    Another thought…recycle old candles and ultra fine glitter added to the spoon when melting the wax can be fun and look great.

      True, but those seals would be fragile. The wax beads are more durable, they don't crumble

    Now that all my Christmas cards are done supplies put away I will start playing with the wax still waiting for a few things to arrive but have enough to try it. Cards are beautiful as usual can you make the little dots ahead and store them.

    I love everything about this card design Yana. It has a whimsical vibe. Very clever making the matching wax dots. The squiggles are a very fun addition. I have been having fun making tags with my mini floral die cuts to give friends and fam inside my Christmas cards. It's very relaxing. Looks like you had fun too. I think of you often and I'm always thrilled to find a new creation you are sharing. Thanks for being so generous with your time and talent. Sending love...Cath🌷🌷

    I love the white card the best too. Never thought of making wax seal dots for embellishments. Great way to use up the little bit of wax left in the spoon and keep them for matching embellishments as you did. Thanks for saying that you use Bearly Art Glue to adhere the dots to your card.

    This wax seal idea is extremely cool but I’m wondering if the wax seal will break in half or maybe even crumble when they go through the automated postage canceling machines at the post office……I had to not only pay more at Christmas for my very dimensioned cards but the postal worker added a “NON MACHINABLE” stamp to all my envelopes so they wouldn’t be damaged. None of my cards weighed over an ounce but were too dimensional for the machines. Anyone have any experience with these seals holding up in the mail?? 😎

    • @Yana.Smakula
      @Yana.Smakula  Рік тому

      Seals will not break as the wax they are made of is flexible. It doesn't crumble. It isn't the same as the wax used in candles. As for thickness, I would think if use use 3 beads to make the seal, it would stay relatively flat
