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.

It’s hard to believe 2023 is just around the corner! Let’s celebrate with some new year cards.
I don’t send a lot of new year cards. But I like to have them on hand as last-minute replies to Christmas cards received and to use as thank-you notes. Stampin’ Up!’s Brightest Glow stamp set has the perfect “Happy New Year” sentiment.
I created three different cards with that same sentiment — two on this post and one last week. Click here to see the other design that uses the Cracker & Treat Box Dies and the Split Card Texture Dies. The Brightest Glow stamp set is currently available in Stampin’ Up!’s July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. Buy it now with the Labels Aglow Dies as a bundle and save 10 percent. Just a note: It will be carrying over and available next year.
About the Rays of Light Card
The card featured at the top of the post uses the Rays of Light stamp embossed with gold heat embossing as the background.
Very Vanilla card stock measuring 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ embossed in gold with Rays of Light
Black card stock measures 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″
Very Vanilla card stock measuring 5 1/4″ x 4″ embossed with Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder
Sentiment heat embossed with gold and die cut with circle from Labels Aglow Dies
The card below uses some brand-new product that will be available beginning January 5, 2023, in Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. The Alphabet A’ La Mode Dies include dies for a full alphabet and numbers. These are an exciting addition to the paper crafting product line up.
Be sure to watch the video to hear a discussion of these handmade new year cards. I just love the look of the gold heat embossing combined with the Gold Foil Sheets and black card stock.
