Sparkly Fall Decoration

Hello Stamping Friends,
 
Welcome to another Fabulous Friday with the Sisters in Stamping.  Today we are sharing with you Fall/Halloween Decor items.  These are projects made with Stampin' Up! product to use as a decoration in your home.
 
I altered a pillar candle for a sparkly fall decoration.  This candle would look so pretty as a centerpiece on a table. Die cut some extra leaves and spread them on the table around the candle to finish it off. 
 
 
The champagne glass glitter is so pretty in person. It's really hard to capture it on camera.  To get the glitter on the candle, I spread the Tombo multipurpose adhesive all over the bottom half of the candle then I "carefully dumped" the glass glitter all over the glue.  It takes some time to dry so be patient.

 
To finish the candle off  I stamped on 7/8" cotton ribbon with early espresso ink and the woodgrain background stamp. Tie that around the candle in a simple knot.  Then I used the Autumn Accents die to cut some leaves. They are also embossed with the spider web folder to make them look like they have viens.

 
Here's a close up of the side of the candle so you can see the glitter and ribbon better. The cluster of leaves is attached with the tombo multi purpose adhesive.

 
One final look for you.  I can't wait to make another one with a winter theme. Be watching for that.
