Tutorial

1. In this card I started with a brown sheet of paper, which I crumbled as much as I can (take a thick paper not very delicate ‘cause it will tear easily while crumbling) I crumbled and opened the paper then crumbled again so that I can get a whole distressed look, everywhere, then I pressed the sheet with iron to make it straight.
2. I tore the sides/edges with the help of a steel ruler, and tore in a distressed way, to get rough sides and corners.
3. Then I used a Thick (width) Floral tissue Ribbon (daisy flower Ribbon) and adhere it to the bottom of the card.
4. I string the top of the card with a thread and tie a bow, adding some beads at the end of the strings/threads.
5. Then I made a bouquet using off white Crepe Paper, you just have to make a fan of it, then tie thread/ribbon/strings at the bottom, and open it, and pressed it down to give it a crinkled look, I then added some readymade flowers (roses and sunflowers) and leaves, I attached it to the card center, with a tilted position, over the ribbon.
6. Finally I made the tag and wrote the wordings,
   جزاك الله جنة الفردوس
   May Allah reward you Jannah AlFirdous
7. In the End I Sprinkled some golden glitter to make everything Sparkle *smiles* thats all!

Dear Sisters, Friends
and Everyone!

I wanted to share a Sweet Card which is given to us by one of our Arabic teacher at the end of our Second Level of Arabic Classes, to all of her Students,
it was so nice of her,
She is so Creative and Talented (ماشاء الله)
And i Respect her a lot.

Method:

How she made this Card, i can't tell exactly, but as far as i know, she tore and burned the sides of the card, and pasted the Crepe paper Bouquet where she attached some fabric and ribbon flowers, and embellished it with gem stones, golden diamonds and leaves, and she closed the card through tying one end of the ribbon at the bouquet and the other end at the other side of the card, and inside she attached the ticket to an Open Day at our Institute and she kept a Poem card (an Arabic Poem), which was so heartfelt, that made us cry.

Anyways, I Liked the Card very much,
it was so sweet of her to give all her students the Same Pretty card.
(ماشاء الله لا قوة الا بالله)
May Allah accept this and Reward her for her work, Ameen.

(آمين يا رب العالمين)

Card no:22 - Thank you ever so much Card

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته

Hi Everyone!
This is an easy card but looks tricky, and i just made it very simply, see the instructions.

Tutorial:

• Firstly, i just stamped some squares using Magic Markers on my handmade foam stamps,(square shape) (Markers: they are the markers on which if you use white marker, it changes its color) so i stamped and made some doodlings, and polka dots and lines, and i also embellished them with a button, a flower and a foam heart over three of the squares.
• I cut the squares leaving a little border and arranged them on the card and adhered them with 3D foam ahdesives.
• Next i pierced with the needle some dots in a kind of doodle line and made some stitching lines with black pen, and wrote "Thank you ever so much"
• In the end i thought something is missing so i also put a yellow stamped flower with 3D foam and draw some stitching lines all around the card.
