The remnant here is really a second generation remnant. You see, I had stamped and embossed the Hero Arts Lattice background on a piece of white and hadn't used it. No, really, it's there. See:
You can also see that at some point I tried to use the embossed background by stamping the Hero Arts Clouds background stamp over the top half of it with Distress Broken China. Unfortunately I missed most of the center section, so I set it aside again, thus making it a second generation remnant.
Tonight I grabbed it and decided it just needed a large sentiment to mask the unstamped part, so only the edges would show and it would look like I meant to do that.
Here it is again, since I've blathered at you past the fold:
I added a piece of washi tape as a border between the stamped and unstamped sections, colored the SU sentiment with the (mostly) same colors, and went overboard and added twine in all three colors, too. I think it will pass for a boy's birthday card, don't you?
Okay, I'm going back in to try to maybe pack some stuff, unless I'm distracted by another UFO that needs some love.
Thanks for stopping by!

I think it's perfect for a boy card - and the twine was just the right touch. Loving that particular washi too!
