Stampin’ Up! Silly Goose

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? I had a lot of fun at my workshop stamping along and showing others how to make the cards I designed. I believe the ladies that were there enjoyed stamping together too.

I have a quick CAS card for you today playing with product from the Annual Catalog, January-April Mini Catalog and Online Exclusive. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made my card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Silly Goose Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Everyday Details Dies and Online Exclusive Hello, Irresistible 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #624.

Stampin' Up! Silly Goose 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by using the Everyday Details Dies and cutting the rick rack on a Basic White card front. I stamped the goose image from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the rick rack.

I colored their feet and beaks using Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above the image.

I adhered 2 strips of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side and bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. I added a Daffodil Delight Glossy Dot Assortment by the sentiment.

On the inside, I stamped the goose image from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the image using Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the bottom of the panel using the rick rack die from the Every Day Details Dies. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the goose image and sentiment from the Silly Goose stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front.
