Happy Thanksgiving...already???

Hi crafty friends!

Happy Thursday and Happy Halloween!!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner
here to show you another project that uses those awesome
 Joy's Life Stamps.

This week the Joy's Life Design Team is showing you

Fall Decor Projects.

I decided to make a little pumpkin basket to put on my kitchen bar to hold some little treats.

Here in the U.S., it will be Thanksgiving before you know it so I figured I would get a jump start on some Thanksgiving decor.

For the greeting on my basket, I used a sentiment from the 

It's All Fall Puns Set:

A Little Something To Gobble

Hello everyone! Laura here from Laura's Crafts & More...This week the DT is making Fall Decor projects! I know this isn't "decor" but I've been down with a pulled muscle in my back and haven't been able to sit at my craft table for long...so I whipped this up during my "good time" of my meds! 

Not feeling well & crafting do not go well together! But I think it turned out cute! I used "A Little Something To Gobble" from It's All Fall Puns! Dimensional stickers, Magic Mesh & Mercury Glass Stickles are all I needed to make a super cute tag to add to any Fall project!

Give Thanks!

Hello, crafty friends.  Julie here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers.  This week, the Joy's Life design team is featuring projects with the theme "Around the House".  I have to tell you, the first thing that came to mind for me was how much cleaning could be done around my house!  Maybe if I stayed home and didn't craft all the time when I WAS home.  Oh well! It just gets dusty again anyway.

So, after much hemming and hawing, stumbling and bumbling, I decided I wanted to make a little something for the end table by our couch in the living room. I found a cutting file for an acorn box -- a perfect Fall decoration that I could cut out on my Silhouette -- and I went with that.

 

 

I used the Joy's Life Stamp Set "It's All Fall Puns" for the sentiment on my acorn shaped box.

 

Here's a close up of the sentiment:

 

 

I love the  Autumn feel the painted leaves gave to this project. I have one more view of the box that shows the shape a little better and I'll leave you with that....

 

And, that's it for today. If you'd like more details about this acorn box, or to see what else I've been working on, please visit my blog. Don't forget to stop by each day of the week to see the rest of the creations from the Joy's Life Design Team. 



Fall Candle Decor

Hello, Maria here from Five Simple Things.

I'm having so much fun decorating my home in

beautiful autumn colors.

I used Joy's stamp set,

It's All Fall Puns

to dress up one of my

candles the other day. 

Joy's Life stamp set (It's All Fall Puns)
Cricut: Stretch Your Imagination cart, page 48

I had this vanilla pillar candle just sitting in a dish of autumn potpourri, it smells wonderful but was a bit too plain for me. It needed a crafter's touch, so I added ribbons, jute string. some die cut leaves and stamping, of course! 

There, just right!

Happy Fall Y'all - Shaped card

Hello crafty friends, it's Lori with got2bcrafting!

Happy, Happy Saturday!

I hope you were able to see all the great projects the DT shared with you this week.  They really did "Bling It Up"!!

Here is the card I created for you:

I added some rhinestones and hemp twine for my "bling"!

The sentiment I used is from Joy's "It's All Fall Puns", which you can find at the Joy's Life Store.

I found this fabulous card at SVG Cuts.com.

The card base is paper I purchased at PTI, and all the other pattern papers are digital paper I purchased from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons.

Thanks for stopping by.

I would love for you to come visit my blog. :)

Have a Happy, Crafty Day!!

Blinged Out Squash

Forget the rustic fall look...

This week, Joy's Life designers are blinging out their creations!

This Joy's Life Sentiment comes from "It's All Fall" stamp set.

To keep it simple, I embossed the edge of the patterned paper.  

This gives a little definition...and keeps my card CAS.

Thanks for visiting today...

Bling-y Coffin

Hi crafty friends!

Happy Thursday!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner 
here to show you another project that uses those awesome
 Joy's Life Stamps.

This week the Joy's Life Design Team is showing you

projects that incorporate Bling in them.

I found a plain little wooden coffin box and that makes spooky sounds when the lid is opened, so I decided to alter it and make it pretty. Well, as pretty as a spooky coffin can get I suppose lol!

For the Oct. 31, I used a stamp from the Halloween Puns Joy's Life stamp set:

Spooky!!!

