Release week post
AND today’s post too! 🙂
Today is our first day of our showcase of “Lunar Lights”. This 4″ x 6″ set is inspired by Chinese New Year (also known as Lunar New Year) thus the name Lunar Lights! Chinese New Year was on February 3rd, so we just had to release this one now!
Remember to click on the person’s name or card to see all of the details and leave these wonderful DT girls some comment love! 🙂
Could Julie‘s Lawn Fawn debut be any cuter? I just adore this! The summery colors are just perfect for this set! She used Sophie’s Sentiments for her sentiment and highlighted it with the “light rays” from the set! So clever! The bows at the end of the string comes as a separate stamp so you can add it or not. I think it’s the perfect touch on this card!
Chan‘s Lawn Fawn debut is just perfect for Chinese New year! I absolutely adore her treat bag using the traditional red and gold colors of Chinese New Year. The sentiment is from Lunar Lights and is perfect for any occasion. We wanted to come up with a sentiment that could work for as many occasions as possible, and I think this is it! Chan added the tassel to the lantern to give that Asian flair and decorated the lantern ingeniously with a Petite Florals flower! Oh, and I love those Chinese candies that are in her bag! Yum! 🙂
Latisha‘s card is just gorgeous! Paper piecing the lanterns looks so beautiful! I also adore the gems going up the lantern strings! So brilliant! The sentiment is also from the set, and it just makes me smile! This color combination is just fabulous! I think we should all go try it right away!
Lea‘s card is so perfectly feminine! The pennants above the hanging lanterns is just beautiful! I feel like I am at a perfect garden party! I love that so many different feels can come with this set depending on how you style it! The paper piecing is just beautiful, and I love the gems at the base of the lantern string. Fantastic!
Tiffany‘s card is so fun! I absolutely adore how she added the sentiment in the lanterns! So brilliant! It fits perfectly! Her background is too fun! It looks like patterned paper, but it is the smaller lanterns from the set stamped over and over. I love that! I also love how she used the bow! Super sweet!
I am loving Teri‘s card! Her color combo is way cool, and I love how she has the tassels in a different color. They really stand out! You can see some of the different styles of tassels that we have in the set here! I also heard at CHA that tassels are going to be the next big thing! Very exciting! The bakers twine bows are so trendy and really add another feel to the card. I love that!
Mariana‘s card is pure joy! I adore her colors and the glitter! She used our mini tassel on the small lanterns and you can see what a different feel it has! The texture on her card is so wonderful! The twine, staples, raised glitter and embossed paper is so fantastic! These lanterns are so fun to color too!
Lynnette‘s card is just too fun! She shows how perfectly these stamps paper piece. Get ready to pull out those patterned paper scraps you have been saving (we all do it! hehe!) I love how Lynnette placed one lantern behind the other. It really give the card dimension without bulk: perfect for mailing! I just love the joy in this card!
Make sure you click on each of the design team’s names or pictures to go to their blogs and see the details of how they made their cards. You will walk away inspired for sure!
I hope you have enjoyed this sneak peek of “Lunar Lights”. Tomorrow we have more DT inspiration and a video! For now, though, it’s giveaway time! Leave me a comment telling me if you ever hang lanterns for decoration by February 9th at 10:00pm EST, and we will randomly pick one winner!

OHHHHH!!!! Love it! I love paper lanterns!!! I have never had any to hang though…must get this set so I can at least decorate a Card with them! 😉
What cute stamps! I've hung paper lanterns for parties before–they're quite lovely!
When we go camping at the beach we would hang the battery op lanterns on the Ez up shelter, looks really neat at night. I've bought some to put in the backyard, hopefully will get them out this summer.
I really like the "shine brightly" sentiment!
Cute cards! I love those stamps! 🙂
Yay, these are all so cute!
Oh my there goes all my hard earned money! Too cute!

What a wonderful use of lanterns! So excited about this stamp set. I've hung lanterns from trees in the summertime to illuminate my yard at night!

