Japanese Paper Lanterns

The paper lanterns were made from sheets of 8 1/2 x 11 card stock and printed with lemons that were turned into stamps. The card stock was folded in half and wiggly lines were cut started at the folding and ending about an inch from the edge. I turned sponges and acrylic paint into stamp pads. The lanterns are stapled together, holes are punched at the top, and brads were used to fasten the paper strips that become the handles.
