Islamic wedding card

I'm really proud of this as I had absolutely no idea what to do when my sister asked me to make an Islamic wedding card for her friend. I looked up some ideas from an Islamic wedding card website, and also a Mehndi website (they're getting their hands hennaed today!) See pics at bottom for my inspiration.

This is what I made. It's got gold card behind it then the swirly pattern is gold. I've decoupaged the flowers and the sentiment. The picture doesn't really do it justice but I'm pleased with the result. Thanks Han for donating the bits to make it.

  1. Stunning card Clare, well done on the islamic theme.
    One of my step-daughters is over in India at the moment meeting her fella's parents and they are going to a friends wedding tomorrow and whilst she was talking to us on the phone this afternoon, she was having her hands tattoed with henna, hope she brings some pics home.

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
