Tildas in Spooky Town

Hi all, did you enjoy my tutorial on applying stamps to candles if not it's the post below this one!! For this card i used 2 Magnolia Tildas and Edwins Town stamps. I used my MS PATP Combo Rings, added some glossy bats and a sparkly spider. I created the background myself which i'm very pleased with, i used different greys and a couple of yellows and finished it all off with some ribbon and a charm and a sentiment.

Tilda on a Candle Tutorial

Hi everyone, i thought i would attempt a tutorial for putting stamped images onto candles. I've used Magnolia' Tilda with Cat from the Little Christmas collection and coloured with Promarkers.


  Warning Picture Heavy Post
__________**************________

Products needed are Candle, Tissue Paper and Greaseproof or Baking paper.

Stamp your image onto the tissue paper and colour in. Carefully cut your image out leaving a small edge and place onto candle.

Holding the greaseproof paper tighly around your candle heat it up with your heat tool until the colours appear to show up brighter.

I repeated the process for the stamping on the back of the candle.

I then packaged the candle with cellophane and decorated.

I tied some of my gorgeous roses ribbon prize from Crafty Ribbons, added some real holly leaves, pink poppies and handmade pins.


Around the bottom i added some lace and buttons.

I hope this tutorial was helpful!!
