Today I decided to do something other than a card, I have been working on a bunch of decorations that I can’t wait to show…but I do still have to send out my Halloween cards so there will be plenty of them too….but with all these decoration ideas I’m getting from this hop…how can you not!?!?
So I made a few candles…I have been wanting to try out this technique ever since I got my heat gun… I got these candles and some tissue paper stamped my CTMH stamp on with black stayzon ink and then heated it…so cool I want to make a bunch more and maybe give them away or something!
don’t forget to stop by the S&S forum and check that place out…we all have so much fun and we are getting allot of new members so you won’t be new alone =) That’s all I have for today so have fun horrifyingly hopping along, or sinisteringly lurking, and I’ll see ya when I see ya…
here is a little more details on how I did this...really its so simple don't over think it...
- stamp you image on white tissue paper (used for gift bags)
- cut out your image as close as you can get
- position image over candle
- heat image onto candle...just wave the heat gun back and forth until the image melts into the candle.
and thats all there is too it...I hope this helps
