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.

  • Split Panel Fun Fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    This card was a big hit on last week’s video! I cased it from my friend Susie Wood who continues to inspire me.

    This card features the Neutral Noel specialty designer series paper and the Shining Stars dies. The graduated panels on the front add a bit of fun to the card layout. It’s another great way to feature your designer paper!

    The Shining Stars dies are just $5 with any Stampin’ Up! order (once your order reaches the $75 mark). There are 23 dies in this set! What a fabulous deal this is! See them here.

    My colors include Secret Sea, Gold and White. Classy and seems to fit these products. The stars were die-cut from the Timeless Metallic specialty paper seen here. It comes with sheets of Gold, Red and Green and is perfect for holiday projects.

    I created a free project sheet you can download or print. Click here to access it. It includes photos, measurements, step by step directions and a list of supplies. Tomorrow I’ll share another version of this card fold.

    And below is the video tutorial for this card and one more version as well.

    I shared this layout in a previous video along with the free project sheet. See that here.

    Today I’m sharing more of this card layout; it’s quick & easy to mass produce lots of cards!

    This pack includes two sheets of printed die-cuts; ready to add to your cards. Love the ease of these!

    I used Blackberry Bliss with Pecan Pie above. The greetings are from the Sunflower . That pretty embossing folder is called Softly Woven and is currently out of stock. Click here to add your email to the notification list when it’s available again.

    Above I used Cajun Craze with Vanilla. The embossing folder is the Tree Ring 3D seen here. It’s discounted and on the last chance list.
