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.

  • Peaceful Nativity WOW card


    Look what happens when you combine a beautiful background with the Nativity Dies?!  

    Candace created this gorgeous card for our October Christmas cards swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  She is a master at sponging backgrounds.  I believe she used Pacific Point here.  She simply added a greeting (from For Unto Us set) embossed in Silver and the pretty scenic die-cuts in Black.  

    Click here to see the For Unto Us stamp set and here for the Peaceful Nativity bundle. 

    More Team swaps tomorrow!

  • Curvy Celebrations!! Woo hoo; it’s available today!


     

    Stampin' Up! is releasing brand new product today!!  Most of these Curvy Celebration items are from the upcoming spring catalog!  Demonstrators could pre-order these items early but now you can get them too.

    In fact you can get all of this for $70.50!   

    See them all here.

    I love these products so much I'm giving away a huge 22 project PDF tutorial to everyone who either purchases any of these items from me or places an online order in my store. 


    I also joined a few online swaps with these products; here's one of my favorites!


    I chose to use two of the colors in the Classic Christmas 6" designer paper pack; Cherry Cobbler & Sahara Sand.  I cut 3/4" long strips and adhered them to a 5 1/4" X 4" piece of White CS.  Then I used the dotted, curvy die to cut about 4" down from the top.  Then I turned the die over to cut the other end and trimmed it to fit the card. 

    The greeting is from the Quite Curvy stamp set which is available in the bundle at 10% off.   


    Get it whole bundle and I'll send you a free Winter Snow embossing folder

    and the 22 project PDF tutorial too!

  • Festive Corners Triangle Christmas Tree Card


    Look at this cool swap card Paula made using the Festive Corners stamp set seen here and the Stitched Triangle dies! 

    She used Pear Pizzazz, Real Red & Mossy Meadow card stock and the classic Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper.  And she saved paper by cutting out the DSP triangles from her large designer paper layer (behind the White CS).  I love that!!

    Check out the Triangle Dies here and the Heartwarming Hugs DSP here. 

    I'll be sharing lots of my Team swaps this week; stay tuned!
