magnolia easter/spring lantern

I wanted to make something lovely to hang up on display for easter this year so I thought I'd do a lantern.
I have used a range of mangolia easter images...they are all so cute and coloured them with my much loved copic markers. I really enjoyed making this lantern and I hope you like it too....There is a candle on the inside of the lantern which would look lovely lit up of a night time ;-)
I used lots of ribbons and lace on this project along with some beautiful flowers.





 see the bunny hiding on the inside of the lantern....


 There's a chicken in there breaking out of his shell to celebrate along with tilda in her shell.....

 flowers, ribbon / lace and gems...
