Do you have someone in your life, who no matter the weather, is with you all the way? Oh my gosh, I sure do, and this card is for her. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, sweet Claire has such a timely challenge for us: Clean and Simple April Showers!
By Clean and Simple, The Paper Players mean cards that:
- Have minimal layers and embellishments
- Have plenty of open space
- Are simple and uncluttered
We can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
What’s more fun than polka-dotted rain boots? I stamped the boots directly onto Flowering Fields designer series paper, and die cut them out. The Flowering Rain Boots bundle is packed with fun images and dies. I elected to fill my boots with tulips. The set does have a “Rain or Shine” sentiment which I could have used, but I felt that the sentiment from the March 2020 Paper Pumpkin suited my intended recipient and situation better.
To download the free step-by-step tutorial for today’s No Matter the Weather card, which includes all the paper measurements and all of the current products used, please click on the button below. For every card which has been posted on my blog since 2019, there is a free tutorial.

Notes from Nueve
Hey, everyone! It’s me, Nueve! I got news. Sixxy is home from class, and so is Uncle Q, at least for awhile. Now that they are home, I don’t have to play so much with my mom. She was kind of slow when we played chase, but she tried.
She would never grab the tug in her mouf, like Sixxy and Uncle Q do. I thought maybe Mom didn’t know she was ‘posed to put it in her mouf and pull on it. I tried to help her out by sticking it in her face. But it didn’t work.
I thought maybe she would like to play with the dumb bell. It fits my mouf really good. But, Mom didn’t want to put it in her mouf, either. I don’t get why she doesn’t put toys in her mouf. She just holds them in her hands. I think it’s ’cause she has ‘posable thumbs, so her hands work better than mine. But, I have a better mouf than her.
‘Cause I was a good boy while Sixxy was away, Mom bought me a new collar. It’s red and it’s got stars on it. It was made by the same person who made Sixxy’s collar.
Sixxy’s got jewels on her collar. It’s pink. Sixxy likes girly things, so her collar is girly.
Poor Uncle Q doesn’t have a pretty collar like me or Sixxy. He just has a black danbana.
He helped me and Sixxy guard the neighborhood and watch for squirrels and the Easter bunny. We did a really good job. We must have sat there guarding for hours. But, it’s part of the job. We are working dogs, and I am the best. I have stars on my collar. I am Good Boy Nueve!
