The halo of light around the candle flame is actually coloured onto the background cardstock, and the image itself has been coloured and fussy cut, then layered over the top. I also applied a little Wink of Stella to the light for an added sparkle. The sentiment, from the Three Kings clear stamp set, has been heat embossed in gold to coordinate with the border.

Love the blending on your leaves against the black background - they just glow, almost as much as the candle light.
This is beautiful.
L is for LOVE!!!
LOVE the candle glow against the black background and as a self-confessed Wink of Stella addict, I can "see" the sparkle!
... I had to look twice, I didn't realise the image was fussy cut, it sure makes for a lovely card Beccy!
Thank You for sharing this technique :)
The black and gold together give me such a thrill! I love that combination. The greenery just jumps off the card. The sparkle and shine really make the candle glow. Just gorgeous!
I love the glow, beautiful card Beccy!
Gorgeous card! I love the sparkle on the dark background, and the beautiful coloring on the candle, bells and holly! Lovely!
Hi Beccy, another beautiful card with such a lovely and sparkly glow, love the dramatic effect against the black card and the gold highlights. Have a wonderful week... Megan
L is for Lovely and this is just Lovely and how clever to add on top of the light i must rember this and love the black background.
Love your coloring, but also Love your fussy cutting. The halo of Light Looks so real and that sentiment is a perfect match! Love it all!

This is definitely a 'perfect' light. Wonderful technique colouring on the black back ground!
Lovely. You make is sounds so easy - "The halo of light around the candle flame is actually coloured onto the background cardstock". You make me feel like I could do it too!