Look at all the great sayings on this set:

Hello! Julie here from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers, sharing a project with you using bling. I'm not a huge user of bling on my projects, but I managed to use it on this pumpkin shaped card...

When I seen this adorable Ghost from My Scrap Chick, I knew it would be the perfect treat container to make to go along with the "Boo" sentiment!!

I added a little shimmer to his bow!

So fun!!

It's a scary week this week with the Joy's Life design team.  We're creating witches, ghosts, and monsters.  Yeah, we're in full Halloween mode!

I found an adorable witches hat card I wanted to try, and I'm pleased with how it turned out.  What do you think?

 

 

The sentiment is from the Joy's Life "Halloween Puns" stamp set. I cut the hat out on my Silhouette.

EYE love you - Purple Monster Bags

Hi Crafters! Maria here from Five Simple Things.

This week the team is sharing a bit of 

Halloween fun with you.

These bags could really be for any time of the year

but are especially cute for Halloween.

I always enjoy adding a bit of fun to the dinner table 

for the little ones in attendance. 

Joy's Life stamp set (Halloween Puns),

CM circle punches for mouth, Stampin Up cardstock

These came together in no time.

I used my Cricut Craft Room software to select 

these basic shapes. I only needed two bags, 

but you could easily fill your cricut mat 

to make multiple Purple People Eaters!

Hope you enjoyed my little project today.

Come visit me @ Five Simple Things!

thank you - Ombre card

Hello crafters,

it's Lori with got2bcrafting!

Happy, Happy Saturday!

This week the DT has been sharing Ombre style cards.  What is Ombre?? Ombre is the gradual change in a shade of color from light to dark or vise versa.

And here is my creation:

 The sentiment is from the Tag You're It - Set One.

I altered a file I found at the Silhouette online store to make my card.

The ombre effect was created with some paint chip samples I had on hand from when my daughter was picking colors to paint her room. :)

Don't forget to check out all of Joy's amazing stamps and crafting goodies at the Joy's Life Store.

I hope you enjoyed my project.

Have a HAPPY, CRAFTY DAY!!

Birthday Wishes!

Yesterday, I found out that it was my lunch friend and neighbor's birthday.

Only...it isn't as special as she might want it to be.

So...I made this bat card...using Joy's Life: Halloween Puns.

I love the colored bats and white sentiment against the black background.

I sprinkled some white embossing powder on the card base for some extra interest.

I know that some would stick when I embossed the "fangtastic" sentiment. 

So...I just "went with it" and added more splatter before embossing!

A crafty friend gave me a white sharpie marker....which I used for the fangs.

What a great new (to me) product! 

I can just imagine tons of uses for this opaque marker!

Thanks for check out out my card today!

Christmas - Ombre Style

Happy Wednesday Joy's Life Stamp Friends! 

Kendra here from Luv 2 Scrap N' Make Cards to share a fun project with you!

This week we are creating projects based on the "Ombre" style!

At first I had no clue what that was!
So after looking it up a few times, as Julie mentioned the other day it is 
"the French word for color that is shaded or graduated in tone."

Call me CRAZY, but I have really started getting into the holiday spirit!  So I've been creating a lot of Christmas cards!

So with the "Ombre" style in mind, I decided I wanted to create a Christmas card with a tree on it using the fun
"tree-mendous wishes for a sparkling holiday season" sentiment from the Oh Christmas Puns set!!

I used my Cricut to cut out the fun holiday tree, in which I used 3 green colors of cardstock to get the "Ombre" style!



And I obviously had to add a lot of bling to give it that perfect "sparkle"!!


Have a wonderful day!!

Sweets For The Sweet-Ombre

Hello everyone! Laura here from Laura's Crafts & More...This week the DT is making projects using the Ombre technique. I couldn't decide whether to use paper or ink for my ombre colors but finally decided on Ink Sprays! I really liked how this turned out and will definitely be doing this more often! I used "Sweets For The Sweet" from Joy's Halloween Puns set and made a cute tag to go with some candy that I found last weekend...

I used Dylusions Ink Spray in Squeezed Orange, Pure Sunshine & Lemon Zest to create my Ombre look.... 

Then added some cute "button" embellishments, inked the edges with black and stamped my saying. Super cute, super fast & super easy! Love those kind of projects! :)
