Baby Congrats

The theme for the current Lawn Fawnatics challenge is "oh, baby."  I turned to a classic Lawn Fawn stamp set--Plus One--for my simple baby design.

I added just a bit of color to the stork image using Copic markers, then paper pieced the stork's bundle using a scrap of floral patterned paper.  The bird was fussy cut by hand and set aside until I finished arranging the rest of the elements on the cardfront.  To go with the green patterned paper I used on the bundle, I adhered a wide green cardstock strip to the right side of a blue card base. The strip was edged with a bit of green pom pom trim on the top and a coordinating narrow strip of green cardstock on the bottom.  A white cloud, die cut with one of the cloud dies from the Spring Shower die set, was adhered to the left end of the green strip.  The stork image was added on top using foam tape for dimension.  I stamped the set's "congrats" sentiment to the right of the image in green ink.  A trio of aqua sequins arranged around the bird and cloud completed the design.
