masculine card set + tips

Being a mom of twin teenage boys I’m always on the lookout for new masculine paper collections, so naturally I was thrilled to see the My Little Boy Mini-Theme release from Echo Park. But since my boys are big now, I love to find collections that are versatile enough for me to use on projects for them.

It can be hard to find products that work well for a teen boy scrapbook page, card, or gift , but this collection fits the bill. I opted to use the generic prints and stickers in the collection, and combine them with some fun Designer Dies. To save time I used a similar design for each card. Since the design has more of a vertical feel, I used 4 ¼ x 5 ½ inch card bases that open at the bottom.

To create the sentiment for the “Hello” card, I trimmed the bottom off the “Hello Little One” sticker accent and placed it flush with the bottom of the card. I’m often looking for ways that I can alter embellishments to fit my needs and stretch my supplies.

I pulled in a few semi-solid papers from the Dots & Stripes Neutrals 8×8 Paper Pad, and the Made From Scratch 6×6 Paper Pad for some of the die cutting. I love that Echo Park offers so many paper options that coordinate so well with their other collections.

Thanks for letting me share this masculine card set with you. I hope these tips are helpful for those of you needing ideas for masculine projects.
