Today we will be learning to make this KETUPAT inspired DIY Hari Raya greeting card. We need two different coloured paper for this project and the skill needed is weaving to get the ketupat finish.
Watch this tutorial video to see how it is done:
I just realized we have not been updating this blog since late last year. That is what Motherhood does to me. I hardly have time to craft with my kids but as the little one will be turning TWO next month, I’m sure we’ll be updating frequently as he is at the best age to be crafting with his little fingers 😀
For today, I’ll just be sharing a greeting card my elder boy did in school for the upcoming Hari Raya festival. Hari Raya AidilFitri is an important celebration by Muslims.Â
He made a ‘ketupat’ using crepe paper on the front of his card.
And wrote some festival greetings on the inside.Â
We are in the festive spirit and will be making oil lamp today 🙂
