Fun Stampers Journey April Kit of the Month

Hi all!!

Here are the cards that I've created using this months Kit from Fun Stampers Journey.  I am really enjoying these kits and I look forward to receiving the new one every month!

This month's kit features a couple of super cute kiddos ready to go splashing in some puddles!  There are also stamps for a fluffy cloud and a bundle of raindrops which are perfect for those us living in rainy Washington State!  The sentiments are wonderful as well!  "Hello Sunshine" adding a sunny lining to the rainy clouds and the "You are my sunshine when skies are gray" fits the stamps just right!

Here are the 4 cards that I made using the detailed instructions that came with all of the precut papers and embellishments.

This is the first card that I made from the kit.  I love the backgrounds that are created with the included stamps.  The sentiment is fun and colorful.

 The second card uses such bright, happy colors!  I also love the sequin "raindrops" dancing around the sweet girls umbrella.

The third card has such a fun design, it just makes me smile!  All of those falling umbrellas and the sweet sentiment are sure to cheer anyone up!

This last card features the sweet boy stamp, ready to float his boat in a big puddle.  This one has a great layout that adds a fun and sassy feel to the funky colors.

I love how each of these cards turned out.  Even though they are following the directions included in the kit, they still feel like cards made by me.

I can't wait to see the May KOTM.. it should be here soon!

Go visit Kristy's Bloomin' Journey to sign up for your own KOTM - if you love this April Kit, you only have a few more days to have it delivered to your door!

Have Fun!

Hi there!

Here's a cute little card that I made using the new MFT stamps that I ordered last month.  I really, really love stamps that have coordinating dies!!

I love the cute Birdie Brown - You Make My Tail Wag stamp set!  There are so many cute doggies to choose from and all of their adorable accessories, too!  I chose to use the hydrant of course, because it goes so well with the sentiment.  I added glaze to the hydrant, and to my cute puppies nose, as well.  I used the Stitched Speech Bubble die set to create my sentiment.  The papers all came from my stash of paper and I used my Blendabilities to color my doggie.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
