Birthday Card and Candle

 This card was made using my house mouse stamp

Coloured with my promarkers

I then cut it out using my Marianne Dies

Which gives a nice lace effect

The sentiment is stamped and is from a See D set

Buttons from stash

Ribbons was some blog candy I was sent and I ruffed it for effect

Papers came for a Docraft Goodie bag

 This box I made the old fashioned way with my craft knife and ruler

Finished it with a ribbon and some flowers

Inside the box is this candle I decorated

using the same House Mouse Stamp and the See D's sentiment

stamped onto white tissue paper

I coloured the image with my promarkers

Then used my heat gun to melt it in to the candle

using greaseproof paper to protect candle

as recommend by fellow bloggers
