Diorama Card

My second eldest grandson turned 18 on May 26.  But I had to wait to post this card I made for him!  He loves to go hunting with my husband, as do several of our other grandsons. 

This card is created using  the Grassy Grove stamps (157836) and Grove dies (157844) to create this diorama card for my grandson. I used Old Olive, Pecan Pie, and  Wild Wheat (NEW 2023 Colors!) card stock for this card.  I also used Pecan Pie and Old Olive Inks.  

The measurements for this card:

    The base is Old Olive 8" x 4 1/4" and scored at 1 1/14", 2 1/2", 5 1/2", and 6 3/4".
    The center section has Wild Wheat 2 7/8" x 4 1/8"  
    (You can also put Wild Wheat on the two outer panels so those pieces would be 1 1/8" x 4 1/8".  I didn't add this because my bridge piece for this card is practically the same height as the base card.)
    Designer Series Paper is  two pieces of 1" x 4" and one piece of 2 3/4" x 4"

    The bridge piece is created with the Grove die and is a piece of  Old Olive 5 1/2" x 3 5/8"

    To stamp the trees and deer, use Basic White 3" x 4" scrap

    The banner for the sentiment is 3/4" x 3" with a banner cut end.

 

What to do with left over Paper Pumpkin scraps?

I finally had some time after rearranging my craft room to make a few cards.  I was inspired by scraps I found in my scrap basket.  First, I used the Split Card dies (retired on May 1, 2023) on some retired Dainty Flowers Designer Series paper to create a background.  Then with some floral scraps from a favorite Paper Pumpkin Kit, I arranged the pieces to coordinate with the DSP.  The two sentiments are from the current stamp set, Chic Seasons.
