Birthday Cards - Greeting Cards - ”Sailor Bears”
This card has a feeling of a breezy summer’s day at the sea with its typical maritime symbols and the crisp colors of blue and white. It is an example of what you can craft using paper napkins and the decoupage technique or paper napkin technique. It is also very fun, quick and inexpensive to make. Use this example as a guide of what you could create.
