This is my very first time posting so please be patient with me. I made the cutest Halloween lantern inspired by one I saw on Martha's site. I cut three of the lanterns and glued them together then I cut the cute witch image from A Child's Year Cartridge.
Below (I hope) is the screen shot of the lantern:

And I forgot to say the frosted looking "glass" is just wax paper. I am going to put a battery-powered votive in the bottom of the lantern so it is more spooky. Once I do that I will post another picture. Thanks for looking.

Jen,

I remember seeing that lantern on MS and thinking how cute it was. You did a great job. Did you also make the witch silhoutte? Never mind, I just saw that you said it was from A Child's Year.

Very nice job. Thanks for sharing it.
