Welcome to Day Five of the Viva Las VegaStamps! Design Team's Halloween party that goes everyday through September 29th. There is a prize for those who leave comments on every post on each stop of the hop, too! I will giveaway a fabulous blog candy prize at the end of the hop drawn from all new followers of my blog.
We've got a full week of HALLOWEEN inspiration, blogs, prizes, contests and - each day will feature a different way to be entered to win a prize. Just two more days to drop by for your chance to win.
My Paper Lantern will keep the Party Glowing.
I'm no "Martha" - but boy does she come up with great ideas for Halloween. This paper lantern is one of them. It was a downloadable PDF file from her website and I just printed the pattern out, cut out and traced on 4 sheets of black shimmery paper. Then I cut out 4 sections of orange vellum {you can use white} and stamped my scene consisting of 4 stamps: tree background, cemetery, full moon with and the flock of bats. Using my handy-dandy MIRACLE TAPE - I taped the panels in and each lantern side together and I have a pretty paper lantern - AND - it will lay flat for storage next year!

I added a battery powered LED tea light and this lantern is complete!
