Firecracker Themed Diwali Greeting Card for Kids

Sharing is caring!

Send out your Diwali greetings to extended family with a fun firecracker themed Diwali Greeting Card! Easy to make with basic craft supplies.
 
These Diwali Foam cards went out to all the relatives this year. Simple red cardstock & pattern foam. Each year we try and make a special card for the extended family. My parents, Hubby’s parents, my granny, My brother in law and family & my sister.  
 
It’s so much fun to make something and send. As a kid, I loved making cards & posting it to all relatives & friends.  This year too was no exception. Miss P loves firecrackers but is very scared to burst them. She had burnt her fingers during 2011 and still gets scared. So an easier alternative was to make the non-scary ones at home. Miss P loved the idea.  The cards are super easy to make.
