Baby Boy Announcement

Hello CutCardStock friends, today I am showcasing the Gatefold cards in Bag Brown Craft along with the Bag Brown Kraft A1 Envelopes nature products, in honor of Earth Day April 22nd. I also used the Dark Red in the Basic Colors cardstock pack along with Polyester Satin Ribbon in Cream. 

 For this project I decided to make a baby boy announcement card. After selecting my color pallet along with my personal patterned paper, I decided I wanted my design to show off the gatefold card.
 

 I also wanted my envelopes to match my card so I traced the envelope flap on the back of my patterned paper, hand cut it out, and adhered it to the flap of the envelope.

 I then used my 1″ hole punch to make a homemade seal for the envelope with a matching star sticker.

 Using my embellishments I made a design of paper layers on the front of my card. I then used a burlap star with a blue teddy bear sticker on top. I then topped off the design with the cream satin ribbon to complete my baby boy announcement! I hope you all have a fun earth day, and create with some natural products.

Thank you
