Little Boy collection is designed by Echo Park Paper Company.

This card opens on the side. Adhere the 4 x 5 ¼ White cardstock piece to the chocolate cardstock (card base). Adhere the 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 plaid print to the white cardstock. Adhere the 1 x 3 7/8 punched edge to the right side of the navy dot print. Adhere the 2 ¾ x 3 7/8 navy dot print paper with punched edge ½ from right-side of plaid print paper edge. Die cut shape out using spellbinder shapes and 2 ¾ x 3 ½ stripe print paper. Using foam mounting tape, adhere die cut shape to center of navy dot print.

Stamp small giraffe on 2 1/4 x 3 white cardstock. I colored the images using color pencils. Whatever you have is fine. Cut the giraffe out using your scissors. I like to color first because then you have more to hold on to when cutting.  Using foam mounting tape, stick giraffe to center of striped die cut. Add Stardust stickles bow on giraffe.

Tie knot at fold of card base. 

Happy card making!!!
