DIY Congratulations Card – a Surprising way to congratulate.
When you look at the photo below what is the first thought that goes through your mind?
Nautical Theme? Sail Boats? Shells? Perfect for Men? Stripes? Anchors?
Did you picture the Ocean, a Lake?
Did you smell salty air?
That is what we experienced when we saw the challenge photo and we were excited to rise to the challenge. This DIY Congratulations Card was created for the Dazzling Diva Challenge #25. Card challenges are a great way to get some inspiration. When creating this card we looked for something that would fit this challenge. We found this retired sail boat stamp and so glad we did!
When creating this card we wanted to use something surprising and unique to create it with, while creating a masculine feel. This particular card could be used for any type of congratulations.
The following supplies were used to create this card:
- Stampin' Up! Blendabilities (Which are coming soon to customers, I'll keep you in the loop as it's revealed to me)
