I was asked to make a Baby Boy card and this is the result.

| From the front, the card looks pretty standard |
I stamped the Baby Bear stamp onto Soft Sky cardstock using Tip Top Taupe for the first two layers and Early Espresso for the final layer. I stamped the bow onto Whisper White cardstock using Pacific Point ink.
The Sentiment was created with two stamps from the Tin of Cards stamp set.

| Do children still play with alphabet building blocks? |
Once the card is opened, the 3-steps are evident and I used them to spell out the word Boy.
As I either learn or develop new ideas or techniques, I write them into my technique notebook. In the early years, I'm afraid I wasn't very good at recording where I learned the technique. So I'm sorry to say that I can't properly acknowledge the person from whom I learned but I can say that this is a very good tutorial and template looks exactly like the one I used.
I did do something different though. I didn't feel inclined to cut the decorative paper to fit so I adhered the decorative paper to a piece of Whisper White cardstock before I cut and scored.
