Lots to see in this month’s Control Freak’s Blog hop!


The theme for February's Blog Hop is projects for our friends! 

There's a lot of talent in the Control Freaks group; be sure to click on each icon at the end of each post to see it all.   

If you just stopped in from Bree's blog I'm sure you enjoyed her projects. She is uber creative!

My first card features the Floating Technique. It gives the illusion that your paper is floating on the card.  

I adhered random sizes of card stock strips onto a piece of Window Sheet and used our largest circle in the Layering Circles dies  to die-cut it out.  I've been making monochromatic cards lately and chose my favorite blue/green hues of Bermuda Bay, Pool Party & Coastal Cabana.  

Details:

  • This circle is added with Stampin' Dimensionals onto White CS that's been embossed with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. 
  • The 'Thanks' is made with our Amazing Thanks dies from the January-June catalog. 
  • The 'Friend' greeting was fussy cut from the Special Moments stamp set.
  • Those pretty rhinestones are from a new release coming out in March called the Wave Collection.  Rhinestones in blues & greens!!

I recently made a card with the Hello Ladybug using Magenta Madness with Black and wanted to try it out with Coastal Cabana too. I found out that our new Supple Shimmer specialty paper works great for wings! It's pretty & iridescent.


It's also what I like to call Black & White with a 'pop' of color.  A bit of black on a card makes other colors 'show up' and be noticed. 

This card is an easy fun fold.  Turn any basic card into a fun fold with these measurements: 

  • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”, score at 2 1/8” & 4 ¼”
  • White (X 2) 3 ½” X 4 ¾”
  • 3 ¾” X 5” Black


The stamped images are all from the Hello Ladybug stamp set.  It's in a bundle with the punch at 10% off when purchased together.

  • More New Catalog Product displays


    A few week's ago I held my Holiday Catalog open house and I shared a few of the displays earlier. Today I'll share the rest for you. 

     

    The Season of Elegance suite includes two bundles, the designer paper, an embossing folder, gems and ribbon.  See it all here. 

    The Season of Elegance specialty designer paper was a top seller at the event.  It's stunning! See it here online.

    I created a display for the Christmas Label dies that coordinates with the bundle seen here.  I love these so much!  The dies aren't just for the Holidays! 

    And here are the Peaceful Season dies at are part of the bundle seen here: 

    Next are the Reindeer Days & Sentimental Christmas displays: 

    Most of these are swaps I received; only the two on the right lower edge are mine.  I love swapping – especially to get samples of products I didn't buy and to show styles that are different from mine. 

    Here's a close up of the last display board – Snowy Scenes Suite, Humble Home bundle & Take a Bow DSP:

    See all of the new Holiday catalog products here. There's lots of new & exciting stuff!

  • Stunning Magnolia Mood card


    My friend and team member Bobby sent me this gorgeous card for my birthday.  

    It's Black, White & Basic Gray with just a hint of yellow.  That gorgeous Black die-cut behind the flower adds fabulous detail. The White layer is textured with the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder seen here.

  • Pumpkin Patch pop-up Fun Fold card


    Paula made this super special fun-fold card for our September Team card swap: 

    Can you see how the framed scene is lowering as the card is opened?  She cased this idea from Creating with Kristina who cased it from Sharon Armstrong.  

    The colors are Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Mossy Meadow and White. Her DSP is from the Take to the Sky pack. The dies to create the frame are called Countryside Corners dies and can be seen here. 

    Isn't that neat?!  It's been awhile since I've made one of these types of cards but her card inspires me to make one.  

    This stamp set is called Pumpkin Patch and is part of our Online Exclusives.  See it here. 

    If you look closely at the stamped scene you can tell that she masked her pumpkins & fence. Her sponged sky & grass sure add to the realistic scene!  So well done!
