Baby Boy Cards

I had so much fun making these Baby Boy Cards!  I just love the color combinations of blue, ivory and black with touches of canvas.  The great thing about the Baby Boy Word patterned paper is that you can cut out individual words and add them in different places to embellish your card.

One of my favorite Canvas Corp products to use is the jute, rope & twine.  As you can see on this card, the jute just helps “tie” the look together.

This card was all about layering elements!  I love using Stampin’ Up’s notebook punch to make the paper look like it was riped out of a notebook.
