Halloween Pumpkin Lantern Craft

Here's a really simple Halloween Jack-O-Lantern Pumpkin lantern craft idea from Japan.
The example pictured here used a kind of colored corrugated cardboard or plastic, but you could easily use orange card stock. Follow the link for a full picture tutorial complete with cute kids.

Materials:

• orange colored corrugated cardboard or card stock
• green felt
• scissors
• black marker
• tape
• craft knife (adult only)
• tea light candle
• stapler

Directions:

1. Cut a piece of orange cardboard or card stock about 12 x 5 inches.
2. Draw a Jack-O-Lantern face in the middle with a black marker.
3. Have an adult cut out the face with a craft knife.
4. Round off the top corners with scissors so it has a nice round pumpkin shape. The back should be about 1 inch wide.
5. Roll into a tube and staple or glue in the back.
6. Cut a green triangle from felt or paper and tape to the top for a leaf.
7. Cut a  tea light candle in the back and let your little Jack-O-Lantern shine.
