I love the new Playing in the Rain Bundle from Stampin’ Up’s new Spring 2023 catalog. They had me at “Oh Happy Day” which is one of the sentiments in this set. There’s a great version of “Oh Happy Day” sung by Reba McEntire. If you enjoy making bright and happy cards like I do, this might be the Bundle for you. 🙂 If you don’t already have a demonstrator, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com if you’d like me to send you the new catalog.

I’m participating in Kylie’s monthly International Blog Highlights contest and the top 10 vote winners get to participate in an International Blog Hop. Would you consider taking a moment and voting for my card? I’d really appreciate it! My card is #8.

The card folds nicely to be sent in a regular A2 envelope.

I made the card again with the brown bunny during my live video last week. You can watch the video showing how to make this card here.

This easel card was also made with the Playing in the Rain Bundle. I love that it looks like I paper pieced the bunny’s shirt when really I just used the die and cut out the bunny. The Designer Series Paper (DSP) did all the work for me.

Absolutely adore this card. Had to try it immediately! Thank you, thank you.
Such a cute fun fold. Love the adorable little critters and the beautiful color combination.
Cute fun fold, happy little bunny!
Fun card Beth, love these little guys, great colour combo!
So cute. Love the bunny with his happy dance about the rain. But, the turtle is my favorite with his little expression and flowers. Thanks for a close up of the embossing piece. I have EF but always too lazy to use them. Such a fun and festive card. Gotta check out your video. I always learn something new.
Such a HAPPY card! very cute!
