Birthday card with fabric collage background and stitched candles


 The white background for this candle card is one trimmed from the large fabric collage I made a while back.  I found some scrappy pink pieces in my stash and used them as the candles and added several as flags on the right hand side.  I stiched all the way around the scraps, added double layer flames in yellow and stitched those down then added wicks in dark brown thread.  I stitched the background to coordinating scrapbook paper capturing the fabric flags at the same time.  I adhered this large layer to a large white card which I created to fit in a large envelope from my stash.  I really like the look of these fabric candles.
