Eid Greetings 2.

Dear friends, thank so much for all your lovely comments to my previous post on Eid Greetings1.  Truth be told, I have been so busy with several gift packaging orders and altered art projects that card making has just not been much focused upon. I go thru these “waves” when suddenly I get inspired to a certain craft and take to it like a fish to water ! Say for instance, last entire month, I have been designing party favors and gift baskets, then for months before that, I was so engrossed and enjoying altering plaques and before that, it was bookmarks and paper crafting !! Its a weird thing with me   but I suppose, there must be “others” weird like me who also find a certain craft style so enchanting that they just have to try it and once they try it, they are hooked onto it !   So anyways, I think, the only greeting cards, I have made in a while are these three Eid greetings.

Alittle about the card, It is a simple yet elegant card with a bit of paper piecing for the “sentiment over the cupcakes, some diecuts/punches and a bunting on it. Needless to say, I love the pink pattern paper ~ Pink being my very favorite of colors !  Ofcourse the cupcakes are digital stamps while the sentiment is done by yours truly on microsoft word.  A little ribbon and we are off with a pretty card. I have actually stopped saying that I have distressed the edges becoz I dont think, I have done ANY projects WITHOUT distress ink in the past couple of years  !!!! I am virtually addict to it.  So please do share with me how you found my Eid Greeting card.

Here it is :
