Wunderle Wednesdays Stamp Class

Sorry the picture isn't the best but I had fun showing the girls a couple of different techniques.

The first is putting a stamped image on a candle.


This is very easy way to create a custom candle.
1) stamp your image on tissue paper.  I used the Christmas stamp set in chocolate chip.
2) tear or cut the tissue paper around your image as close as can.
3) cut a piece of wax paper large enough to cover the image and wrap all the way around the candle      and enough to hold in your hand so you won't get burned by the heat tool.
4) position the stamped image where you want it on the candle and wrap the tissue paper around the image and the candle.
5) use the heat tool to heat the stamp image on the candle only long enough until the wax paper changes.
6) after heating gently roll the candle on the table
7) slowly remove the wax paper and let cool




Our 2nd project is the fancy favor die cut box

Very Vanilla CS
DSP Be of Good Cheer
Chocolate Chip CS
Gumball Green CS
Stamped tree from Christmas Lodge stamp set using Gumball green ink pad
I used the anywhere glue stick and rubbed the glue over the entire piece of very vanilla CS with the tree stamped on it.
I took a used dryer sheet and flatten it out
after flatten I glued it to the stamped image
Smooth out and let dry for a few minutes
I then used the dazzling diamonds and sprinkled it all over the dryer sheet and then tapped the excess off.
The card is ready to assemble.
Add gumball green statin stitched ribbon, Crochet Trim and an Antique Brad
Watch the snow glisten on the tree!

Baby Shower Card

This is a baby shower card I made for my cousin Amy's baby shower.  She's due September 1st and we can't wait to see the little guy!

I used DSP from a retired simply Scrappin' kit. CS is marina mist and chocolate chip.  The stamp set is also a retired set CHOO CHOO train and Full of Life stamp set for the saying.
