Some are die cut and some are stenciled, but they all shimmer in the light. There is also a faint gold balloon and star background on top. This is a good all around card that can go to just about anyone..guys, girls or kids. Easy to make a few ahead of time and not have to worry about it being too girly or too masculine. Also easy to customize by changing the colors.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41786 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1064\" height=\"778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361-400x292.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361-980x717.jpg 980w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361-175x128.jpg 175w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361-768x562.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-flat-IMG7361-164x120.jpg 164w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1064px) 100vw, 1064px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">A big congrats to Amy, the newest Featured Stamper FS940!

Then I went over them w\/ Brilliance pearlescent sky blue &amp; mediterranean blue to give them some shimmer. The flame stencil was done w\/ yellow &amp; a little red then I went over it w\/ galaxy gold &amp; rocket red for shimmer. The long panel on top was stamped w\/ galaxy gold. I like how it&#8217;s visible, but not overwhelming. Although there are several different candle dies, I used the same barber pole candle for all three. The solid backs were cut out of 3 colors &amp; the striped toppers were cut out of metallic colors as were the flames. So the whole card has a nice shimmer but it&#8217;s not glaringly metallic.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41783\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1048\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357.jpg 1048w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357-400x244.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357-980x598.jpg 980w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357-175x107.jpg 175w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357-768x469.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Birthday-Candles-xcu-IMG7357-197x120.jpg 197w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1048px) 100vw, 1048px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThanks <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">so much for stopping by! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12715\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Julie2-sig.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"134\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Supplies: \u00a0(click the names below the pictures to take you to the products)<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 177px;\" border=\"0\" width=\"724\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody id=\"collapseobj_photoinfo\">\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 100%;
