Encouragement for a Triathlon: Swimming

One of my best friends is training for her first triathalon.  She is training with 'Team in Training' and is competing to honor her brother, who recently won his battle with lymphoma.  You can find out more here.  

This is the third in a series of cards I am sending her.  The first card was to encourage her for her 10k run.  The second card was to encourage her for the 40k bike ride.  This last card is to encourage her for the 1.5 k ocean swim.


Here is the card I made for her:

I decided to use the Team in Training official colors, which are teal and purple.  This card is a CASE of one of the PTI DT's cards posted during the introduction of this stamp set.

I hope she sees how cute the whale is, and how effortlessly she is swimming through the big ocean waves.  The event is next weekend, so this week marks the end of all the training.  I know she will do great.  I wish I could be there in person to cheer her on, but it is too far away, so I am doing it via mail (and phone).


Supplies Used (all Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted):
Stamps:  Whale Wishes, Background Basics:  Retro, Polka Dot Basics II
Paper:  Royal Velvet, Bazzil Blue Calypso
Other:  Whale die, Rickrack border die, Cloud die, Clear embossing powder
