Candy Surprise Eid Card {Tutorial}
With our big extended family, we realized we needed more Eid cards then the one we made last week.
So today we thought it might be fun to make a card that looks like a candy wrapper from the outside, but when you open it, it has a nice surprise inside.
Supplies
12 x red card stock
Small long strip of green card stock
Eid Mubarak printed on colorful paper
Scissors
Double sided tape
Crayons or markers
