This is such an easy little project and so quick – you can easily make a batch of these to hang on test tubes making the perfect hand out gifts for school classes for holidays such as Halloween, Christmas, Easter…you can adapt this collar for any occasion and supplies you have to hand and it is a great way to use up your cardstock scraps…
I am loving using Test Tubes and I came across these – they are PLASTIC, have screwtops and flat bottoms making them perfect for filling with treats for school children – they are kid-perfect!
NEED TEST TUBES? I have both Tall and Small Tubes available in my store – please see the end of this tutorial for more details…
Simply cut a piece of cardstock to be 3 3/4″ x 1 1/4″ – you can stamp a background onto it, texture it using an Embossing Folder or add some Designer Series Papers to decorate it…on my dracula tag I used the brand new SPIDER WEB Embossing Folder that you can find on pg 6 of the Holiday Mini Catalog and for the witch one I used my Perfect Polka Dots folder and trimmed the bottom edge using the Scallop Trim Punch for a girly look…
Score 1″ down from the top edge, use a Corner Rounding Punch to round the top corners and then use a 3/4″ Circle Punch to create a hole just above your score line…
Slide over your test tube and use a Dimensional to stick the bottom edge onto the test tube to hold it securely in place – and there you have one very cute treat!
I used stamps from the stamp set FANG-TASTIC that you can find on pg 10 of the Holiday Mini and the images in it are so cute and just perfect to create treats for little ones…
NEED TEST TUBES? I have two sizes available in my store – Tall and Small – I used the Tall size for this project and they are perfect for kids since they are made of plastic for safety, have screwtop lids to keep the contents secure and flat bottoms so no need to make a rack to hold em!
