Sep 8, 2014 | Birthday, Masculine |
From the time that I first looked at the stamp set Gorgeous Grunge, I wanted to use one of the images to make candles.
- My card base is 4-1/4 x 11 Island Indigo cardstock, scored at 5-1/2
- Tangelo Twist adds a pop of color in the next layer.
- Whisper White Cardstock provides a neutral palette for my candles. I inked the Gorgeous Grunge stamp first with Island Indigo Ink & after stamping the image, I thoroughly cleaned the stamp before inking it with Tangelo Twist Ink. This candle is stamped slightly lower and about 1/4" to the left of the first candle image.
- The candle flames are the result of using a Crushed Curry Marker on the largest splat of the smallest stamp from the set. The marker also was used to created the wick for the candle.
- The sentiment is from Sassy Salutations & was inked with Memento Black Ink.
- Black Baker's Twine is wrapped twice around the Whisper White layer & secured. A shorter piece of the same Baker's Twine is threaded through a Crushed Curry Button from the Regal's Pack & then it is tied in a bow.
I am anxious to make this in a variety of colors in order to have some on hand for those "birthday emergencies". With the appropriate color combo, I feel that this would work for just about anyone.

When I first saw the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit at the Stampin' Up! Convention, I thought it was cute but I didn't really think that I would get it because I didn't think it would be very useful. Well, let me tell you, I was so wrong!! Think of all those small items that you need to gift package oe even some chocoalte or other small candies.
Some of these boxes are my creation and some of them I found on Pinterest. They are all over the Internet so I don't know who to give credit to.
Whatever the Holiday, this Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit Die can be used to create a fun 3-D gift package, decoaration, or placecard.
I am showing some of the boxes that I created and I encourage you to share the boxes you have made with me. I would love to see your creations.
My snowman needs work because as he sits now, you cannot open him. But, I will work on it so that his treats can be easily removed without destroying such a cute box.
