Some of my crafty friends have made & displayed lovely candles which they had stamped onto - so I just had to give it a try!!! I thought I'd use my new Tilda stamp and a cream candle bought from Asda. I followed the instructions on the Splitcoaststampers tutorial, by stamping Tilda onto white tissue paper, then I coloured her with my Sharpie markers, cut her out & placed the image onto the candle, then covered with greaseproof paper & used my heat gun...........and was thrilled to see the image transferred onto the candle. I then re-stamped Tilda & followed the same process.
I'm quite pleased with my 1st attempt & hopefully I'll get better!!! I have a feeling these may prove popular at Christmas - What do you think?? All comments appreciated. Thanks xx
