because cards are my passion. I had an idea picked out to alter something, but my search at thrift stores, for the item I had in mind, was not successful. I decided to come home and stamp on a candle.
To do the candle stamping, you need to color your image on tissue paper. Cut the image out, place it on your candle in the place you want the image, take a large piece of wax paper and wrap it around the candle with your image in place. Once I had my image in place, I took my heat gun and heated the image. You will be able to tell when the image is done, the wax paper takes on a little different look.
Be careful and don't burn your fingers or hand while doing this.
Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to go over to Speedy Fox to see what my teamie's have made.
