Birthday Candles!

It sure seems like I've been making alot of birthday cards lately, doesn't it? Alot of folks have birthdays in August and September! I have one more for you today. It's really simple, but I was pleased with the result.



I used Birthday Bash to cut the candles. For each candle, I used a lighter shade for the melted wax portion on the top. I embossed each candle using a different Cuttlebug folder and inked them to help it show up better.


I stamped the sentiment and then added doodling with a black pen. Super simple!! I also added yellowish-gold glitter to the center of the flames to make them sparkle. I made this on my gypsy and I'm sorry to say I didn't write down the size I cut the candles. I want to say they were around 1.5" - 2".
Thanks for stopping by today!
Blessings,
Cheryl
