Hello everyone, Riet here.

Today I want to show you this candle.

Even though I am Dutch, I think Halloween is absolutely amazing.

I especially like all homemade Halloween craft .

Halloween appeals to everyone's imagination when it comes to crafts.

But now the candle, bought at the Action, which is a well-known store in the Netherlands.

Especially because it is low budget.

What I used for this candle:

LCD Dancing skeletons.

LCD Crackle background.

Stazon Brown Timber.

Black waterproof ink.

I started by removing the piece of fabric.

First we are going to give the candle a slightly older look.

We dab the candle with a piece of paper towel and some Stazon Timber Brown.

The next step is with a hard coarse sponge and Archival or stazon black.

Not too much otherwise the black will dominate.

With the crackle background stamp we now make a few prints on the candle.

We do this without a stamp block, so free in the hand. Stamp light and airy.

Repeat this until you are satisfied with the result.

Now the candle holder.

It looks a bit plain.

So I put some viva decor terra on it.

It has a nice bloody color and that works well for Halloween.

I stamped the dancing skeletons with black ink and cut them out and glued them on.

Use a thin paper for this.

Decorate further with some spiders and spider web.

This is the front and the back side of the candle.

This is an easy and quick project, and such a fun way to create a Halloween deco piece.

Now it's up to you to make something for the challenge.
