KATZELKRAFT DAY again - time flies!

I made three candles - to brighten the darker days of December !
I have always wanted to give this a try, so now was the time... One thing less on my TO DO list.. LOL

I used blotting-paper to stamp the images from the Fleurs stamp set on, with a darkbrown solvent ink. I coloured them with watercolor pencils, and distressed the bottom line with green and brown.  Tear the top line off the blotting paper. 

****
Glue the blotting paper onto the candle with a glue stick, just to get it to stay in place.
Heat it with a heattool to melt the outer part of the candle (just a little bit!), and smooth out the blotting paper onto the candle.

I think I am going to make lots more to give away as a gift!
Enjoy STAMPING!

  6. So 'n goeie idee en 'n uitstekende geskenk. Ek het jare gelede decopage gedoen, en heelwat kerse gedoen en weggegee, maar ek het nooit op kerse gestempel nie. Dankie vir die inspirasie!
