Miss You, Friend – A Bold and Elegant Card Design
Today I’m sharing a card that blends bold contrast with a touch of elegance — perfect for letting a friend know they’re missed.
This design started with that striking navy and white striped background. I love how the uneven texture gives it a hand-painted feel — it adds such warmth and character! To balance all that pattern, I added a bold pop of crushed curry, which cuts across the card at an angle for a fresh, modern layout.
The sentiment is the star of the show: “Miss You Friend.” I used a mix of bold script and clean type to create visual interest and make the message really stand out.
Then, of course, I couldn’t resist adding some beautiful floral elements. The detailed navy line art flowers bring a timeless elegance and soften the graphic lines in the background. A few subtle embellishments add a gentle shimmer without overpowering the design.
Card Details:
Color Palette: Night of Navy, Crushed Curry, Basic White
Background: Striped patterned paper or stamped stripes for a handmade touch
Focal Point: Layered sentiment with bold script font
Embellishments: Subtle gems for a hint of sparkle
Accents: Pierced detailing on the yellow panel for added texture
This card has just the right mix of strength and sweetness — ideal for reaching out to a dear friend you haven’t seen in a while.
