Nengajō (New Year greeting card)

Here is a very easy greeting card to wish your loved ones a happy New Year. Sending nengajō for the New Year is a very popular tradition in Japan. The one I am showing you, by Didier Boursin, is decorated with a crane, a symbol of luck and happiness for the Japanese. To make it, you will need a rectangle of about 9 × 24 cm. Folded in pretty paper, it is sure to delight!