These cards are so wonderful they make me long for summer! Speaking of summer that's the only time I hang lanterns for decoration
oooh, lovely! yes, i've hung lanterns for chinese new yr's celebrations at home and for events. 🙂
I love the new lantern stamps! Now fun. I once found some amazing 1940's lanterns at an antiques store. I had them hanging in my daughter's bedroom for a while. They always made me feel happy because the colors were so pretty.
I cant wait to add this new stamp set to my Lawn Fawn collection!
What beautiful inspiration! My mother is OBSESSED with paper lanterns–making them, hanging them, giving them away! I think she would love a card made with these cute stamps 🙂 Aparna

WOW! These are all so amazing, I just love the paper lanterns, so whimsical, cute & unique. I am inspired by each of these fabulous cards, they are all so so pretty. Great examples & another must have lawn fawn set 🙂
love love love this set. I have a really cute lantern i got at Target that is solar powered that i put out on my front porch hanging in the summer time. I get afternoon sun, so it lights up until about nine or so..it's really fun and a fun summer lime color.
What amazing cards you DT made! WOW WOW WOW! :> Love these lanterns! And nope I actually haven't hung any! :< I never have had a reason, although I do eye those paper kinds…

No, I've never hung lanterns but I'm completely in love with them and always wanted to, just never had anywhere to put them nor an occasion to. But I might have to bite the bullet now and just get some!
I don't hang lanterns for decoration. I really should, because I love them! What a cute new set Kelly!
I love paper lanterns. I was looking to buy some to send to my daughter so she could decorate her dorm room with them. She has a collection hanging in here room hear at home that we have collected over the years. I thought that it would be sweet to send her some pink, white and red to hang for valentine's just to jazz up here space and make her feel right at home. Thanks for the chance to win this amazing set. Soooo cute!
I can't think of a time I have hung lanterns, but it b would ber fun to have a crafty.set.
I adore this set and the design team has just outdone themselves once again! Gorgeous, gorgeous cards. It's late tonight, but I'll visit everyone's blogs personally tomorrow and learn the deets and tell them how inspired I am by their creations!
I love paper lanterns, and I look at them in stores and catalogs every summer, but I've never hung any simply because I don't have a place to hang them. It's a wish of mine though to someday have a beautiful back patio where I can hang paper lanterns and have friends over for outdoor dinner parties!
I love paper lanterns..have made them tons as a child and recently tried making them too! What fun..We hang them out at our new year's day..Love the sparkling lights when they're all up!!
Thanks for another wonderful set!
Tejal
I don't think I have ever hung lanterns before in my life. LoL… This is such an adorable stamp set, Kelly. I'm totally loving the DT samples!
we dont hang lanterns but my friends place looks like a chinese lantern testing factory at new year!!!
I always save up the lanterns for Chinese New Year! And it's so cool that lawn fawn are offering them now as clear stamps! This would be wonderful for making CNY cards!
Oh, I totally have lanterns as decorations on my back deck year round…also, have used them to decorate for baby showers….so much fun!
The Lunar Lights stamp set is really perfect for Chinese New Year and also Mid-Autumn Festival! I really hope there are some Chinese characters in this set or in future sets!
I hang lantern (on my workstation) when Mid-Autumn Festival month arrived which remind me of my childhood memories during the festival!
Sooo cute, loved it when I saw it at the show!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 hugs!!
Oh these are just darling!
Well, I have never had paper lanterns, but this summer I think I might have to get some. Awesome cards, I cant wait to see the whole set!
I have never hung lanterns, but who knows in the future.
Love the Lunar lights. The cards are beautiful. So much talent here.
I have not hung lanterns but would love to hang these (on my cards)
i never hung laterns before and i know for sure i cannot now—my 2 little boys would swing at them as if they were pinatas!!
Love the beautiful colorful samples the design team came up with – can't wait to see the entire stamp set, it looks adorable!
I've never hung lanterns before but love the way they look. Maybe I need to invest in some!
Thanks for the chance to win.
Wow! These projects are all stunning! Love the bright colors. These lanterns are just gorgeous – can't wait to get them!
