C is for Candle

Todays Christmas card is a made using a lovely candle stamp I bought on ebay. I have paper pieced and decoupaged the candle using some free download papers that I had saved. I glittered the candle "light" but I think i would like to glaze the wax dripping down the side so I will have to get some 3d gloss or the like. I have also inked around the edges of the layering with some vintage photo distress ink. I added some red beads as holly berries to the decoupaged holly leaves. To finish I added this fab green and gold ribbon that I received in a swap, I love it.





I am entering this into the following challenges
A Spoonful Of Sugar - relish to embellish
Wee Memories - anything goes
