I decorated these pretty square glass votive holders for my Ways To Use It Project today - the challenge was Giving Thanks.
I wrapped a 10x2 panel of this lovely linen vellum cardstock from Papertrey around the votive. You can see the light from the candle shines nicely through it.
I stampd the sentiments and leaf from Peace and Plenty by Waltzingmouse Stamps right on the vellum with Stazon Ink. I colored the leaf with copics, punched it and layered it on brown cardstock.
I wrapped twill around the top and layered the leaf circles over it. Then I just added two gems for a little glitter.
I think these will look SO pretty on a table for Thanksgiving don't you?!
