memory candle

I made a memory candle using the Over the rainbow stamp set from Chocolate Baroque - the silhouette worked out nicely as we have had 2 all-black cats in the past!

Very easy to do, stamp onto white tissue paper, colour with pens then heat seal; onto the candle.


I would like to add this to these challenges

remember your pet day

 Apparently Wednesday 5th July is Remember Your Pet Day - surprising what pops up on facebook, but fits in nicely with my shares today!

I loved using the new- last -month stamps designed by Donna St Pierre for Chocolate Baroque, Heavenly Pets and Over the rainbow and these are some of my makes


The first card uses stamps from over the rainbow, with the rainbow stamped onto a scrap of paper coloured with brusho powders and white embossed. This was cut into an arch shape before the cutout silhouette cat was added. The dog was stamped onto the base card blank along with the sentiment add the arch shape glued on






Here the rainbow was stmaped opnto another brusho background and coloured with pens after stamping the cat. the pawprints in the background are from the same set, as is the sentiment.


Here the three silhouettes were stamped onto another piece of brusho background that uses the feather image from I shall be your wings - sorry, I do love my brusho powders!
They are here again , this time with the feather from Heavenly pets stamped and embossed in white and the dog image cutout and added




















The final two cards use the main images from heavenly pets, with brusho again for the background of the dog.The rainbpw image was stamped over this, then the dog angel stamped onto spare card, coloured with pencils and fussy cut out then glued in place.




The cat image was just stamped onto white card and coloured with pencils, but you haven't escaped the brusho curse as the background uses another piece of brusho coloured card

Often it is difficult to know what to use if you want to send a card to someone who has lost a treasured furry friend, but these stamps are perfect
