So my friend in Tasmania, Australia turned 21 recently... So I decided to make a card for him!I didn't want to make it bulky or have anything that could really fall off because it had a long way to be mailed. So I decided to keep it pretty simple.
The edges of this panel were inked with black Staz-On for some contrast. Just take your card stock and rub the edge across your ink pad. Easy!
Roughen up the edges of your panel for some character.
To make room for your greeting and message, put a fun piece of cloud-shaped Whisper White card stock inside the card. There's an added white piece of paper here, covering the personal message. Mom forgot to take the picture before I wrote inside!From,
Kat
