Scrapbooking Inspired Baby Boy Card

by Mariana
(Australia, Melbourne)

To make this card it so basic, I was actually inspired by looking at a Scrapbook Magazine, & thought how nice for a front cover for a Boy card.

I used Black, Lime Green, Blue & Light Blue Card stock, Double Sided Tape, Rub-Ons, Stickers and Embellishments.

Fold your desired card size from black paper, stick the Green onto the black card slightly smaller in size, then cut out 3 thin strips of black and 2 thin light blue strips.

Cut 2 odd shape out of the blue and place on top of the green then add your thin strips to cover the edge of the blue paper.

Then add Baby Embellishments, stickers & rub ons.
I also printed out baby's name on blue card, cut it out into individual squares & placed it on the bottom of card.

Then print a phrase or words you want to add first on normal printer paper before using your card paper so you can measure out & decide the size and style of your text. Then stick your blue paper on top of the printed phrase with tape and re print it again this time it will print on your selected paper.

Cut it out exactly to size and stick on top of the blue paper that's already there.

That is it. Took me about an 1hr because I was playing around with the design of it trying different styles of how to place paper so it wouldn't be exactly like the scrapbook page.

Hope you Like it & you found my instructions easy (I didn't hehe)
