Maymay had a fabulous idea, a 3D lantern made with dies. This lil lantern would make a great table decor or a beautiful ornament for special lighting on your Christmas tree. So gather up those supplies and let's create!
Supplies used:
Neenah Creative cardstock collection
battery operated tea light
Measurements:
Lantern sides:
~ 4 lanterns cut out of brown cardstock
Construction strips:
~ 4 pieces of brown cardstock cut to 1/2" x 3 1/4" and scored 1/4" on the short side
Lantern windows:
~4 pieces of vellum cut to 2 3/8" x 3 1/4"
To assemble: glue the vellum to the backside of the lanterns. Be easy with the glue, it may show thru your vellum. Then you will take the construction strips and glue those the sides of the lantern, making sure that the scoreline is right up to the edge. Do that to all 4 lantern pieces on one side, then join the other sides to form the 3d project. See the video for assembly.
