Playing In The Rain Fun Fold

Mar 31, 2023 | Bundles, Cards, Designer Series Paper, Fun Folds, January-April 2023 Mini Catalog, Playing In The Rain, Rain or Shine Specialty, Tutorials, Video, Whimsical | 0 comments

This week I am featuring a cheerful fun fold card using the Playing In The Rain bundle. The recent class focused on Playing In The Rain Bundle and this is one of the cards participants were able to create. Isn’t that bunny cute! Though the stamp set includes the bunny, this bunny is from the Rain or Shine Designer Series Paper. A coordinating die from the Playing In The Rain dies makes it easy to cut the bunny shape. More of the designer series paper is used for the background prints on the card. Who doesn’t like a cheerful card?!

Cut Dimensions for the Playing In The Rain Fun Fold Card:

Mango Melody Cardstock (Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″, score at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″; 3″ x 4-1/4″; scrap for kite die cut)
Rain or Shine Specialty Designer Series Paper (floral print – 2 pieces cut 2-1/2″ x 4″; checked print 4″ x 5-1/4″ for interior; 2-1/2″ x 6″ for envelope; bunny for die cut)
Basic White Cardstock (2 pieces 2-3/4″ x 4″)
Basic Black Cardstock (scrap 1-1/2″ x 4″ for kite)

Mar 24, 2023 | January-April 2023 Mini Catalog, Playing In The Rain, Rain or Shine Specialty, Shaker Cards, Tutorials, Video | 0 comments

Today’s project is a fun “faux” shaker card featuring the Playing In The Rain Bundle. This easy to assemble shaker card uses a clear envelope instead of window sheets and foam adhesive strips. It’s so easy!!! Trust me – once you make one, you’ll want to create more. In addition to the Playing In The Rain bundle, the coordinating Rain or Shine Specialty Designer Series Paper helps create a playful scene on the card. Be sure to watch the assembly video to learn how to make this fun card.