The samples are just lovely!!! I've never hung lanterns for the intended purpose. I did make some this year with a new die from CHA so those are currently hanging. 😉
I hang lanterns every summer…a simple, beautiful way to cheer up my little patio. 🙂
The set is wonderful, I especially love the colours used. I have never used lanterns but I am certainly motivated to give it a try. : )
LOVE this set- WONDERFUL DT projects! I haven't hung lanterns in the past- I've wanted to but really didn't have anywhere to do it. Now that we've moved to a house with a partially covered deck, it may just happen.
Love the DT projects! I have never hung lanterns as decorations but have always wanted to string some up outside when we entertain.
The cards created are just fabulous….great new set…can't wait to see MORE!!!!!!!!!!
Soooo adorable! Love the idea and the lanterns are sooooo cute!
i have hung paper lanterns in my daughters room…i love these stamps!
What a gorgeous treat bag and cards the DT team has made!
I've never hang any lanterns for decorations myself, but when I was a little girl my mom would hang lanterns and garlands for my birthday. Seeing those cards and the treatbag brings back many great memories.
Marie-Anne
You have all outdone yourselved once again! I love EVERY SINGLE item! All so unique, fun & beautiful!! Kelly Marie this is one beautiful set & thanks for the chance to win!
The only lanters I've ever had were when I decorated our house for my niece's 6th b-day & I loved them.
You asked if I've ever hung lanterns? I will now! Lol. These adorable cards make me want to go out and buy some! Great job, ladies. *smile*
our only lanterns have been camping lights in the tent. Cute set!
I don't hang lanterns, but if I had some like this I probably would! Cute set!
I just love this set! We had some similar lanterns in college that we hung in our apartment, so these take me back there! Thanks again!
This is certainly going to be a "must have" set for me!! And yes, I had one lantern that was made of metal and had cutouts on the sides I used to hang up….I still have them but they just don't match my decor at the moment.
What a beautiful set!! The cards are great, thanks for sharing 🙂
I've never hung lanterns before! I love this set, as well as the projects by the DT!

So cute! No, I've never hung any lanterns, but maybe this summer :o)
AHHHH!!! I am so excited for this stamp set 🙂 lol I love paper lanterns although I have not decorated with them. I would love to decorate a card with lanterns, though! Can't wait for the video!
Beautiful cards! This is a lovely set, I love paper lanterns, I actually have 2 white oval shaped ones hanging over my craft table. Excited about this release, but also looking forward to the other new sets I saw in some CHA pics!
What a timely question for me. Just yesterday I went and purchased some paper lanterns at the Party store to use in a Hawaiian themed wedding shower. All the design team cards are very inspiring.
Yes, My son's birthday is July 4th and I use them every year at his birthday party!
No I don't normally hang lanterns for decoration. I LOVE the set and DT cards today!!
I've never hung lanterns as decoration, but these cards may just inspire me to try it! What a sweet stamp set!
The cards are adorable! No I don't normally hang lanterns, however we are in the process of re-working our backyard and lanterns could be in our future
It's a double woo-hoo day! Not only do I love these lunar lights, but the one brick and mortar store in Illinois you have on your list is only about 15 minutes away from where my dear DIL lives. Hooray! As for hanging lantern lights, I have a vague recollection of some type of outdoor lights like that hanging in our backyard many, many years ago, so long ago in fact, I can't remember for sure. They do bring a smile to my face.
WOW..this is just awesome Set. I have been on the lookout for a good Lantern set and this just might be it. I have very close chinese friends and even though I personally do not do anything for the lantern festival, I celebrate with them and looking forward to owning a cool stamp set that I can use to make cards for my near and dear friends.
Lovin' this set!!!!
My girl use to have one of those huge round lanterns from ikea in her room but she recently changed up her room so she took it down:(
These are gorgeous cards!! Love the lanterns! We don't have any lanterns hanging at our house. 🙁 We do have flower and star lights in our children's rooms though! 🙂
We have one lantern hanging in the nursery to shade the lightbulb. I had hoped to hang several more in another corner, but couldn't get the hooks in the slanted ceiling at 9 months pregnant.
