A Lilac Eid Card With Space for a Longer Message
Lilac pattern, deep purple lanterns and hanging crescents make this card gentle and modern. Unlike many of the short Eid cards, it has room for a full paragraph under the calligraphy, with a small mosque icon at the foot. It suits letters to relatives, teachers’ notes, thank yous and any greeting that needs more than a line.
Hanging Lanterns, Crescents and Calligraphy
The card is 1080 x 1350 pixels, portrait, one page. Fine wire arcs cross the top, with purple lanterns and crescents hanging at different lengths. The calligraphy sits in the middle in deep purple with a drop shadow. The paragraph is set in tall condensed capitals, and a purple mosque icon with two minarets sits at the bottom.
A Paragraph of Blessings
The text reads EID IS A TIME TO CHERISH THE BLESSINGS WE HAVE AND SHARE JOY WITH THOSE AROUND US. MAY YOUR HEART BE FILLED WITH GRATITUDE, YOUR HOME WITH LAUGHTER, AND YOUR LIFE WITH PEACE AND PROSPERITY. EID MUBARAK TO YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES. Then YOUR NAME HERE signs it. If you retype, keep the capitals to match the style, or change to normal case for easier reading.
Rewriting the Paragraph in Your Voice
- Mention one blessing you are grateful for.
- Name the person you greet.
- Add a memory or a plan to meet.
- Keep it under fifty words.
- Finish with Eid Mubarak and your name.
Why Capitals Can Be Hard to Read
Long text in capitals is slower to read. If your paragraph is longer than the sample, switch to sentence case and increase the line spacing slightly. The condensed font fits more words, which is useful on a tall card.
A Card That Doubles as a Letter
Print on A5 and write a short handwritten note on the back, or paste a photo. The lilac colour prints softly and does not overpower handwriting. Many families keep such cards for years.
Saving the Lilac Eid Card
Save at 1080 x 1350 pixels. When printing, use 200 gsm and a colour laser. The pale lilac pattern can look faint on a cheap printer, so test first.
