A few of these I did on Monday with the use of a lantern (we have a mini Coleman that is a flashlight/lantern combo). It wasn’t really dark, but enough that I needed some light. My eyes aren’t that young anymore. : (
First two by lantern, finished Tuesday night:
Paradise-made with gardening catalog for the background, bluebird from old bird handbook and stickers
Want to Play?- tore up a few different colors of green handmade paper found at Dollar Tree and used Mod Podge to apply. Real looking flowers are from the gardening catalog. The rest are stickers.
This one was made before the power outage:
Blooms-background is my photo from Longwood Gardens, ‘Blooms’ is from the brochure from LG, and moth is freebie from Dover Publications. One side is a sticker and the other is paper.
And this one made Tuesday night as I got a big order of papers from Creative Papers online and wanted to dig in to my new stash:
Cardinal Song-flocked paper, Dover freebie gramophone, sheet music and awesome Marjolein Bastin bird stickers (gotta love stickers!). I colored the gramophone.




Those are all really nice! Great work.
Hey Dianne! I’m sending all of my positive thoughts for Sean to get the position at Longwood Gardens! So I’m sitting here with all of my fingers and toes crossed. Of course, that’s making typing this comment very difficult…
Even by lantern you make gorgeous ATCs:-) Love all the bird themes, very fitting for this time of year. It’s pouring rain here today so I’m trying to catch up with my blogger friends and also doing laundry and packing. See you when I get back from my trip:-) xoxo
Crafting by latern light…………….it sounds so romantic….like Little House on the Prairie days.
It always sounds romantic, but I bet after 5 hours you were VERY happy to have the lights come back on.
Thank you for good information~~*