I haven't done it yet, but would love to find some cute ones for my daughter's room. Can't wait to see the rest of the stamps!!
We have a small deck and in the winter we hang colorful lanterns to liven it up a bit, it is so nice looking out and not seeing blah. 🙂 Love this set, have been excited about it since I caught my first glance. Can't wait to get it, or win it 🙂
I don't usually hang lanterns for decoration but these adorable new stamps make me want to! Or at least hang them as decoration on a card : )
What a great set, Kelly! I love it! I remember when we used to light these lanterns when we were kids. And this set can be used for so many occassions! Love your DT works.
how luvly the all lanterns are!!! DT's cards are amazing! I, esp. luv those ones with Cheerful colors! Maybe cuz, it's too cooold here and thinking of SPRING to arrive every single day!! lol 🙂
Fabulous!!! I love the fact that the set includes both large laterns and a banner-like row of small laterns. Very trendy! Alas, I never hang lanterns. They do, however, really add a festive touch to a party.
gorgeous set..and very unique! So excited =)
no i haven't but it would be really fun!!!!
What a gorgeous peek – this set is sure to be a winner judging by those inspiring cards!
I love lanterns and have a set of fairy lights in the shapoe of mini lanterns – so pretty! Thanks for the giveaway chance
So FUN! I don't think I've ever hung lanterns- but if I had some this cute I sure would!!! 😀
I have never hung lanterns in my life. I have hung a pinata before, lol! Cute set Kelly! And your DT outdid themselves this time! Gorgeous projects!
Cute examples–I don't think I have ever hung lanterns for decoration.
We have hung summer lanterns on the patio before and of course the bug zappers come in nice decorative lanterns now. Would love a chance to win the new stamps
I love this set! The cards are gorgeous–wowsers! I've never hung lanterns, but I grew up in the southwest and we put out luminarias at Christmas time. The rectangular lantern in your set reminds me of one (if it was on the ground). Your stamps are so great!
I use to use a lot of paper lanterns for decoration, or as a lamp, etc etc. love them!
This new set is so cute and perfect for this time of year! I have some indoor lanterns that have bases and wee lightbulbs. So pretty!
I love the lantern set! I actually have a hanging paper lantern in my room as part of the decor.
I haven't used lanterns for decorating but my daughter has them in her bedroom. Cute stamps, glad you have different sizes. Thanks.
LOVE the lanterns. I've not used them but still find them adorable!
I haven't hung lanterns – too many midges to party outside here after dark!
I love all the bright and cheerful
samples of this adorable set. Looks
perfect for paper piecing.
I've never hung paper lanterns, but I love the wrought iron lanterns in my backyard. They are so pretty all lit up at night.
gorgeous
I have never hung real lanterns, but I do love them. You have inspired me to do so. I seriously love every single lantern card!!
I've never hung paper lanterns but yours are so cute that I might just be inspired to hang some at our next party! Fabulous cards!
We hang paper lanterns during our annual Dreadlocks and Birkenstocks party in the summer! They are so much fun!
This looks like a really FUN set! I have 3 egg shaped lanterns in soft, Spring colors, that I hang from my kitchen light in the Spring. LOVE lanterns!
this is gorgeous.yes, i love to hang lanterns during christmas. 🙂
I love the cute samples from the
design team of this adorable set! I
have always wanted a lantern type of
lamp shade to use in our house.
I had some hanging in my backyard canopy. A very nice way to add some soft lighting during those hot summer nights.
Love the stamps. Hope I win!
Oh how I love paper lanterns! We use them every year for my daughter's birthday party (this year was orange, yellow, green and brown for her Monarch party), our annual neighborhood party, and for our annual Tierney Tiki Party! We love parties… This will be an excellent set to make the invitations this year, thanks for the opportunity to win!
Oh my goodness, this set looks super duper cute and the samples are FANTASTIC!!!! I've never hung lanterns before, but I always LOVE the way they look in magazines and design catalogs!
love this lantern set! I hadn't hung them before but did make some with the kids at a chinese new year party this year and hung them!
