Playing in the Rain Double Z Fold Card




I couldn't pass up playing along with this challenge using the Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain Bundle, Best Day Stamp Set (for the sentiment), and Rain or Shine DSP to create my Double Z Fold birthday card.

I began with my back card base using Old Olive cardstock and the front card base using Mango Melody cardstock.

On the Basic White background cardstock, color was added with blending brushes and Balmy Blue & Old Olive inks, leaving the center white.
The sentiment is from Best Day Stamp set, stamped using Old Olive onto Basic White cardstock, trimmed and flagged on the right side.

Two bunnies were die cut from the Rain or Shine DSP, one added with adhesive and the other with dimensionals.
The flower image was stamped using Memento ink and colored with Balmy Blue, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive Stampin' Blends markers, and die cut.
Wink of Stella was added on the flowers.

Embellish using Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots.

Two turtles were die cut from the DSP as well and adhered onto the center panel.  Grass was die cut three times and adhered as well.

Color was added on this panel using the same method as above.
The sentiment was stamped using Old Olive ink.

Below the sentiment, I stamped the flower images twice with Memento ink and colored the same as above.  Two frogs were die cut using the Add-On "Sunshine & Smiles" Dies from the 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit.  These frogs can easily be fussy cut as well.
Wink of Stella was added on each of the flowers for a little sparkle.

Here is the card opened up.  Lots of layers and fun on this card with animals two by two!

DSP was also added on the envelope flap.


Thanks so much for stopping by today!

  1. What a wonderful scene you created on your fun fold card. Also a fabulous way to showcase this very versatile set. I love that there is so much detail on the front fold and then just the lineup of smiling frogs on the last. So glad you shared this with us at The Paper Players this week
