Give Thanks Pumpkin

Hello!  Today, I've got a 3D project for you! For this week's post, I thought I'd make an Amigurumi pumpkin and embellish it with one of Joy's wonderful stamps.




As you can see, this saying from Joy's It's All Fall Puns set goes perfect with my project.  



If you don't have this wonderful rubber stamp set, you can get yours here.

 If I have the time, I'm going to make these for my siblings and give them out on Thanksgiving.  If you'd like more details on how I made this, I'd love it if you drop by my blog!

Until next time, have a great day!!

Fangtastic Coffin Treat Box


My daughter's birthday is the day before Halloween, so I couldn't wait to use this stamp. However, I couldn't find anything vampire related, until Joy asked us to create something 3D. I found the pattern for this coffin shaped treat box from Martha Stewart.

I used the Fangtastic Birthday Wishes stamp from the Halloween Puns set on the coffin lid. I stamped it with black pigment ink then embossed it with black embossing powder also.

Multi-color Embossing

Hello, everyone!  It's Patty from the Crafty Kitten here with an embossed project for you.  If you've been following the DT Blog, you've seen some really neat embossed ideas!

I thought I'd break out my brayer, embossing folder, and some Kaleidacolor Ink. 


This is a fun stamp and it comes from Joy's It's All Fall Puns set.  I know my in-laws from Missouri will love the saying!  All of Joy's stamps are available for purchase here.


If you get a chance, drop by my blog for details on how I made this simple and fast card.

Have a great day!

Fangs So Much!

I hope you all have had a great week and are looking forward
to nothing short of an amazing weekend!
This week the Joy's Life DT has been Embossing their creations.
Here is a quick Halloween Themed Thank You Card
that I created featuring the "Fangs So Much" stamp
found in the Halloween Puns Stamp Set (my favorite!) :)

I heat embossed the edges of my blocks with Tim Holtz's
Distress Black Embossing Powder in Black Soot.
It's a bit hard to see as I had a little difficulty trying to get
a good shot showing the heat embossed edges,
but it goes around both blocks completely.
I really love the distressed and aged look it added to the card.


I wish you all a happy weekend and feel free to stop on by
my blog HERE to check out more details on my card!

Happy Scrappin'!


Love you to the Core!

Greetings! Maria here from Joyful Stamper
to share a little love!

I used my Cri-Kits pen in my Cricut to draw the apple background. 
Then I attached an embossed negative cut heart layer over it. 
too fun!

Of course there was the perfect sentiment in the 
Joy's Life It's All Fall Puns stamp set 
to compliment my design!


For all my project details,
visit me @ Joyful Stamper!
Blessings!

Clean and simple embossed halloween card

I had this card in my head for a while. I am always trying to come up with simple, classy Halloween cards. Embossing seemed like the perfect match for that style.


I used the Oct 31st stamp from the Halloween Puns set. I embossed it in black on the kraft paper, then embossed it in clear, in a pattern on the black card itself. I love using embossing to create subtly textured patterns.


For more information, check out my blog.

Relax and unwind mummy card

Hello everyone, it's Lori with got2bcrafting!
This week the Design Team is creating projects using different embossing techniques. I LOVE to use my Cuttlebug embossing folders on projects, it just adds so much dimension and texure.
I think the Distressed Stripes folder worked well on today's project:

And Joy's stamps work great even on textured surfaces:
 See how clean and crisp the sentiment turned out...it's perfect!!

This stamp is part of the Joy's Life Halloween Puns stamp set.
You can purchase this set right here.

For more information regarding my card, please come on over and see my blog.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you will check back tomorrow and see what fun projects the DT will be sharing.





Wart's Up?
