Wax Seal - 3 Color Bee


I've had wax seal stuff for eons. Used to use them for some envelopes and decorative stuff and then just left it in my misc drawers... So recently I resurrected my stuff and had created a 3 color wax seal that was a bit sloppy so decided to try again. This time I warmed my metal seal to soften the wax to scrape off the excess wax on the 1st pouring.
Then I saw a post by Breanna Chupik from The Paper And Ink Boutique about heating her stamp seal also and decided to write about mine...
I just used a candle burner from Spellbinder's that I just bought instead of holding my spoon over a candle like I used to do... much easier. Melted the gold wax, poured and heated the seal and scraped off (most) of the excess. You can see a bit of it mixed into the purple color... I kind of like that. Then heated the purple and poured and scraped the excess, then poured my white. It was a little too small a circle, hence the not quite round shape... I'll get better with practice. Big Grin
