Make Cards With Candles

October 5, 2014 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

Make Quick Cards With Candles

There have been a lot of birthdays in our extended family recently and our card supply was getting low. I was inspired by this card that I spotted on Pinterest to make a series of cards featuring birthday candles.

I raided my birthday candle stash and stuck the candles onto some nice white card using double sided tape. I stamped a simple message stamped underneath using a Papyrus Rolling Alphabet Stamp.

Make Quick Cards with Candles

To make cards with candles you need a few simple supplies that you probably already have on hand.  It is a fun craft idea for kids to keep them busy.

      Hi Patti – I bought them a while ago from a local shop, Weigh n Pay. They don’t have an online store. I have found similar items on Etsy – if you look for Cupcake picks.
