This easy crescent moon and stars craft using scrap painting is a beautiful Ramadan craft to make with children.

--WHAT YOU'LL NEED--

Ink-jet transparencies (Inkjet transparencies have a rough side that works with the highlighters. Regular transparencies won’t work for this specific project.)
Scotch tape
Highlighters in a variety of colors
Black Sharpie
Ruler or other straight edge
Scissors
Double-sided tape or liquid glue
Construction paper or cardstock for frame

--STEP 1--

Cut your inkjet transparencies to the size you’d like your suncatcher to be.

--STEP 2--

Your transparency has a rough side and a smooth side. Tape it down with a few pieces of tape so the smooth side is face up.

--STEP 3--

Use your black Sharpie and ruler to draw numerous intersecting lines across your artwork so it resembles a stained glass pattern.

--STEP 4--

Turn your transparency over so the rough side is face up. Use your highlighters to color in the areas formed by the intersecting lines. Let it dry.

--STEP 5--

Cut out a frame from your construction paper and use double sided tape or glue to adhere it to your artwork. Hang it up on your window!
