you will need some beeswax and a means of heating it - if you don't have a melt pot an oil burner with a nightlight will work perfectly ok. I keep a pan for my melt pot especially for beeswax. I also use a brush kept again just for beeswax
A photo and some cardstock
Paint the beeswax on - gradually bulding up the layers until you can hardly see the photo
I scraped the wax away from the faces then soften the wax with my heat gun and stamped all around with swirl image.
Gorgeous smell in my craft room - I'll probably use this piece on the front of one of my books

Wow, this is so cool; thanks for sharing !
Add me to those of us that have had our beeswax for a time and still wrapped in its original paper. This takes away my 'Ummmm not too sure I can go there." Thanks so much.
