Rainbows, Rubber Boots and Butterflies!

Each week I've been sharing an Paper Pumpkin Alternate card made with the March 2020 kit called No Matter The Weather. I actually finished the kit back in March but spread out sharing the cards so my posts didn't all end up looking the same, since I used the same rainbow patterned paper for a lot of the alternate cards. Today I'm sharing a shaker card made with items from the kit and my craft room. I think this is one of my favourites!

Using Karen Burniston's Happy Spring attached to the back of the shaker, I added some fun spring type filler and created my shaker with the rainbow frame. On top of the acetate, I added a couple of stencilled butterflies and one of the colourful rubber boot pieces from the Paper Pumpkin kit.

Here is a look at the inside, using patterned paper and gold foiled elements from a retired Stampin' Up package. I thought this sentiment was perfect for the card and I can send this out for Happy Mail next year anytime in the Spring!

Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
