New Catalog Love ~ Control Freaks June 2021

The new Annual Catalog has been live for a little over a month now and the Control Freaks crew is ready to share some of our favorites!
You may have made your way here from our friend Melissa AKA The Stamp Doc or you might just be starting the hop...either way, keep on going until you make your way through!  You won't want to miss a single thing!
Summer is officially here and I am oh-so-ready!  Today's cards are inspired by summer-fun colors!

I am a sucker for fun fonts, so you can guarantee that Biggest Wish caught my eye right away!  The big block fonts with the scripty fonts is SO GOOD!  I paired this fun new stamp set up with the returning Sweet Ice Cream to create a yummy Hello Summer card. 
I stamped the blocky HELLO in Pool Party (stamped off), then added a rainbow of tasty popsicles.  A scripty black hello and some bold die cut SUMMER letters helped to make the perfect card to kick off summer!  A little splash of bling is always a good thing too!
Sticking with the same summer-fun color combo, I inked up the adorable Turtle Friends stamp set, which I also paired up with Biggest Wish.
This little turtle and all of his friends are just the cutest!  The photopolymer stamp set made adding the party hat and little bird a breeze.  And as you can see, I made good use of some of my paper scraps.  Such a quick and fun way to add some more color to any creation!

I'm so glad to have you hop along with us!  Next up is our other friend Melissa of Rubber Funatics!

Playful Birthday ~ #TGIFC272 Sketch Challenge

Oh goodness...here we are at Friday again!  Summer days always seem to fly by so fast!  I still have a little over 5 weeks left of my break, but I am already not looking forward to going back to work!  I love my job, but I also love having lots of extra creative time, especially when it comes to TGIF Challenges!
We have a great sketch for you to play along with this week!  I can't wait to see all of the creations!
Okay, does anyone else love the Playing With Patterns Designer Series Paper as much as I do?!?  There are some of my favorite colors and the patterns are the best!  I cut out the tag portion of the sketch using the Stitched Nested Labels.  These cute little polka dots reminded me of wrapping paper, so I wrapped them up in the Costal Cabana Playing with Patterns Ribbon Combo Pack. 
I added some detail to the background with the fun new Dainty Diamonds 3D embossing folder.  Happy B-Day was cut out with the awesome new Playful Alphabet dies and the cute sentiment is from the coordinating Pattern Play stamp set.  Of course I had to add a few Playing with Patterns Resin Dots to finish the card off.  I'm gonna need more of those cuties!  

Whether it's your birthday or not, I hope your Friday is filled with all your guilt pleasures!  Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Stamping!
