Inky Impressions DT - Inspirational Christmas

Afternoon Peeps! Hope your weekend has been good so far. Mine's been fab just a bit hectic hehe. Todays project is for the Inky Impressions Inspirational Blog and our team has decided to spice things up a little and offer you something other than a card. Must be honest I was so nervous as I just luv making my cards but once I got into this I thoroughly enjoyed myself so hopefully this will be the start of many more projects.After seeing this gorgeous project on Tammy's blog I thought I would give it a go myself and have a little play. If your keen to make one yourself you will find the tutorial here. Thanks ladies for the inspiration. The dps I have used are My Minds Eye, Signature Christmas stack.
Here is a close up of the adorable stamp available from Inky Impressions store called Sophia's Sweet Snowman which I have coloured in with my Copics. The lace is from my stash and the poinsettias from Wild Orchid Crafts.
View from the top showing the candle and pearls.
I bought a plain candle and stamped the same image onto tissue paper and coloured it in with my Copics then placed the tissue paper over the candle and covered it with greaseproof paper and heated it with my heatgun and voila one stamped image on the candle. Hope I've explained that well enough for those who would like to give it a try. Thank you for stopping by. Lotsa luv, hugs xxxx
