Rainy days are better with you! What a special card for any special person who brightens up your rainy days! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
It’s the talented Joanne’s turn to host our monthly sketch challenge. What a wonderful sketch she has for us! I know it is one that I will be using often. While I opted to accent my sentiment with cute critters, I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
I LOVE it when the dies in a bundle can be used with images in the coordinating designer series paper. It makes it so easy to create quick and fabulous cards. In this case, the adorable fox and rabbit were die cut from the Rain or Shine designer series paper. It doesn’t get any easier! And the delightful raindrop background for these little critters is just one of the other patterns included in the package. How fun!

Oh my goodness! Who knew a rainy day could be so stinking adorable?! It rained here all week and was 32 degrees, too. That was NOT cute. Especially the dog prints all over my floors. I know you can relate. But these little critters just make me smile. This is such a fun card, Ann!
Hello, Ann – what a cute card! I love the rainy background paper and little clear dot embellishments!
Ann, this is the sweetest card. These little critters are so fun jumping in the puddles. So many fabulous details in this great creation! Your card made me smile! Have a great weekend, My Friend!
Love this Ann – it reminds me of when my kids were small and we used to grab our wellies and umbrellas and play in the puddles when it rained! I too am a fan of dies that fit DSP – it’s such fun cutting up paper lol! This is just the sweetest take on my sketch.
Ann, your card makes me want to go jump in puddles! Such a fun card and your little critters are adorable. Fabulous use of the sketch

Ann, You made such a cute card. That suite of products is one of my all-time favorites. Suzy
Absolutely adorable. Love this card!
This is super cute! I love the way you put it together.
So cute. Spring and it’s rainy weather will soon be here! (I hope!) It was 10 degrees here this morning. But, I’m sure I’ll be using cards like this for my “littles'” cards in a couple months.
Your little critters don’t seem to mind the rain at all! They’re just adorable! Great way to interpret the sketch!
Wow, Ann! This is just adorable! Wonderful to see how easily the DSP and dies work together. This card would brighten my day and bring smiles for sure!
Such a cute card. Gotta love them little critters. They are adorable.
Good tip! That card is very cute – quite out of the box for you.
