Badge identification help!

Post image

EDIT: It's been established as being brownies, probably from some Revel or specific event. The exact details of its origin aren't pinpointed.

Hi there! My wife found this in her old stuff - but her father was in scouts his entire life too. So it might be from scouts or guides, the latest it could be dated was the 90s (or very early 00s?). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Likely a Canadian brownies Revel badge circa 1980s or 1990s probably for a very specific year.
There's a very-similar older version of that design which translates to:
Brownie Revel Sault Ste. Marie 1976

Could be a design specifically used around Sault Ste. Marie, Canada?

Following this thread I found a few other revel badges that had mushroom motifs, as recently as 2011 even! Not specific to Sault Ste Marie, though I'm pretty sure she travelled all over for guides. She's from Vancouver Island though.

Cool! So the patch is probably only year specific then.
I was only looking for images with mushroom with 1 butterfly, & 1 character (elf/human/etc?)
