The theme for today's blog hop is "Handmade Easter, ANYTHING BUT A CARD". I have a non-chocolate themed project to share with you today. Shame on me (I know). The Easter Bunny would be disappointed, I fully realize that. I am sure we will have enough chocolate hanging around here in another month or so though. As well, I am still trying to burn through that extra winter weight. lol So yes, today's project features one of my most favourite Stampin' Up! sets from the annual catalogue called "Tranquil Tulips". Tulips are my favourite flower, and there is an abundance of them around here come spring. To change it up, I decided to stamp my tulips here today on an LED wax candle. It turned out even better than I had imagined.
If you are unsure how to stamp on candles, well it is quite simple. You actually stamp your image on a piece of white tissue paper first. You then cut the stamped image out with your paper snips. Next step is you position it where you would like it on your candle (ink side down with the ink facing the candle). You then wrap a sheet of wax paper over the image, and heat it with your heat tool. The heat tool will melt the image into your candle so that the two become one (be careful not to overheat it). Lastly, you pull away the wax paper and voila! You will have yourself a beautiful stamped candle like the one that you see here today.

ReplyDeleteCarolynn, your candle is gorgeous, I will have to look around for these candles, I am too scared to have candles burning, but LED is fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
