rainbow birthday candle card: creating the sparkling candles
To make the candles, use the direct to paper method with an ink pad to colour 8 strips of cardstock. The colours used on this card are:

After you have created the various strips of coloured cardstock, use the smaller candle die from the Make A Wish die set and cut out 8 candles. To add some sparkle, add embossing ink to the end of the candles and then cover with Halo Embossing glitter before heat setting.

rainbow birthday candle card: assembling the card
To create the flames, heat emboss a scrap of card with gold embossing powder. Next, die-cut 8 flames out of the embossed cardstock using the flame die from the Make a Wish die set. After, foam mount the candles and flames onto a white cardbase.

For the sentiment, heat emboss a sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set onto black card. Foam mount the sentiment onto the front of the card and finish by embellishing with gold sequins.
