Scribble Picnic - Lantern


The theme for Scribble Picnic is 'Lantern'. I decided to go with a lighted Chinese lantern here. The piece is done in acrylic on good quality textured dark blue cardstock (6" x 6").

That's gorgeous Christine, love the contrast of the red silk lantern with the dark blue which looks like the night sky. The sprig of bright berries adds a nice touch.

That's so fun, Christine with the dotted textured paper and beautifully designed too. I love it and yes, we went the same route, didn't we? :)

The bright lantern makes an inviting spot to meet with a friend or two in the dark night.
