Christmas Candles

I was excited to get these sweet candles from Reverse Confetti!

I didn't have any candles in my collection and these are super cute.

I stamped the candles with Kraft ink and colored the area that looked like melted wax with a Versa Marker and embossed with white embossing powder.  Then I sprinkled some Stampendous Shabby White Embossing Enamel and heated.  It left some wonderful texture and some gold flecks.  I added a very delicate Confetti Cuts Wreath and a Hoppin Dots Quick Card Panel.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Your kind comments are always appreciated.

Seize the Birthday - Twine or String

It's time for another Seize the Birthday challenge.  Seize the Birthday is always "Anything Goes" as long as it's birthday.  This time we have a topping of Twine or String.  The topping is always an option.

I saw this stamp set over at Papertrey Ink and had to have it.  Aren't these little candles cute!  They make such a fun birthday card.  The set is called Polka Dot Parade #12.  I paired it with some bright, happy patterned paper from Gina K. Designs called Birthday Hoot.  I was able to add the topping this week of twine and a blue button.  Thanks for stopping by to look!
