House Mouse Puddle Fun Card

I know that a frog and a bunny are unlikely friends, but on this Puddle Fun Card, they make the perfect pair.

I’ve had this Puddle Fun Stamp from House Mouse for many years, and I have made many cards with it.  I never get tired of coloring these sweet critters.  For this card, I chose bright dotted papers from Stampin’ Up.  Just because it’s a Rainy Day card, doesn’t mean that it has to be gray and dreary!

Puddle Fun Card Instructions

1. Stamp the Puddle Fun image on the white cardstock and color.  If you are new to rubber stamping, learn all you need to know by reading How To Use Rubber Stamps.
2. Using the inverted corner round, punch all corners of the white and bright yellow cardstock.  Attach the image to the yellow mat.
3. Using the tape runner adhesive, attached the circle paper to the left side of the teal dotted paper.  Then attach the teal paper to the yellow dotted paper.
4. Tie the teal ribbon around all three layers of paper that you just adhered. I wrapped it twice and tied a knot about 1 1/2″ from the top of the card.  Attach to the base of the card.
5. Using pop dots or dimensional tape, attach the image to the right side of the card.
6. To finish the card, add Star Dust Stickles to the raindrops and the water puddle.

I hope you like this card as much as I liked making it.  I’d love it if you’d share this card with your friends on Pinterest!
