I've been wanting to do a Stampendous challenge & finally got something made. The challenge is to create a gift HERE. I don't need anything for Mother's Day or graduation, but I always need a little something for people at work. I bought this little candle last year & didn't get it decorated, so decided that would be a good project. I stamped the designs from Stampendous Bold Blossoms set on tissue paper using Delicata Golden Glitz. The images are adhered using wax paper & my heat gun. I added some red dot stickers, gold silk ribbon & a red rose to finish it off.
This spring I've had lots of birds at my feeders & finally got a shot of a pair of goldfinches that come frequently & stay a long time, unless the dogs or I spook them! Aren't they beautiful?
Great project! I haven't tried that technique yet. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty gift for a lucky recipient, Greta! The red and gold go together so beautifully. I've never tried this technique before, but always wanted to. And the goldfinches look so lovely :)
