I [ heart ] Snowflakes! (blog hop!!!!)
Welcome to Kimberlight and the 12 Blogs of Christmas!
Please get comfy, and enjoy the ride! After you’ve looked around my little blog, please move on to see ‘Stampin with Val‘, she’s a lovely lady and ever so creative.
I’m loving stamping on candles at the minute, so here is a lovely candle with bashful blue snowflakes that have been coated with Dazzlin’ Diamonds. The snowflakes are very subtle, more subtle than I intended really, but adding the strip of double stitched grograin ribbon brings out more of the colour. Invite me over for a Christmas party this year and you will win one of these!!!! I also must note that I managed to do most of this candle with a 3 year old on my lap! Now THAT is amazing!
And using the same Snowburst stamp set (page 23 of the Stampin’ Up! Idea Book and Catalogue), here is a Christmas Card that doesn’t have any red or green! the base is Kraft card, with a bit of Bella Bleu Designer Paper. The Ink is Night of Navy and the ribbon is white 1/4” grograin. The ribbon is attached with sticky strip and maneuvered into place one little loop at a time.
Please leave me a comment, I would love to know who stopped by today!
Now, continue your blog hop on the 12 blogs of Christmas by visiting Val on ‘Stampin’ with Val‘ or you can go round the circuit the other direction by visiting Amanda at the ‘Craft Spa‘ – either way, you’ll eventually end up back with me!

Lovely projects Kara. I rather like the subtlety (sp? lol) of the candle. I haven’t ever tried stampin’ on candles but will have a go. Thanks for sharing with us.
Off to the next blog on the cruise.
