Joy’s Life Cri-kits BLOG HOP

Welcome to the Joy’s Life Cri-Kit  BLOG HOP.

I have made a gorgeous card to inspire you how to use these fun pens with your electronic cutting machines.

Here is the card I made which is a mixture of using the Cri-Kit pens and and then I also used a die cut butterfly to accentuate the colored design.

I am using the stamp set called Sweet Popsicle Puns.

 The drawn butterfly design is from the Art Philosophy Cartridge.

 The die cut butterflies are fro Cheery Lynn Designs.

 I had so much fun this week learning how to use the pen in my Cricut Expression.  The Cri-Kit pens open up a whole new world of possibilities.  I can’t wait to keep trying more things with the many different colors I have.

I used the Glitter Pen set to color in the butterfly and WOW, do those glitter pens shimmer!

I hope you have enjoyed my card, since it is late and I did not have time to get together any Blog Candy…

A card with a TREAT inside

Hi everyone, I’m here with my post for Joy’s Life.com.

All of us on the design team have all been focusing on how to use the different craft containers that you can find on the Product page on Joy’s Life.com.

So today I am using one of the mixed sized tubes and also some of the sentiments from Sweet Popsicle Puns.

Here is the front of the card.

 

 

A close up of the sentiment on the card front.

 

 

From the side you can see the tube filled with candy..

 

 

When you open the card you can see the surprise inside.

 

 

Doesn’t that make and extra special card?

 

 

I love using the stamps here and there.

 

 

Here is one last look at the card, the cute little girl is from one of my Mary Engelbreit calendar pages.

 

 

All of my papers are from Canvas Corp, ahhh how I love Canvas Corp papers!!!

That is my card for today!  I hope you enjoyed it.

One Of A Kind Sweetness

Hello and Happy Monday.

I am here with my last post for July for Joy’s Life.com and we have been using a couple of different stamp sets.

I choose to use Sweet Popsicle Puns.

When I first got this set, I was so excited.  I mean could this set be any cuter?

For this card, I started my taking 2 of the Popsicle stamps and stamped them in 2 different colors. You can see the idea was to have 3 identical and 1 different than the other 3.

Then I embossed the phrase “you’re one of a kind” in black and ruffled some crepe paper behind the mounted phrase to make the phrase really stand out.

A couple of of special embellishments here and there really make this card really extra special.

I love the whimsical polka dots and color scheme, don’t you??

 

Well, are you ready for the new week and the new month?  Brace yourself, both are upon us!!
