I sure love it when a product gives you lots of WOW factor, and cuts your time creating that WOW in half! Stampendous has these playful kits called Stack Art. Stack Art Kraftboard kits include four sheets of die-cut kraftboard with tag shapes, frames, and embellishments. Four matching, die-cut sheets of double-sided adhesive paper, and four sheets of printed greetings.
They pair nicely with Stack Art Elements kits. What are those you ask?...ONLY THE YUMMIEST COLLECTION of glitters, embossing powder, mics fragments and more!
After you have assembled them, you can use them on cards, layouts, or what ever you can imagine! I decided to use the Stack Art kit to create a candle holder that holds a battery operated tea light candle.
It looks very pretty and sparkly in the dark!
Why not try making your own! Here's what you'll need:
1 Stack Art Kraftboard Royal Heart Kit
1 Stack Art Cling Rubber Stamps Royal Heart Kit
Double Sided Adhesive tape or sheets
Acetate sheet
StazOn black ink
Rhinestones
1 Gold Jewel Border Dazzles™
Here are the instructions:
1. Use WeRMemory Keeper Gift PunchBoard to creat a 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 box from transparency sheet. Using black StazOn ink, stamp box with Stack Art Royal Heart cursive stamp.
2.Fold box, and secure edges with double sided adhesive tape.
3. Cut circles into solid kraftboard shapes. Add matching adhesive shape, and cut out center of adheisive. Burnish with Citrus Orange at the bottom, and Pink Micro Glitter at the top and middle.
4. Add matching adhesive shape to small frame, and burnish with Sea Green Jewel Glitter. Adhere onto pink/orange solid kraftboard aligning holes. Adhere onto transparency box with double sided adhesive tape, and embellish with rhinestones.
5. Use Gold Jewel Border Dazzles™ to hide seams. Add battery operated tea light candle.
Maybe you've never done mixed media, and that's okay. These sets take all the guess work out of it for you! I dare you to go try one of Stampendous's amazing Stack Art sets, and see just what incredible mixed media pieces you can make! Happy Crafting!

Love this project, Amy! It's so super cute. Wouldn't have thought of putting them together to make this kind of project, but it's just brilliant! They would make adorable wedding centerpieces.

Very clever idea! I wouldn't have thought of using all 4 to make a candle holder. I love the idea of all the elements coming in the same kit. Great creation xxx
