I made this lantern for one of my friends in our card group. She always does so much for us that I wanted to repay her kindness with this lantern.
I used a lot of scrap card stock for the flowers and brown card stock for the vase. Here I show the lantern with the lights off and on so that it could be used either way.
For her I used some of the twinkle lights where all she needs to do is press a button on the back but you could add a small tealight to the inside also.
