Obsession with candles

Ok I admit I have an obsession with candles after checking out the Heidi Swapp blog! Went to Hobby Lobby today and snatched up a bunch of candles, they were 50% off - who could pass that up --certainly not me!! The big brown ones I got on clearance for $4.00 each, regular price was $19.99!!! What a bargain! Whoot whoot!!


What fun this has been! Still have more candles to do, however, that will wait until tomorrow!


Here are some of my creations:

Tag # 6

Woo hoo I finished tag #6!!!!!! I just need to do the first 4 tags now!!


Two pics- the first one is ok I think the first is clearer ---**note to self: learn how to take good pics***LOL


I used diamond for "ice" by the car...this was so much fun to make - substituted the dictionary page for a regular book page, think it came out nice. What a mess I made with all my stamp sets out, ink pads, glitter and flock.....maybe the crafty cleaning angels will come and clean up while I am sleeping....inky fingers crossed! X


I also made another candle - Now I am on the hunt for inexpensive pillar candles - this technique is great for gifts! The first one is a side view - I left the bumps, in person it looks nice!





Looking forward to tag #7 ----

Enjoy the pics.........going to clean up my inky fingers and hit the sack, early work day!

Peace & Love!

Tag #5

Finished up my Secret Santa gifts! I sat down and worked on tag #5 today- of course I am out of sync with the tags, need to do 1,2,3 & 4 as well! That will come when I have more time. Tag #6 is fun too, I am going to work on that later today and post tomorrow!

This tag was cool - some things I did not have, so much like everyone else I improvised and I think it turned out well.

Here is the link to T!M's blog so you can see what it is supposed to look like and the instructions as well: http://http//timholtz.typepad.com/my_weblog/ - He is one ispiring man!

Here is my tag:

I had to put it on the scanner cause the picture did not come out too good - the ornaments are a little off due to being on the scanner. Its a cool tag if I must say so myself!

Wax experience

LOL gotcha on that title uh?

Well I was browsing blogs yesterday and checked one of my favs Heidi Swapp, she is so cute! She did a video on these fab candles http://heidiswapp.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/12/ok-make-candles.html and of course I had already bought some candles! Here is my result, while I did not print from my printer to the tissue paper, my printer is picky about what it prints on and my luck it would have jammed! I stamped using Tim Hotlz stamps! I think they turned out great! Hopefully the person who I have for the Secret Santa at work does not read my blog!


Tim did his 12 tags of Christmas again this year and for the first time I have not made one......yet...this may change I am in the creating mood and my fingers are inky already!!
