You Snailed it! A cute and easy congratulations card

October 11, 2017 by Amy

this Card Idea
Quirky Critters wins again with a cute way to congratulate a friend

Let someone know they did a great job by sending them this cute snail card.   The Quirky Critters  snail is suitable for a small accomplishment or a big celebration.  This example uses melon mambo for a distinctly girl card- especially with the ruffled embossing folder background- but the stamp itself could easily be used for a more masculine card.

I love this colour combo-melon mambo with lemon lime twist and a touch of tempting turquoise.  The lemon lime twist ombré ribbon adds a touch of whimsy and is easy to add.  Run a couple strips of fast fuse perpendicular to how you want the ribbon to go.  Place the ribbon back and forth and cut.  The hardest part is trying not to do it perfectly and to just try it.  The ribbon should lift off if you need to try a few times until you like how it looks.

Like the Quirky Critters?  See a belated birthday card made with the same set here.

The special whale Quirky Critters image makes a pretty "just because" card or as I like to say a "Cheer you up" card as shown here.
