I like printing this type of project on Cardstock Paper: I use Neenah Bright White Premium Cardstock on Amazon, because it’s thick (65lb), smooth and inexpensive. But even regular copy paper can do.

I’ve opted for a Scandinavian style, both gender-neutral and fun. I hope you like it! Plus, this design is pretty ink economic if that’s something you’re concerned about.
