Today, I am showcasing this beautiful Photo Lantern designed by guest designer Shannon at Rae of Life Photography using the Square Classic Lantern SVG file. She approached me with this idea and I was so excited to see how it would turn out. As you can see, it is beautiful! What a wonderful idea to use photos for the sides of the lanterns. AND it is even better at night! Click here to read about all the details and a additional video on her blog.
Beautiful Orchid Lantern with butterfly designed by Janet. She used both the Orchid Box Card and Hexagon Classic Lantern for this lovely creation. She even decorated the vellum panels. All the details are available on her blog by clicking here.
This beautiful and colorful lantern was designed by Helle using the Simple Elegance Lantern SVG File. I just love all the different colors and elements used. So beautiful!
Sharing this glittery Christmas Star Lantern Helle designed using the 3D Star Lantern SVG file. She replaced the fireworks on the sides with snowflakes.
For me, many files in the Simply Crafty SVGs’ shop are versatile enough to use for multiple occasions. This is not by accident. As a crafter, I like to get the most bang for the buck, as I am sure most of you understand. So, today, I made a Christmas version of the Tall Window Lantern SVG design. It is so easy to customize for any holiday or season. The original I made with a Spring feel, but I really wanted to make it for a Christmas decoration for my home.
I added a few Holly, Pine and Berry elements for the top using images from the Cricut cartridge 3D Floral Home Decor. I used the leaves from design #MA404E and the holly and pine from design #MA404C. I also added a few rhinestone accents on the top.
I embossed the optional vellum panels with the Cuttlebug Victoria Embossing Folder. I love the look of embossed vellum.
Instead of using a battery-operated tealight, I lit it up a small string of Fairy Lights. This really highlights the embossing pattern.
I hope you enjoyed this project. Happy Crafting! -Sandy
Check out this cute little Spring tealight holder Jana made this month with the Dragonfly Tealight Holder SVG file. I love the use of all the different types of paper and I love the size, although not intentional.
