During Stampin’ Up!’s SaleABration promotion (through February 28), you can earn nine different items free with minimum purchases. This includes five exclusive stamp sets and four packages of Designer Series Papers.
Today, I’m sharing card samples created with the Dainty Flowers 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. It offers two each of six, double-sided designs. The coordinating colors include: Blushing Bride, Crushed Curry, Fresh Freesia, Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry, and Starry Sky. Earn it free with a $50 purchase before tax and shipping. I know I need more than one package! In addition, this patterned paper coordinates with the Dainty Delights Bundle found on page 55 of Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog.
What’s more, this paper is absolutely gorgeous. I feel it’s a paper that doesn’t need a lot of images. Just let the designs do the work for you.
That’s what I’ve done with these handmade greeting cards. The card featured at the top of the post includes a sentiment (from the Shaded Summer stamp set) and some ribbon (Starry Sky 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon). Doesn’t that paper just speak for itself?

Silly Goose Card Samples
As a demonstrator, I got the opportunity to preorder from the new mini catalog. I chose a number of fun things, but the Silly Goose stamp set caught my eye because I have a friend with the last name of Goos, and her birthday is this month. Today, I share a couple of cards I created for the set. Click here to see another post with other samples.
In addition to this fun set, I used the Day at the Farm 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. Earn it free with a minimum $50 order before tax and shipping during SaleABration. The fun designs go perfectly with the goose images.
One item to note: The Silly Goose stamp set is available in both the clear photopolymer style and the rubber cling style for the same price. When ordering this set (and a handful of others in the new catalog), be sure to watch for these designations in the description. If you’re unsure, please contact me.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog today. I’m so excited about the new catalog and SaleABration. I look forward to sharing many other samles in the coming months.

Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog and SaleABration promotion go live Thursday, January 5. It’s exciting to purchase brand-new paper crafting products. This 90-page catalog offers great new stamp sets, coordinating dies, punches, Designer Series Paper, ribbon, and jewels and more.
Catalogs are on the way (or already arrived) for those who have shopped with me recently. Don’t have a current demonstrator? Contact me and I’ll get paper copies of the catalogs in the mail to you.
As a demonstrator, I was able to order early and bought the Silly Goose stamp set. My friend — with the last name of Goos — celebrates her birthday this month. I created a variety of cards to give as a gift. The sayings and images are just so cute!
This week, I’ll share samples of the cards I made for her.
Silly Goose Card Samples
In addition to the Silly Goose stamp set, I used the Day at the Farm 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper for both of these cards. Earn this paper free during SaleABration with a $50 order before tax and shipping. (Just a note: the paper coordinates with the On the Farm Bundle in the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog.) But I feel these farm and country images pair well with the Silly Goose stamp set, too.
It’s easy to add just a little bit of color to the images with Stampin’ Up!’s Stampin’ Blends and Stampin’ Writer Markers. These clean and simple cards make a fun gift.
