Birthday Camping Lantern

Hello Crafty Friends!
 
I'm back to share with you another birthday gift that I made.  Today is my older brother's birthday and he and his family go camping and hiking, so I thought this was perfect for him.
 
 
 Close up of the tag

 
A small battery powered tea light fits inside.
 
Supplies:
 
The lantern is from the "Camp Smore" kit by SVG Cuts, cut using my Cameo
 
The gift tag is cut using Jaded Blossom "Treat Tag Die" and the sentiments are from the "Picture This" stamp set.  I arranged a few of the stamps to fit into the center tag and then stamped them onto vellum.
 
The tag is tied using "Green Leaves" Rumple Ribbon from Lovebug Creations.
 
 
I love how this turned out and already have plans to make more.
 
 
I will be entering this into the "Cowboy Challenge" over at Cameo Creations.  Every cowboy needs a lantern while he's out rounding up the cattle.
 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
