Today I want to show you how to make a Christmas Candles card.
First, lets make a candle. For one candle, you will need three to four red paper stripes 5mm wide and 11" long. Using a quilling tool, roll the stripe.
Glue the edge, so the spiral is about 15mm (5/8") in diameter.
Now, make a candle flame. Take an orange stripe and make a spiral as you made for a candle. Shape it into a bend teardrop, pinching the spiral from one side.
Roll the cut stripe into the tight spiral. Glue the edge.
With your fingers , separate and spread the "needles"
Make as many fir-needle clusters as you need for your project.
Arrange the clusters into a wreath or the pine-branch.Use 3-4 spirals for each candle.

To make the fir-needle clusters, you will need 1/2" wide and 11" long green paper stripes. Make cuts every 2mm on 3/4 of the stripe (see photo).
