Storybook Badger Birthday - Stampin' Up! Storybook Moments DSP

   This is one of those cards that started out completely different and ended up not using much of any of the original elements!  I think maybe the card base and sentiment lol!  Sometimes it works out like that.  I took advantage of the great die cuts that come in the Storybook Moments DSP to create this little scene.

  This is a sweet little card in some soft nature-y colors.  I start with a Boho Blue card base for this one.  And just a quick note; the 2023-2025 In Colors of which Boho Blue is a part of will be retiring at the end of April so if this is a color you want but don't have or is a color that you love and use all the time you'll want to order/restock soon before the mad rush starts!

  I added an embossed strip of Mossy Meadow to the center.  The Eyelet embossing folder makes a nice sweet pattern for this style card. 

  Next I used one of the cute pre-designed panels that are part of this pack of DSP.  One side has a regular full page vine pattern but the opposite side has 11 individual panels that can be cut apart and used as layers on your card or scrapbook page.  I chose this one with the blues and greens and rounded the two top corners to soften it just a bit with all the other straight edges that were coming together already.

  I added my 3 die cut images to make a little scene and I popped the little butterfly on a mini dimensional.  I used the sentiment strip to make a base for the badger and plant to be adhered over so they wouldn't look like they were just floating.

  For embellishments I added a retired scalloped lace trim bow and now that I'm thinking this might be a good guy birthday card I may change it out to something a little more masculine like twine or linen thread.  And some Crushed Curry Faux Glass dots are added to highlight the sentiment strip.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
