  • Search your home and you may find lot of invitation cards lying around
  • recover a good card, which we will use to lay our design
  • Take a blank printing paper of any size and align over the card you have recovered.
  • Mark the size of paper required giving allowance for borders on all sides and cut
  • Draw the outline of any design you like. You can also make your own designs as I did.
  • Using a craft knife or blade cut the outline of the design.
  • Paste the paper with the design over the invitation card.

  • Quill different shapes and align over the design and stick with glue
  • Apply stones, jewellery making pieces over the design with glue
  • I have written my Birthday wishes at the bottom right of the card with glue and applied glitter over it

After some time the glue will dry and our Greeting Card is ready
