Boo Halloween Candle

Here's another candle, i know why they use white candles for this, because every flaw shows, this candle has more dings in it than an old car! I did both sides this time, and added buttons and ribbon. I'm not happy with how the cat came out, but i'll give it to my girl, she'll like it.

Spooky Candle

The first Halloween project of the season.
I saw this technique last year during a Blog hop, but can't remember who to give credit to.
You stamp the image you want on the shiny side of tissue paper, this particular candle image i didn't color because of the orange candle, but for Xmas you would use a white candle, and color it with Primsa colored pencils, which is fairly easy to do. Cut out image as close as possible, lay on candle then wrap a piece of wax paper around it to hold in place, heat with a heat gun, be careful not to melt the candle ( as you can see i did on this one slightly, whoops), you'll see how it starts to melt into it. It sound's complicated but it really isn't.I used two stamps on this and masked one of them, added some ribbon and a charm.
