Birthday Card for Boy 01

Birthday Card for Boy is created for my two nephews' upcoming 4th birthday. They are a pair of non-identical twins. They are into robots lately. So yes, it's fantastic that I found a perfect patterned paper that features robots and stuff that's designed for boys.

From one piece of patterned paper, I'm able to come up with two slightly different and yet very boyish-looking cards that I'm hoping will win their hearts over. :-)

For added dimension to the robots, I've added foam pads to make them stand out even more.

If you can source for some patterned papers designed with boys in mind, it'll certainly help your card making a lot easier! Enjoy!

Card Making Steps

There's two cards featured here, so I'll outline the general steps to creating them.

1. Create a cardblank using blue cardstock.

2. Cut out two different patterned blocks from the boy patterned paper and adhere them to the cardblank as shown.

3. Cut out the robot block from the boy patterned paper. Adhere it to a block of cardstock using foam pads. Attach the robot tag to the card with foam pads.

4. Use the tag labeler to tag out the black greeting tag and attach it to bottom of the card as shown.

5. Handwrite name on cardstock using a black pen. Attach it to the top of the card as shown.
