Candle decorating

Hello again,

I didn't realize how easy it is to decorate a candle.










Stamp your image onto a piece of white tissue paper. Cut around the image to remove the excess tissue paper, but you don't have to be too fussy. Place the stamped tissue paper onto the candle, then wrap a piece of waxed paper around the candle and hold firmly. This keeps the image in the correct position as well as being able to hold the candle. Using the heat gun, heat till the white colour of the tissue paper disappears. It doesn't take long. Remove the waxed paper, and the image is on the candle. How simple is that!!! I will be making lots more of these. What a great easy gift.

I used Rich Razzleberry (#126950) and Gumball Green inks (#126861). To decorate around the base I used the Rich Razzleberry from the Brights Colour Collection DSP Stack (#130134) with the Scallop Trim Border punch (#118402). I then added a piece of Rich Razzleberry 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain ribbon (#126876). The stamp set is Everything Eleanor (#124164).


Thought for the day-





That's all for today,
Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊

Papillon Potpourri and Bitty Butterfly punch

Hi,

I have stamped the small butterfly onto the card then attached another butterfly on top for a 3D effect.





The Cardstock is Whisper White (#106549), Bermuda Bay (#131286) and the Brights DSP Stack (#130134). The ink is Bermuda Bay (#131171). The sentiment is from Petite Pairs (#122497) and punched with the Postage Stamp (#122344). The Bitty Butterfly punch is used for the butterflies. These were then attached using Stampin' Dimensionals in the centre of the butterfly so the wings can be lifted. I added Dazzling Details (#124117) to the body of the butterflies.


Thought for the day-



With only a couple of days till Christmas, I hope you are all organized and relaxed.

Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊
Lesley.

Washi Tape and Papillon Potpourri

Welcome again,

Yes, I have used the Washi Tape again today. I hadn't used it for some time, but after using it on yesterday's card, thought I would continue with it today.




I love these bright colours of Pacific Point (#116202), Daffodil Delight (#121680) and Melon Mambo (#119980) along with Whisper White card (#106549).
The inks are also Pacific Point (#126951), Daffodil Delight (#126944) and Melon Mambo (#126948). The stamp sets are Papillon Potpourri (#123759) and Sketched Birthday (#130426). I used the Bitty Banners Framelits, as well as the Scallop Trim Border Punch and Elegant Butterfly punch (#127526). The ribbon is Daffodil Delight 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain (#126872). The Pearl Basic Jewels (#119247) were added to the butterflies.

I spent this morning cooking for Christmas. I made a fruit cake, which I guess I should have made a few weeks ago, and lots of nibblies. These included apricot balls, apricot slice, macadamia slice, ginger coated in chocolate, apricot and chocolate and triple layer fudge. Yum!!!
Here's a sample of these delicious goodies which I will have to try to resist till Christmas Day.




Till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊
Lesley.

Thinlits label card

Hello stampers,

I need an engagement card for my niece and her fiance, and I love this Thinlits Label card (#133479) with the extension.







I cut the Shimmery White card (#121717) 13.9cm x 22cm. This fits in nicely to the Framelit as shown.



There will be a bit of a score line at the egde of the Framelit, which is where you will fold the card, as well as the normal score lines.

I embossed the front with the Perfect Polka dots folder (#117335). Polka Dot Parade DSP (#126902) and Champagne Glimmer Paper (#127885) are used on the card. Congratulations and Best Wishes are from Express Yourself stamp set, with "&" from Fabulous Phrases (#120501). The ink used is Real Red (#106578). The hearts are from the Hearts A Flutter set (#129252), using the coordinating Hearts A Flutter Framelits (#130159) to cut them. I used the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch on the Glimmer Paper.

Thought for the day-





Still lots to do,
So till next time,
😊Happy Stamping😊
Lesley.
