Control Freaks Blog Tour May 2019: Twinkle Twinkle

Welcome to the Control Freaks May 2019. We are thrilled to have you join us on the 20th of each month. 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 my friend, Wendy Weixler's blog.

Our theme for this month is: Goodbye to Old Friends

I'm sharing ideas made with the Twinkle Twinkle Suite

A Star is Born

The Twinkle Twinkle Suite it not just for babies.  It could also be used for dance or piano recitals, band concerts and plays…to recognize the STAR in your family! 

This is the time of year for many of those activities final performances and what a great card to present to your STAR! 

How'd She DO That? Tips for A Star is Born card:

• Stamps: A Little Twinkle
• Paper:
  • Granite Gray (4-1/4" x 11" card base, scrap for punch)
  • Vellum (scrap for punch)
  • Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper – retiring (4" x 5-1/4")
• Ink:  Versamark
• Heat Emboss: Stamp "star" image with Versamark ink, on Vellum.  Cover with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.  Remove excess and melt with Heat Tool
• Other: Embossing Buddy, White Stampin' Emboss Powder, Heat Tool, Starburst Punch, 5/8" White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon, Gray Granite 1/2" Textured Weave Ribbon, Silver Metallic Thread, Metallic Pearls & Stampin' Dimensionals

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
