Control Freak Tour: Beau Chateau Inspiration!
May 19, 2012
Welcome to the Control Freaks May 2012 Tour (officially starts May 20th). We are thrilled to have you join us today. Our tour is nice and short and features some of your favorite Control Freaks Stampers sharing projects made with Stampin' Up! products. In fact, you may have just come from my friend and fellow freaker, Barb Mullikin's Blog.
Our theme for this month is: "Going, Going … Almost Gone!" Projects featuring stamp sets/accessories from the Retired Lists (only available until May 31st)
My projects feature the soon-to-be-gone Beau Chateau. Which is actually on sale for only $8.21 (25% off, while supplies last)
Double Pocket Gift Pouch & Mini Cards
This cute little Double Pocket Pouch has so many uses (party favors, co-worker gifts, treat packaging and more)! Plus it's SO quick and easy to do, you'll find yourself wanting to make them for all kinds of occasions. I know you're gonna want to see just how easy they are to make. So, yes I have a video all ready to go and will post it Monday. Be sure to stop back then.

Best Wishes Dove Medallion Card
Beside the Beau Chateau DSP, this card features many beloved products that I will miss. Such as the Medallion Background Stamp, Holiday Windows for the Movers & Shapers Die, and Ribbon (both 5/8" Satin and Chantilly Crochet Trim). However, the one I'll miss the most is my "go-to" greeting stamp set...Sincere Salutations!
I love the way this card turned out. Such a sweet way to say good-bye!
