Lots of Pun Stamps GIVE AWAY

Hi Friends!  While we're waiting for the new Design Team to get started in March I thought I'd provide a few posts myself. ;)  Be sure to check the end of this post for a GIVE AWAY!
Woo hoo!

 More information about this project is on this post.

These are pillow boxes and a little faux milk carton that I created using Sizzix dies.  All the sentiments are from my Lots of Pun stamp set.  You can find Lots of Pun and more stamps on the Joy's Life Products Page.

More information about this project can be found here.

I used the Cricut Create a Critter cartridge to make this "PAWSitively PURRfect" cat.  It's my cat "Domino".  He's my furry little buddy.  This sentiment is also from my Lots of Pun stamp set.

It Ain't a Party 'Till Somebody Wins Somethin'
~ ~ ~ GIVE AWAY ~ ~ ~
 Those are just a few ideas for using the Lots of Pun stamps.  You know what would be really fun?  WINNING a set of Lots of Puns stamps.  Don't you think that sounds like a good idea?  Totally.


For a chance to win a set of Lots of Pun stamps, leave me a comment telling me a theme you'd like the Design Team to focus on once during their DT term.  I hope you'll also become a follower of this Design Team blog.
Next Tuesday, I'll announce the winner on this blog.  Good luck!!


JUST ADDED: Stacey happened to use this stamp set on her blog today.
Check out what she made HERE.


And the Winner of the Lots of Puns Stamp set is...

I love pillow boxes. Just made about 40 Valentine ones for friends and family. They are so much fun. I need a lot of help with masculine cards or teenage boy cards. Thanks for all your good humor on your blogs. Cheers my day! Regina
<Regina, contact me by going to www.joyslife.com and clicking the email Joy button on the left.  Congratulations!!> 

Thank you all for your great comments and letting me know what you're interested in seeing the DT do this coming term...which starts in MARCH.  WOO HOO!

    Cutest little cat ever! LOL! I have a black and white fur-kitty that loves to sleep on my scrappin' table (while I'm working on projects)...sometimes things go missing... hmmmmm... anyways, I would love to see ideas for masculine cards, more classic and elegant, not just superhero-or cowboy...maybe, outdoorsie or nautical? Thanks Joy!

    There are so many great blogs that feature lots of wonderful cards and projects but layouts seem harder to come by. I would love to see the design team incorporate stamping techniques into layouts with some tips for using stamps when putting together a layout.

  14. DebbieFebruary 1, 2012 at 4:32 PM

    As I was thinking about what I would like the DT to do, I noticed the comment above mine and we came up with the same idea. Sympathy cards would be a wonderful idea, these cards are the hardest to do without making them to plain or to "mushy"

    I would appreciate more masculine cards, and sympathy would be very helpful as I am never sure how to design them, or what to say.

    Thanks!

    I just think everything you do is so neat. Don't know how you come up with the ideas you do. I'm just thankful you do. I agree with all the other ideas for themes, especially the margarita theme, you know it's 5 o'clock somewhere!! :)

    Congratulations to all the new DT members! You will absolutely LOVE designing with Joy's stamps and thinking of new and unusual ways of using them. And Joy herself is wonderful to design for... she is so generous, sweet and supportive of her team. Have fun and we'll be waiting for your first projects!

    My son has been going to a lot of parties, so I'd like to see a "good for everyone" theme--for occasions of going to a party and needing a card/gift tag/little gift for everyone at the party. Boys & girls. All identical, or at least similar.

    Cute projects and adorable card (I love that cat from CAC). I have 4 cats myself! And your stamps are even cuter (or is that punnier?). I would love to see a challenge where you might request that a certain cut from a specific cartridge be used. Your Design Team is terrific--can't wait to see what's coming!--Pat N.

    My wife and i ended up being quite comfortable that Albert could carry out his studies through your precious recommendations he made through your web pages. It is now and again perplexing to just choose to be giving freely techniques that the others could have been selling. And we all remember we've got you to thank because of that. All of the illustrations you made, the simple web site menu, the relationships your site help to promote - it's everything fabulous, and it's really letting our son in addition to the family understand that idea is amusing, which is certainly truly fundamental. Thanks for all the pieces!
