Thanks for stopping by my blog today.
Today I decided to have a go at adding an image to a candle. I have been told verbally what to do when I attended the 'Craft Barn Extravaganza' & I have looked up videos on 'you tube'.
I must say I was quite pleased with how it turned out.
What do you Think? Any tips how to make the colours brighter, or is this how it is when it get's transferred ? I did do a bit more high lighting once it was on the candle!
I shall be entering my candle into the following challenges:
LOTV- Ideas to inspire - Anything but a card competition.
WHAT I USED:
IMAGE: Unmounted rubber stamp from LOTV.
PROMARKERS: Used to colour image.
PEARL: From Meiflower.
FLOWERS: Mixture from WOC, craft shop & won as part of blog candy.
CANDLE: From £1 shop (just in case in went wrong)!!
I think these candles would make ideal Christmas presents.
Look forward to reading your comments & shall be over to visit you too x

ReplyDeleteTotally gorgeous Sally.
Colours looked really good in your photograph and probably better than I've ever achieved, I never seem to be able to get a really strong colour.
