March 2020 Paper Pumpkin: 5 Alternative Cards for No Matter the Weather Kit

How appropriate that my March 2020 Paper Pumpkin arrived in the middle of a very rainy week! The latest subscription kit from Stampin' Up! is called "No Matter the Weather" is a spring-themed notecard kit that will have you crafting the rain away to brighter days!

I couldn't wait to craft with my kit! I designed five alternative card designs using one set of supplies to make three notecards. I added very minimal cardstock. Most of the pieces are straight from the kit! Which one is your favorite? Leave me a comment and let me know!

Measurements: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Petal Pink Cardstock, 2" x 4-1/4" Envelope Liner, 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" White notecard back

When I designed this card, I stamped the clouds on the notecard and added the rain on the card front. I thought maybe the clouds were too "heavy" and not the right proportion for the boots, so I switched them when I stamped it during my video. I can't decide. Which way do you like it best? Leave me a comment and let me know!

The March 2020 kit marked the 7th anniversary of Paper Pumpkin with a bonus stamp set called Spring Splash! I love the unique and large images in this stamp set and can't wait to create with it! I added the two-step rain boats to the inside of this card.

And I used the bunny image to create this card.

Julie I like the clouds stamped on the card stock and the raindrops on the note card. Looks true to life that way. Why do the creators of Paper Pumpkins continue to make the kits with note cards when everyone turns them into regular A2 size cards? This just really is a pet peeve of mine. I know 5 people that have quit PP because of the note card deals :( Really sad! Thanks for making A2 cards with it.
