Upcycled Gift

Hi Everyone!
It's Kimberly from hellocutiecrafts here to 

share a project with you today.

This week the Joy's Life design team is 

sharing our recycled projects with you.

I am always saving containers and packing, 

so I picked something from my stash.

I decided to altered a Crystal Light Lemonade container, 

to use as a fun Birthday gift.

I used one of Joy's Life *New* Stamp set, "My Hero".

 

Thanks for stopping by the blog today!

Check out all of Joy's Life Stamps and Products.

All the details of this project are on my blog.

Have a wonderful day! 

Ice cream cone treat box.

Today I have a fun cricut treat box to share with you. I got this ice cream cone pattern from the Sweet Treat Boxes cartridge. It was a lot easier than it looks! The top opens and there is an area above the cone that you can put treats in! 

I used the 'Ice Cream Happy Birthday' stamp from the Yummy Puns set!

For more information check out my blog.

Valentine's day gift box

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Since it is Valentine's Day I wanted to make something special. I love coffee and who wouldn't want to receive a gift of coffee for Valentine's Day?! The best thing about this box? You don't need a template, or electronic cutter - it's so easy!

I used hearts from the Joyful hearts set to decorate the paper that I made into the box.  The sentiment stamp is from the You're so Punny set.

For more details, including steps to make the box, check out my blog.

Altered Candy Bag

Best Witches treat box

Halloween is one of my favorite times of year. Not only is it fall and a fun holiday, but it's also my daughter's birthday. I chose this stamp because I like that it works for a birthday too - a halloween birthday! 

I used a paper mache box and covered it in paper before stamping the sentiment and adhering my die cuts.

This stamp is from the Halloween Puns set. 

check out my blog for more details!

Fall Door Hanging

I love a new, or refreshed, door hanging for the fall. When Joy asked us to create a home decor item for this week, I thought that was a perfect excuse to make a new one. I actually used some things I had around the house to create this new project. 

I used the 'Happy Fall Y'all' stamp from the It's All Fall Puns set. 

Check out my blog for more details.

More Than Fall Home Decor

Hi!! This is Jennie from Earthy Scrap.

This week in Joy's Life we are doing Fall Theme Home Decor. 

The reason I picked these super muted colors 

is so I could change it through the year. 

Since is for fall I picked brown for the tags on the side.

The sentiments I used for this project are from 

the new Joy's Life Stamp Set "It's All Fall Puns"

I hope you enjoyed the project!!

Take Care!!

Halloween Inspired Wooden Frame

Hi everyone! This is Cyndy from Arcy Scraps. This week we will be showing you all sorts of Fall Home Decor projects! How fun is that! When I think of Fall, I think of oranges, browns, muted greens and yellows, and Halloween! Yes, I said Halloween! For my project, I embellished a wooden frame with Halloween in mind.  

The sentiment is from Halloween Puns. I love this stamp set! You can really do so much with it, not just Halloween projects!

Personalized Friendship Plaque

Hi there, it's me Jeannie with a fun project I am giving to my good friend I am about to see in 2 hours...that translates into...I will get very little sleep tonight!

I have used 2 stamps from the set called You're so Punny.  The exact phrase that I needed wasn't in the set, but by combining 2 together, I was able to get what I needed.

Instead of doing a card, I thought I'd do this little plaque to remind her of our early morning workouts. I should say HER workouts, I just pretend to workout alongside her.

We talk about anything and everything, we try to solve the world's problems and we happily refer to the gym as the batcave.

Stamped phrases can be used in many different ways, and my project shows you that they are not just for cards! 

They chair stamp is from Close to My Heart, the ladybug, is an old one of mine and my papers are various brands.

The dies I used are by MFT and Cheery Lynn Designs.

I hope you have enjoyed this little treasure I have shared today.

This has been Jeannie from The Polka Cabana, posting in behalf of Joy's Life.com.  Have a great day.

A tree-t altered can of nuts

Megan here again with a sweet little treat tin. I used a chocolate covered macadamia nut can, which just happens to go pretty well with the pun. I left the lid sort of plain because it matched already.

I used the 'A tree-t for you' stamp from the Yummy Puns set. (Didn't I mention last week that I just got that set and totally in love?)

Check out my blog for more info.

Back to school cookie bag

It's Megan again, back with a fun back to school project. I am not ready for the summer to be over, but I do love back to school time. I guess it's nostalgia, but it's just so exciting! I decided to create a fun little treat for my daughter's lunch box. 

Don't mind the condensation in the baggie, it was so hot outside that when I went out, the bag fogged all up! LOL! 

Those are lemon iced zucchini cookies! Yum!

I used the 'You're a Smart Cookie' stamp from the Yummy Puns set! I just got this set and I can't get enough of it!

Check out my blog for more details.

Back to School Notebook

Hi everyone...I am here with a bit of a late post for Joy's Life.com, thanks to lots of smoke in the air affecting my little one with asthma..not a fun past 48 hours, let me tell you!

This week over at Joy's Life.com , we are all working on projects gearing up for BACK TO SCHOOL. 

I have this adorable purse to show you.  Have you seen these before????

Can you tell what it is made out of??

First of all let me point out I have made a sweet little tag from the LOTS OF PUN stamp set.

Here is a close up of the front, you can tell, but the sewing scene is all sewn into a pouch of vinyl.

Here is a side view and maybe now you can tell this is made from a simple inexpensive composition notebook.

Here is the inside.

More of the inside.

Here is a view of the back.

One last look at the front.

I didn't have pattern for this, I just kind of made it up as I went along.

I just LOVE it!  I thought it was perfect for the whole back to school theme.

Maybe a bit fancy for grade school, but maybe for the up and coming new designer, seamstress?  Who knows!  It is just SEW DARN CUTE!!

This has been Jeannie from The Polka Cabana with today's post.

That Stinks!
