Controlfreaks Blog Tour: New Stampin' Up! Creations
June 19, 2012
Welcome to the Control Freaks June 2012 Tour (officially starts June 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 fellow freaker, Lisa Martz's Blog
Our theme for this month is: "New Catalog Creations". Projects featuring stamp sets/accessories from the brand new Stampin' Up! 2012-2013 Annual Catalog. Here we go...
Papillon Potpourri
First on my list was Stampin' Up!'s NEW Elegant Butterfly Punch and matching stamp set, NEW Papillon Potpourri. For the butterfly - all I did was stamp on Pool Party with Pacific Point ink and punch...that's it. So easy!
The cute little doily is from the NEW Large Delicate Doilies Sizzlet...LOVE IT! It has three sizes of doilies - this one being the smallest. Add a birthday greeting for Petite Pairs, punched with 1-1/4" Circle Punch.
The pattern paper is from NEW International Bazaar Designer Series Paper. Colors are Tangerine Tango, Pool Party and Pacific Point. I would have never thought of that combination and I love it!!
Happy Hour
Another first on my list was Stampin' Up!'s NEW Happy Hour stamp set. I can see so many uses for this set and can't wait to play with it some more.
For today, I made a tall glass of lemonade, made with NEW Summer Starfruit and a NEW Midnight Muse umbrella! Hmm...that sounds good. The doily is from the same Delicate Doilies Sizzlet I used on the first card. This is the largest size. The "banner" was cut with the Petal Cone Die.
ALL NEW Paper: Patio Party Designer Series Paper, 2012-2013 Patterns Stack DSP, Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse
How cute is this? I used the same doily and wrapped it around a lemonade packet. Tied it off with the fun NEW 1/4" Stitched White Ribbon. Then finished off with the greeting from the NEW Itty Bitty Banners stamp set, cut with the NEW Bitty Banners Framlit.
Well, that wraps up this stop of the tour. I hope you enjoyed my Stampin' Up! New Catalog Creations. Now on to more from my friend and fellow Control Freak, Barb Mullikin. I'm sure you're gonna love her fabulous projects!
