I made these for this months H&M Blog Hop where we were to use a theme of Festive Favorites and make anything except a card. I cut a piece of WalMart Winter Textured CS to wrap around a Mandarine Orange scented candle. I stamped "PERCY BUILDS FROSTY" in black on white CS then colored the buttons, nose, gloves, Frosty's head and paper pieced the scarf on Percy. The sentiment is from "ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS" stamped in bashful blue and matted on blue textured CS from the same stack. On top of the candle is a piece of WM Festive Holiday CS Sour Cream Container filled with Hersheys Kisses. I stamped the sentiment from "ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS" stamped in real red. Standing up next is a small note book with pen recovered with green CS and trimmed with red CS using the Fiskars Snowflake border/emboss punch. The Candy Cane is from "CHRISTMAS IS THE TIME FOR COOKIES" and was stamped in real red on white. Then colored with real red marker and covered the red with versa mark. I applied some candy cane EP and heat embossed it. The last item is from a previous Techinque Lovers Challenge SWEET CENTERPIECES. I made my folds then on the 4 corners I stamped the snowflake from "CREATE A BULB" in versamark then applied white embossing powder and heat set it. I rolled a thin strip of CS for the center and punched 2 large snowflakes, glued together with the stick in the center. All images and sentments can be found at H & M STAMP COMPANY.
