How to make a Paper Diya Card for Diwali
You can also use this free diya template to make some gorgeous little DIYA garlands.
Making your Diya flame and “pot”
Step -1: Print out the template and cut out any set of diya template you want; the template includes 3 different sizes. Trace the template patterns on selected colored craft papers and also gather some paper quilling strips of different colors but keep a long yellow strip for quilling a flame pattern.
Step -2: Grab the paper cutouts prepared for the diya craft.
Step – 3: Attach the small flame cutout on the big flame cutout. Attach the thin curve cutout on the diya-pot cutout.
Step – 4: Now attach the paper flame on the top side of the paper diya-pot, keeping the attached end of the flame on the back side of the pot.
Decorating the Diya with paper quills
Step – 5: Use the long yellow quilling strip to make a quilled teardrop shape. Use the rest of the quilling strips to make small tight coils.
Step – 6: Attach the yellow quilled teardrop on the small part of the paper flame of the paper diya.
Step – 7: Apply drop of glue along the top side of the paper diya pot and grab all the tight coils.
Step – 8: Place the tight coils on the glued part one by one. Start gluing them from a side.
Step – 9: Keep adding the tight coils until the top side is covered.
Step – 10: Finally glue your DIY to some brightly coloured card!
And your paper Diya Card for Diwali is completed. Give to a friend or a relative!
