         <title>Staffordshire University</title>
         <description><![CDATA[Back in January we featured the wonderful designs created by Staffordshire University third year students in response to our ‘Supporting & Inspiring Innovation within Education’ initiative.  We were so overwhelmed by the standard of work and level of effort put into the brief by all of the students, however there were two students, who we felt had particularly embraced the brief and produced work of such a high commercial standard that meant the products could go to market immediately.

We commissioned Claire Mayes, who designed the paper Heart Lanterns during the brief (which can be downloaded from our site) to develop the theme further by creating further paper lantern designs and in response Claire has come up with these delightful paper Daisy Chain Lanterns.

<img alt="lantern.jpg" src="http://www.inspiremepapers.co.uk/blog/lantern.jpg" width="470" height="313" />

Perfect for brightening up any room this summer or for using as decoration at a summer party or BBQ, the Daisy Lantern pack can be <a href="http://www.inspiremepapers.co.uk/account/">downloaded</a> with free templates and instructions to cut around using our papers.]]></description>
