But I have found that it is almost impossible to make a mistake, this picture for example, almost ended up in the bin, then I played with it a bit more and got this lovely effect. I've used Paint Shop pro to add the text.
I have a few craft vouchers so may use some to get the stylus, then I can do more intricate work, and the fantasy work. I also had an attempt at using a stamp with the wax, well it worked, sort of, I realised that you need to use a silhouette stamp, or a solid stamp, I have got a few fairy stamps, and lots of tree stamps, so I will have another go.
Tomorrow I need to get back to some crafting, got a card to finish and need to get going on the candles. Those are the candles for the wedding, I dumped the idea of using the waterslide decal, it was just far too fiddly, I've found some A4 sized clear stickers, and they work a treat. I've also used them for the other candles, to put on small quotes, and you can stamp onto them to.
Today I picked up a copy of the 365 scrap magazine, I've been keeping a lookout for it, finally Smiths had it on the shelf. Quite impressed, lots of new ideas, some to try and some to admire.
Now do I take a trip to Hobbycraft tomorrow? Or wash the car? Yes I realise that to most crafters that is a no brainer, but car is in desperate need of a wash!
Enjoy your weekend, many thanks for stopping by.

Hi Cassidy! Very interesting seeing what you're doing with your wax stuff. Some of it looks like folded silk fabric - a really neat effect! Why you would want to do more ironing though - for fun??? - escapes me!
Hobbycraft or car wash, mmmmmm. . . . tough one that! There's a car wash not far from our HC where these chaps do it all for you and for an obscene amount of money - obscene because you wouldn't catch me doing it for so little! Car washing is not my thing!
Have a good day tomorrow.
