Last year I was given this white wood and glass lantern as a Christmas present with the strict instructions it was for altering......I waited for Prima Vines to inspire me......then I wanted a Japanese theme........I toyed with collaging it.......finally I came up with AUTUMN.
I couldn't do "true" Halloween due to that whole Non-Halloween English thing with craft shops......I know it's not their fault they don't sell enough but I really feel the need to play with Halloweeny things!

In the end I found some lovely Bo-Bunny Autumn coloured papers at The Hobby House.
Then as luck would have it my good friend, the gorgeous and talented Carol aka Carols Paper Pantry send me some Twiddlybitz (take a look at her blog for breathtaking details).....ps: the Twiddlybitz DT Blog rocks too!!

yup..ever since they arrived I have been playing with my Bitz lol!!
The Twiddlybitz cat was perfect for A Halloween Lantern so I decided to do BOTH.....my Lantern now has two faces.....An Autumn side and a Halloween side......
..for someone who intensly dislikes orange it seems to be taking over my lounge!!HELP!!!
Love and black cats

Lovely they are stunning.
bye bye,Lean
Love the two faced idea Ruth, you've made a great job of it, and it goes a 'treat' with the other bits on the mantle piece. It's a good idea not to rush things, an idea always arrives, 'eventually'.

wooow what a beautiful work
WOW Ruth, it's lovely. If you can't stand orange, I love it, so when you've done with it .......
Hahaha, this is so funny. You dislike orange but you make the most wonderful projects with it and there are so many other orange things in your house!! Lol
I LOVE this lantern, absolutely beautiful!
