I chose to create with candles today. The first project is a pillar candle stamped with the Very Vintage wheel in Marina Mist. Marina Mist taffeta (retired) gives the candle a finished look.
My next project is stamped tea lights in a gift box. I used the small flower from Flower Fest stamped in Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Marina Mist to adorn both the tea lights and the box.

Your pillar candle is stunning! I love how fun the tealights look also.
The marina mist just really sets of the pillar candle and the tea lights are adorable.

What a pretty candle Elizabeth! Marina mist is one of my favorite stampin up blues!
Beautiful job. Love the Marina Mist.
Wonderful projects. Love them both. Love the ribbon on the bottom of the pillar one.
So very pretty! TFS.
Love the candles! You did a great job!
Love the vintage look! The tea lights are beautiful!
I love these ABC hops because there is such variety in projects. Great job!
Candles! Why can't I remember stamping on candle as a gift idea?
These two projects are both awesome, although I confess to liking the pillar one so much I think I need that wheel!
You can never go wrong with candles, Elizabeth, these are so pretty. thanks for sharing with us.
I had never thought of stamping tea lights...just a note about your buttons, if they just click on the click here it just takes them to the photo only of the button but I liked how you did add the names with links below...
I love, love, love both of them. I really like the Marina Mist.

I love the candle in Marina Mist. I have never tried to stamp a candle. Will have to give it a whirl. Your tealights are cute and fun looking. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous. I am so timid in this area, I need to try this sometime and you have given me the inspiration to spread my wings.
Cute, cute, cute Elizabeth! Love this idea! Thanks for sharing!
I have seen stamped candles before but your pillar one is just gorgeous! And I love the tealights in the box too. What great gifts!
Love your candle ideas - what great gift ideas! TFS
Really pretty ideas...very well done, Elizabeth!
Luv your tealight candle set but want to know how you stamped it without the wick getting in the way ............ or am i just being blonde. Lol
one can never have too many candles and if you can have wonderful decorated candles all the better! Good job!
omg! that very vintage wheel looks so good on that pillar! I've got some of those and I know how to use my wheel.
Beautifully done! I especially liked the larger candle stamped in Marina Mist.
My fave is that lovely pillar candle--the Marina Mist ribbon finishes it off so nicely. . . .
Very pretty. I love doing candles. TFS!

Elizabeth, I love both projects. Marina Mist is also one of my favorite colors. Where did you find the template for the tealight box? These are adorable!
