I recently went to a holiday gift exchange with other Stampin' Up! demonstrators. We were to make an inexpensive homemade gift to share. Stamping for other demonstrators is a little intimidating, but I am not sure why. Stampers are such a nice group of people. Even if the idea isn't new, it's a good reminder of a favorite technique/project and it will be done with different colors/stamps. So as I thought about what I could make, I remembered that
Febreze Flameless Luminary that I have had in my closet since my friend,
Mary Ellen, first made them and I had to try one.
I just took the shade that came with it off to measure for my pattern and started to work with a piece of vellum. It was so much fun to make, and now I am ready to make more!
The shade measures 4 inches high. I used two pieces of vellum 6 1/2 x 4. I folded a 1/2 inch tab on one edge and adhered with Snail on opposite corners. Because I didn't like the seam showing, I added two 3 x 4 pieces of cardstock. It also added stability.
Had to try it out in the dark:
And I had to gift wrap it:
