"When it Rains" (Z4424 stamps with dies or D2083 stamp set only) has a variety of sentiments that can offer encouragement.  And it lends itself to paper piecing, which I did on both the umbrella and boots on the card above.  The umbrella paper is from the March/April Mix-In papers (X9038) and I used some scraps from my stash for the boots - but did add some clear shimmer brush to the paper before stamping!

The Dots Slimline Die (Z3993) provided the background for this card.  I felt those dots gave the feel of the rain falling!  Glacier cardstock was a good match to the beautiful pattern paper from the "In Full Bloom " paper suite (X7279S) - available with or without a coordinating sticker sheet.  A little lagoon cardstock and silver glitter paper give a pop of color to this background. 

I used glacier ink and stamped white cardstock with one of the images from the Imperfectly Perfect Patterns stamp set (D2051), then used charcoal ink to stamp the puddle before fussy-cutting.  Another image from this set was used for the sentiment strip.  A few sequins and clear sparkles complete the project!

This card is a part of the March/April 2022 Card Class (or kit if you want it mailed).  Check out this link to find out the details of getting this and three more cards in your mailbox.
