How stinkin' cute is this??? I got the idea from Jill Hilliard – I met her at Founder's Circle this fall – she's really funny!
I thought this fun Jolly Holiday DSP was the perfect match for those mischievous looking elves from the Holiday Lineup set – one of my FAV's! (I know…I have alot of those!)
How in the heck did I do this??? It's kind of the same idea as the fall candle we made last month in my stamp clubs. You take 4 layers of tissue paper, sandwich them between two pieces of typing weight paper and punch them with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch. Then while they are still stacked together – punch a 1/8" hole in the center. Stamp and color in your images. Lay the tissue paper on your tealight candle – pulling the wick through the punched hole and heat it a little with your heat tool until it melts into the wax – WAAAA LAAAA!!!! It's that simple!!!!

Can you give the dimentions of the box? Thanks, Sue.
Love the idea of the stamped tealights and those elves are perfect. Add some of the glass glitter to the outside of the holder and you have even more voila!
Great project! Are these safe to actually burn or are they for decorative purposes only? Thanks.

I, too, would like some more info for the box. Is it a diecut or something original?
Please send me information on how to make the box and how do you put these pictures on a candle. I love your candles and would love to learn how to make them. Thanks so much
