Control Freaks Tour: Sweet Soiree Suite Inspiration

Welcome to the Control Freaks December 2017. 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, Kelly Acheson's blog.

Our theme for this month is: New Stampin' Up! 2018 Occasions Products

I selected the coming soon – Sweet Soiree Suite!

Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit Mini Gable Box

When I received these Silver Mini Gable Boxes, I was thinking, "Maybe the inside is white?"  Guess what?…they are!  Just gently pull apart one edge and turn it inside out (use tear & tape to re-adhere)!  Though the silver is very nice, the white gives you more options.

Tips for Mini Gable Box

1. Stamps: Cake Soiree
2. Paper:
   • Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper (two of 1-3/4" x 3-3/4" )
   • Marina Mist (two of 1-3/4' x 1-3/4")
   • Whisper White (for greeting)
3. Ink: Marina Mist
4. Markers:  Stampin' Blends (Daffodil Delight and Old Olive combo packs) and Subtles Stampin' Write Marker Marina Mist)

6. Tips:  Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit
   • Color the yellow cake die cut (from kit) with markers
   • Fold 7" of Marina Mist Ribbon in half (from kit) along with other ribbon/trims.  Tie off with Silver Baker's Twine
   • Attach "tassel" of ribbons to greeting with clothespin (from kit)

Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit Card

Measurements for Sweet Soiree Card:

• Berry Burst =  8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base
• Old Olive = 2-3/4" x 4"
• Whisper White = 2-1/2" x 3-3/4"

This card features one of the die cuts from the Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit.  No coloring necessary, as it's already colored for you!  Another new product is the yummy 3/8" Berry Burst Metallic Edge Ribbon (a must-have)!

I'm in love with the Sweet Soiree Suite and I think you will be too come January 3rd (first day of the 2018 Occasions  Catalog)!