I hang rose lights up on occasion! They are quite similar.
Such cute stamps!! My plan is to actually hang paper lanterns in my new craft room when we move. Some small ones. Give some mood lighting
Oh I love Lunar Lights! I think it's my favorite stamp set at the moment! I love to hang paper lanterns outdoors in the summer time…

No, I dont have any patio, garden or backyard to hang them, but I wish I had! Your lanterns are beautiful as are the creations of these talented girls!!!
Long, long ago, when I was in my twenties, I had a paper lantern light shade. I thought it was so cool. Long gone by now, and I haven't ever hung festive paper lanterns (other than kid's craft homemade). I may have to find some. These cards are some of the cutest things I've seen in a long time! I really adore them. Great idea for a stamp set; lots of versatility. A must have.
I've been SO stinkin' excited for this set ever since I saw Latisha's card before CHA… Can't wait!!!
Everyone's cards are so great! I actually have paper lanterns hanging in my bedroom!! They are just for decor and don't have a light in them…but I love them!!
So far I've never hung lanterns myself… but they are so fun and festive, I may have to give it a try!
DEniseB
Wow ladies, you really brought out the spring colors this time – just what I needed! 😀 Good job all of you <3
Love the treat bag and those yummy Chinese candies inside! I used to have big latern lights at a house that I rented, but I have since gotten rid of them. I can't wait to see the stamp set! Gung Hay Faht Choy!
I have never hung actual lanterns, but I have hung those paper star lamps. LOVE the look of lanterns maybe I should do that this year…
We hang paper lanterns for decorations for very special events. They are so bright and cheery and a talking point too.
Loving this set! I had paper lanterns in my room at college, I loved the bold pop of color they added!
When I was a kid, we would hang lanterns at my grandmothers house in Germany for carnival…I was always fascinated by the real candles inside. I have a couple of paper lanterns now, but they don't hold lights. I've been looking for new lanterns to use this summer in our yard, so this set is very timely! 🙂
recently, i used white paper lanterns at my daughter's 17th birthday party. i had twinkle lights everywhere outside and paper lanterns scattered around…SO MUCH FUN!
I love these lanterns! They are so versatile! The cards are all *amazing*! My favourite is Latisha's card!
I have hung lanterns in my bedroom and the other day I realized I had some nice blue ones I never put up. I should bring them out to chase away the winter blues. (Tho, truth be told I <3 winter!)
I have always admired the adorable lanterns hanging in outside patios.They look so festive! I would love to add some to my patio this summer. Pier I usually comes out with some darling sets.!
I have always enjoyed looking at fun lanterns. They are always so bright and cheerful. I have never used them myself…not sure where I would hang them outside my house.
We hung lanterns at my wedding, I think we still have them. I should pull them out.
Fantastic cards.
As a child, I use to. But not any more. However, just looking at lanterns with different patterns and shapes are just really cool! =)
We don't hang lanterns, but we ALWAYS have our party lights (aka white xmas lights) up in the backyard and we turn those on WHENEVER people are over, and sometimes when they're not! It is just so festive!!! Love this stamp set, it makes me wish it wasn't 16 degrees here is North Texas!
I love these! I was once commissioned to make a bridal shower scrapbook/guestbook with a double happiness theme. I was so sad at the difficulty of finding non-stereotypical ethnic items. These are beautiful. Wish I had them then!
The holiday has two other names as well, Losar, or Buddhist New Year! Being a Buddhist, myself, I find it challenging to find many crafting items that celebrate our holidays so I can't wait to get ahold of these. 🙂 Thanks for thinking of us! (And an auspicious year of the rabbit to you!)
super cute little lanterns! i love all the different designs that are shown here! 🙂
I love the new release. I've never hung lanterns, but these would be awesome for summer part invites. The DT did an awesome job, and I can't wait to see what else they come up with.
No lanterns here. But I love all the DT cards. The purple one is awesome.
I love ALL your stamp sets, but this one is the cutest! I can just see the lanterns hanging across my cards and other projects.
I always look forward to new stamps from you.
