How to Make a Poinsettia Christmas Candle – Poinsettia Petals – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Stamped Candles

I love stamping my own candles. They look so good!! I made some use the poppy stamp set and gifted them to my neighbour who is an oncologist at the local hospital.

This candle is made using the fabulous Poinsettia Petals stamp set. I’ve used this stamp set for a card before and the die set for another card. In order to make this candle I stamped on white tissue paper using the non-shiny side. I stamped in Stazon and then coloured in using the Real Red and Crushed Curry Stampin’ Write markers. It came out well don’t you think?

One trick I would like to share is that I stamped all the flowers and then coloured them all in. I then cut around around the flowers leaving as little space tissue paper as possible but no being too concerned about it either. I positioned and heat set each flower individually. This worked better for me than trying to do all three in one go.

I have fallen in love with the Poppy suite of products in the Spring / Summer catalogue. Here I’ve used the Painted Poppies stamp set to create this printed poppy candle. I’ve not printed a candle in years and was so please with the way it turned out.

I’ve shown this candle in the packaging I created, making the packaging will be my next video. I’ve used a very simple white pillar candle that has been sitting in my stash for simply ages. I wanted to create a gift as of course, we can’t go shopping at the moment.

how did i do it?

I used some tissue paper from my stash to make this. If you have bought the shimmer detailed laser cut designer series paper (DSP) you will find tissue paper separating each page. This is a perfect way to upcycle it. I measured the circumference and height of the candle and then cut out a piece of tissue paper to match.

I’ve stamped using an archival quality ink such as stazon so it won’t run when heated. The colouring in did pose a problem to me as I was afraid that it might run when heated or bleed out of the lines. I decided just to use the Stampin’ Write Markers in the aptly named Poppy Parade. This worked perfectly!!! A word of warning though, it doesn’t bleed out of the lines but did go straight through the paper. I coloured in on my grid paper to stop my desk looking like a murder scene!!
