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.
i enjoyed your sketches and even though I intended to join in scribble picnic I just haven't had the time to do this. The brussel sprouts receipe sounds great. Nice lantern.
Beautiful lantern, love the colours. Hugs, Valerie
