to any country project.  Pair that with a heart and plaid paper and you have the perfect country ensemble!

You Warm My Heart!


Hi everyone!  It's Amy K. here with a card that's sure to warm your heart.........

I wanted to create a little scene with my stamps.  Here I've stamped the fence (The Sweet Life) but upside down to give the fence panels a flat surface for my birdie to sit on.  And those clouds?  It is the cloud from Weather Through but stamped on the reverse side to give the solid cloud!

you warm my heart

The Sweet Life

Short and sweet for today!  Have a fantastic Wednesday!!

Birthday Wishes

It's Maureen here for some Fresh Squeezed inspiration for you.  Today I have created a cute little birthday scene.


I love looking at my stamps and trying to figure out different and unique ways to use them.  Here I've used Trendy Triangles to make a party hat and banner and the woodgrain stamp from Background Check to make a tree.

Have you made any fun discoveries with these sets yet?

Hello!

Hello there, 
it's Maureen today with a little Fresh Squeezed inspiration!  I don't know what it is like where you are, but in Northeastern PA we are seeing below zero temperatures. It is bitterly cold and a reminder of why I love Summer. Longing for the days when the birds wake me up with their beautiful songs, I created this summery scene using The Sweet Life stamp set..


To make my card, I sponged the background in shades of green and blue, then did my stamping.  I inked and stamped only the legs of the bird, then paper pieced and added it with dimensionals.  The card base is 3 1/2x 5.  The perfect size for dropping into a lunch bag or briefcase.


You can find The Sweet Life stamp set here in the FSS Store.


I hope this card brings a little sunshine and warmth to your day!
Stop by again tomorrow for more FSS inspiration.

Ryann is back again today with a lovely little Valentine's Day card using Christmas Treats (apothecary jar, sweets) and The Sweet Life (sentiment).  One of the greatest things about the Christmas Treats set is the versatility of it. You can easily create many different colored candy schemes to fit any holiday year-round!

You Make Life Sweet Card

Welcome to the weekend, Fresh Squeezed friends!  We're busy gearing up behind the scenes for our November release.  The festivities kick off on Tuesday, November 6th and we've got *lots* of fun in store for you!!  :)

Ryann has an apple orchard inspired card using stamps from The Sweet Life.  She stamped the sentiment multiple times along the bottom of the card.  Then on a different piece of white cardstock, she stamped the apples in different colored inks and cut them out and adhered them onto her card.  Next she affixed similar colored buttons and DONE! A super easy card - nice , clean and as a crisp as an apple!  :)



Be sure to come back to visit us on Monday for a sneak peek of our November release and our November Guest Design Team reveal.  We guarantee you don't want to miss it!

Sweet Bird on a Fence

We hope you're having a great week!  Only a couple more days until we hit the weekend, but before then, we've got more Fresh Squeezed inspiration to share with you today!

Ryann created this super cute scene using stamps from The Sweet Life.  We love the paper pieced bird and the bits of eyelet ribbon and twine!  So cute!!



If you haven't heard, we started a new challenge on the blog called Squeeze-A-Palooza! You can play along using your Fresh Squeezed Stamps or the FREE digital image we posted to the blog earlier this week.  You can find out more about Squeeze-A-Palooza HERE!!

Hexagon Flowers

Hello Fresh Squeezed friends!  We have a super cute and springy card to share with you today.  

Ryann used the hexagons (Happy Hexagons) and the heart (The Sweet Life) to create her flowers.  The stem is the flight trail that would typically be used with either the bees or the bird (The Sweet Life).  Combining stamps from different stamp sets is a great way to get more mileage out of them!



Thanks for stopping by today!  Be sure to come say hi to us on Twitter.  You can find us HERE!  Have a great Thursday!  :)

Bee You

Happy Saturday, Fresh Squeezed friends! We hope you are enjoying your weekend!  :)

When I first saw Savannah's card using The Sweet Life, I literally squealed.  I love the play on words she has incorporated into her card.  Not to mention the farm fresh feel of the card - it's amazing!!


Thank you for choosing to spend your weekend with Fresh Squeezed Stamps!  We have more inspiration lined up for you - so be sure to come back and visit us again!  :)

Bee Your Best

We've got a sweet one for you today!  Jennifer Rzasa, of Our Change of Art, has made this darling card using The Sweet Life.  We just love the effect the punched out clouds gives Jennifer's card.  The sweet little bee flying between the clouds - perfection!



If you haven't checked out our online store yet, be sure you do!  You can pick up the The Sweet Life, Happy Hexagons, Subway Series: Holidays and Christmas Treats.  Happy shopping!  :)

Sweet Apples

Happy Wednesday!  Have you recovered from World Card Making Day yet? We're just getting our groove back after a fun and exciting weekend!

Here at FSS headquarters in San Diego, our apple orchards are in full swing!  The Apple Days Festival just started so I thought it would be fun to create a card using one of the apple stamps from The Sweet Life.

I paper pieced the apples in red and pink patterned papers and the fruit basket from a fun chevron striped paper.  The shaped tag was cut out from my Silhouette and was faux stitched using a black marker.


We had a bunch of orders that were mailed out yesterday, so if you placed your first order with Fresh Squeezed Stamps already - you should see them in your mailbox soon! We would LOVE to see your creations using our stamps, so be sure to link your projects to us on Facebook!  

If you haven't already liked us on Facebook and followed us on Twitter, what are you waiting for?! :)

We'll see you back here on the blog tomorrow for more inspiration from one of our guest designers!
