I, (Saffa) come from a very multicultural background and love being able to see them all from within and this is what has inspired this weeks challenge....take a deep breath...
I would like you to make a card that celebrates and reflects a festival from another culture to your own....
So here are some ideas to get you started:
Chinese New Year,
Eid,
Hanukkah,
Persian New Year,
Diwali,
Sinhalese New Year,
Kwanzaa,
St. Patrick's day.
After toying with the idea of making a card for 'Winter Veil' - the WoW celebration in December, (it is part of the gaming culture (!)), I actually settled on making a card for Diwali - The Festival of Light.
Paper is Making Memories Boho Chic, Overlay is made using photoshop brushes - this is really bad but I can't remember where I go them from, I did check to see that they were free for personal use though! :) Papermania Brad and Staples and Eyelet from Stash. Sentiment is stamped using a nifty little set from Lidl.
The design team's beautiful cards are here...
