Actually we can create the “triangle part” in border itself by using the :before or :before pseudo-element. Check the below codes for reference.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {

margin: 0 auto;
padding: 10%;
}
.message {
display: block;
position: relative;
background: #FFFFFF;
padding: 15px;
border: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
margin-top: 20px;
}
.message:after {
content: '';
display: block;
position: absolute;
