i am sure there is a thread somewhere about stamping on candles - would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

Thanks ever so

The way that I do it is to stamp on tissue paper, wrap the tissue around the candle, wrap the tissue/candle in wax paper, and heat with your heat gun until the tissue melts into the candle. Make sure that the tissue is the same height as the face of the candle, and that the wax paper is bigger than that....

If you have questions, PM me and I will do my best to answer.

I use the tissue paper as well - I use a color similar to that of the candle and rip it as close to the image as I can then heat with the heat gun. I love to use embossed images and you can also color your images with colored pencils - just be careful not to rip the tissue paper.
I love making the candles I did angels, and snowmen for Christmas presents and the people loved them.
