a-maize-ing

** Click HERE for Joy's Life Halloween Blog Hop! ** 

Hi crafty friends ♥
Over at Joy's Life Design Team blog you'll be seeing all types of projects this week! Make sure to check it out each day because there's no telling what these talented women are going to create next! :o) 

I decided to go with a very clean and simple card. 
 The corn stalk is from the Just Because cartridge. I actually just cut the entire cut in the yellow pattern paper and used the G07 Copic marker to color in the "stalk."
The scalloped oval is from Twinkle Toes and the oval is from Art Philosophy
 The sentiment is from Joy's Life It's All Fall Puns set! Isn't it a-maize-ing! ;) 

Have a fun, crafty day!

Halloween Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Halloween Blog Hop! You should have arrived from Jennie's blog, Earthy Scrap. If you just happened to stop by make sure you start at Joy's blog, Joy's Life. You don't want to miss a  thing! So grab a drink and enjoy these Halloween projects we have for you! 

Here's a Halloween card I made. :o)
I usually stick with the A2 cards, but this time I did not want to cover the paper or have to make the cut smaller. The card measures 5.5 in. x 5.5 in. 
The sentiment is from Joy's Life stamps, it's called Halloween Puns. You absolutely have to get it for your Halloween projects! [ Tip: You can actually use this set throughout the ENTIRE year ;) ] 
 This cut is from the Happy Hauntings cartridge. For the bird, I cut it in green paper and then added Lime Green stickles to give it that glittery look. 
 The crinkle ribbon is from 3 Girl Jam (Antique White) and the twine is from The Twinery. The button is just from my stash. 
  All of the paper is from Michael's Recollection's Midnight Magic stack. 
 I added zots to the frame to give it some dimension. 

Blog Candy!

Halloween Treat Box

Hi everyone! Can you believe it's already OCTOBER!?!  Halloween will be here in no time! With that said, this week we will be showing you Halloween Treat projects over at Joy's Life DT! Hopefully they inspire you to get a head start on your Halloween creations. :) 
I used my trusty Cricut Artiste cartridge. The pumpkin is from the Disney Happily Ever After cartridge (under the icon feature). 
 For my project, I used the Halloween Puns stamp set.  I love this set because it's so versatile! You better get yours HERE soon so you have enough time to create your Halloween projects :o) 
Here's a side view of my treat box. The pumpkin chandelier pattern paper is from Michael's Recollection's Midnight Magic stack. 
The face on the pumpkin is from Peachy Keen's Monster Mash face assortment.  I'm not sure if you can see it, but the pumpkin is on some zots for added dimension.
