I’m back with more Christmas in July inspiration with Stampin’ Up!’s Regal Reindeer Stamp Set and coordinating Reindeer Dies. Find these in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.
This card follows the same basic layout as the cards included in a past post. See them here. In fact, this layout is so versatile and works for any number of stamp sets, sentiments and Designer Series Paper. See another example here.
For this Christmas card, I use the standalone reindeer die instead of the Christmas trees.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you’re inspired to start thinking about creating your own handmade Christmas cards. I often procrastinate and am stressing out in December at the last minute. So these cards will help me get started!
Please let me know if I can help you in any way.

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.

Getting a new stamp set, bundle, or Designer Series Paper is exciting! It’s fun to rip into the package and start creating immediately. But oftentimes, you’re stumped. Just what are you going to do with the supplies you just purchased? Sometimes you head to Pinterest, and sometimes you use Google to help you find samples. Additionally, get other ideas by participating in a card swap.
That’s just one of the fun activities my team of Kim’s Paper Krafters participates in. (Click here to read about the great Starter Kit special and also discover how to become a member of my team.)
Eighteen people participated in our recent swap. The requirements: use current Stampin’ Up! product to create a holiday themed card. I made the card shown above. Be sure to watch the video at the end of this post to see the other seventeen holiday card samples. You’ll get lots of inspiration for your holiday card making — from fun folds and more.
Other ingredients include Stampin’ Up!’s Festive Foils Designer Series Paper, Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder, the Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon, and Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels. I chose a simple design to make 18 cards in preparation for the swap.
