Thank you for the compliments! I just stamped the image with black stazon on tissue paper, then colored with pearl ex powders and future floor wax (in my aquapainter). Trim the tissue paper as close to the image as possible, place it where you want it on the candle, take a piece of wax paper and wrap it around the candle creating a "handle", then heat with the heat gun. You will see the tissue paper melt into the candle. Hope this helps! ;)

Thanks Christi for the great directions! I can't wait to try this technique. Two of my favorite things- stamping and candles, it's great to find a way to combine the two! Would make a nice gift also.
