Tinkering with Tealights
Just had to share a fun new gift idea I learned about at my last stamp club yesterday! My SU demonstrator had us make a gift box that holds 4 tea lights. The snowflake is stamped on punched tissue paper circles. A small center hole is punched to accommodate the wick, then you heat it several seconds with a heat gun and it melts into the wax. Here is a link to Tanya's online tutorial for a detailed description of the process. The box can be made from a single sheet of CS. You can also fit bite size candies (like Snickers bars) into this box.
