Welcome to the Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop where we will be travelling through every time zone across the globe. How fun!
 
We are an awesome group of stampers from all over the world who come together the 2nd Wednesday of every month to share some creative inspiration and smiles. You will want to be sure to visit each and every one of us to make sure you see all of the amazing projects.
 
If this is your first time visiting my blog, I am Wendy Lee from Pfafftown, North Carolina and I am happy you are stopping by.
 
This month’s theme is April Showers Bring May Flowers where we create a project that makes us think of SPRING! I hope you enjoy my creation I am sharing with you today!
 

In addition to the projects being inspired by the Spring season, we have a double challenge to use a technique that expresses the joy of the season. Of course I am choosing a fun fold…my fav any season!

For today’s challenge I decided to go with a fast and easy fun fold card that can be used over and over again. I actually made several versions of this project that I shared in my weekly YouTube LIVE. If you want to check them all out, you can watch the video replay HERE.

A few products from the Rain or Shine Suite collection featured on pages 50-51 of the January-April Mini Catalog was my choice for this spring inspired project. For me, the Rain or Shine Specialty pattern paper pack is a must. It makes creating so easy.

Easily add a splash of rain to your projects using the Rain or Shine 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper. This paper has a touch of glossy coating on some designs, giving a realistic rain effect-LOVE THIS!

This paper pack really has what you need to create festive Spring projects…with both soft and bright colors, and fun patterns as well as flowery and rainy designs that can be used as card backgrounds. Use the flower field to set a nature scene and cut out a cute animal playing in the rain to make it the focal point of your projects. Add extra details like an umbrella or a cloud and don’t hesitate to mix, match, and layer as you wish. This fun paper is full of creative possibilities!

Sadly, this amazing paper pack is on the last chance list and only available while supplies last. Be sure to stock up before it’s gone forever! Shop the Last Chance List here.
