Card Holders


Got together the other night with some lovely ladies and did a double craft activity.  We started by making these card holder from glass candlesticks.  We took a mixture of matte medium and dye reinkers and colored the glue and then painted it onto the candle to give it a frosted look.  A sparing amount of glue is used and dries quickly.  More can be added if you want to darken the color.  Then we made what I call "Truth cards".  Dylusional sprays covered paper and then were cut and stuck together so that the card is double sided.  We wrote down true statements that would be an encouragement.  A second statement was written on the back.  It was then displayed in the holder with a wine cork that had a slit made in it to hold a paper clip.  This also  becomes a good holder for photos, recipes, postcards, etc.  The ladies did a great job and declared this activity a favorite for them.  Thank you, Pinterest, for the idea for the holder.
