Tab Control Data Binding

I have a tab control as follows and the ItemSource is Binded to a Dictionary.

<TabControl ItemsSource="{Binding Dict}" SelectedValuePath="Key" SelectedValue="{Binding SelectedValue}" >
    <TabControl.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <Label Content="{Binding Key}" />
                <Button Content="X" Command="{Binding CloseTabCommand}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </TabControl.ItemTemplate>
    <TabControl.ContentTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel>
                <Label Content="{Binding Value}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </TabControl.ContentTemplate>
</TabControl>

<TabControl ItemsSource="{Binding Dict}" SelectedValuePath="Key" SelectedValue="{Binding SelectedValue}" >
    <TabControl.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <Label Content="{Binding Key}" />
                <Button Content="X" Command="{Binding CloseTabCommand}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </TabControl.ItemTemplate>
    <TabControl.ContentTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel>
                <Label Content="{Binding Value}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </TabControl.ContentTemplate>
</TabControl>

How do I get the tab control to pass the value of the Dictionary to the ItemTemplate and ContentTemplate instead of a KeyValuePair? Also another similar question that I have is that, is it possible to databind the Value or Key of a KeyValuePair to a datatemplate for example, and the child elements of that DataTemplate would be able to reference the properties the of Value instead of Value.PropertyName

Nvm I solved it by Databinding the Value of the KeyValuePair to the DataContext of the Stack panel
