Control Freak Sale-a-Bration Tour: Bloomin' Marvelous

Welcome to the Control Freaks January 2013 Tour (officially starts January 20th, but should be live by 8:00pm central time Jan 19th- so be sure to stop back to take the full tour). We are thrilled to have you join us today. Our tour features some of your favorite Control Freaks Stampers sharing projects made with Stampin' Up! products. In fact, you may have just come from Patty Bennett's Blog

Our theme for this month is: "Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration Creations".  

My projects feature the awesome FREE Sale-a-Bration stamp set (with a $50 order), Bloomin' Marvelous (set of 8).  I love that there is 4 images and 4 greetings in this set...everything you need, all in one marvelous stamp set!

Bloomin' Marvelous Butterfly Card

Isn't this stinkin' cute?!  I was giddy when I discovered the Bloomin' Marvelous butterfly image fits the brand new Bitty Butterfly punch (from the 2013 Spring Catalog) - woohoo!  I paired it with the Elegant Butterfly Punch and the Bird Builder Punch to create the beautiful butterfly and leaves.  Love it!!

Two Tags Treat Holder

My next project is a little treat holder made with the Two Tags Die.  It holds a Twix Bar - one of my favorites!

Introducing: Dude, You're Welcome Masculine Card Kits!

You asked, and Stampin' Up! listened! I'm excited to introduce the new, very manly stamping kit: the Dude, You're Welcome! Kit.

Sometimes guys don't always have the easiest time expressing themselves, but with the new Dude, You're Welcome! kit, they'll have:

• Four wood-mount stamps (double-mounted) with the perfect sentiment for every
  occasion
• Twelve 4" x 6" postcards in four different (manly) colors
• Twelve gray envelopes
• A Basic Gray Classic Stampin’ Pad
• An instructional guide (for the most novice stamper!)

Basically, the kit includes everything a dude needs to create the perfect manly card that any woman would adore, all packaged in an appropriately masculine box.  I know my husband is getting one!
