Welcome to the Tour De Freaks Blog Tour! We are so excited to have you join us today! You are going to love all the wonderful projects these amazing Control Freak stampers have created for you.
You may have just arrived here from the fabulous Mary Brown's Blog. Weren't her projects just amazing! When I first got into Stampin' Up! I discovered some of Mary's cards on the internet. I was in awe of her talent. I had no idea back then that a few years later she would become a dear friend. The friendships I have been blessed with through Stampin' Up! are truly one of my favorite things about being a demonstrator.
Now, we all know how amazingly talented Mary is, but I bet you didn't know that her husband Randy is totally on top of the new stamping color trends! Randy was wearing a Rich Razzleberry and Soft Suede shirt when we were in Hawaii this past March! Can you believe that? The new In Colors weren't even out yet! lol
You will recognize the set I used for this scrapbook page, For All You Do, is quickly becoming one of my favorite sets. I stamped the flowers in Crushed Curry, Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink. I used all Textured Card Stock in the new In Colors for the page, Rich Razzleberry, Crushed Curry and Soft Suede. The Designer Series Paper is Razzleberry Lemonade. I also used some of the gorgeous new Polka Dot Grosgrain ribbon in Rich Razzleberry and Soft Suede. I actually turned the ribbon over so that you can't see the polka dots! It's like having two ribbons in one!!
My next project features the brand new On a Pedestal Stamp set. This is a fantastic set for all your birthday and celebration cards. I paired Melon Mambo and Chocolate Chip card stock, ink, ribbon and Designer Series Paper to create this card. The two scallop circles on the right side of the card were left blank so that I could write a greeting.
It's never too early to get started on those Christmas projects! Stampin' Up! has a fantastic new hostess set called Christmas Punch. This great set coordinates with a number of Stampin' Up! punches. Christmas tag making will be a breeze this year! The only way to get this set is to host a workshop, so call your favorite Stampin' Up! demo and book yours today!
I found these great snowman tubes at Winners 8 months ago. Each one has a different Hot Chocolate topping. I paired them with a matching Hot Chocolate Slider. I used Ballet Blue, Green Galore and Real Red card stock and Classic Ink. I added a little Basic Black card stock and white dots made with the white gel pen to make the images pop.
Are you ready to see the amazing creations our next Control Freak Stamper has in store for you? Your next stop on the tour is the very talented Jenn Diercks!
