Time for another challenge over at
Challenge 39
Lyrics
Give us a song to inspire us :) :) :)
Another candle from me for this challenge but I think it will be the last for a wee while as I seem to have made so many recently. The song I have used for this creation is Spanish Dancer by Patti Scialfa - you can read the lyrics here and the image very fittingly is also called Spanish Dancer.
To begin with I designed the background on Photoshop and added another of Ike's images, a map of spain. The next layer contained the lyrics from the song Spanish Dancer and on the final layer I placed the Spanish Dancer image with the white background removed. The wrapper is now ready for printing and then I can finish the rest of the colouring.
Ingredients:-Lyrics

The image was coloured with Faber Castell Polychromos and then attached to the Ikea 9" candle. If you would like to see how I decorate my candles please have a look at the video :)
