Today’s congratulations card is simple, masculine and offers bold pops of Stampin’ Up! Emerald Envy and Night of Navy. I’m diggin’ those stars as well for a “success” card! This card was created by my Stampin’ Pretty Design Team.
I love hearing from you! Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Squares and rectangles make this design super simple. The base is 4 1/2″ square in Emerald Envy Cardstock.
- Measuring up! The stripes are layers of Night of Navy (1 1/4″), Whisper White (15/16″), and a sliver of Night of Navy (1/4″) down the middle. Great way to use those card stock scraps in your crafting space!
- My Stampin’ Trimmer made cutting even the smallest stripe a cinch. IMPORTANT UPDATE: Stampin’ Trimmer Cutting Blades (126995) will be available to order on Aug. 1!
- Suite Sayings provides a crisp font and knows just what to say for many occasions. It’s a sentiment stamp set that goes the distance!
