You Had Me at Aloha

Our Hawaiian shirt card harnesses the vibrant colors of summer with a fun hibiscus pattern and dark green palm fronds on a light blue background. The inside of this tropical-inspired card is blank, ideal for a heartfelt message or handwritten invitation.

Once completed, your card slips easily into any standard A7 envelope. Or you can easily make your own envelope like we did! We chose a color from our Conifer Pack for this card, but it would look just as good peeking out of a dark green or coral envelope. For a little pop, consider adding a bold liner for contrast.

Skill level: Beginner

Crafting tip: You can make your own envelope like we did using our 12×12″ frosted paper.
