I am sharing another treat idea I created using the Ghoulish Googlies Bundle for the Scrapbook Expo. Before I get into the details let me ask you…… if you haven't purchased our Silicone Craft Mat (# 127853) found in the Holiday Catalog on page 31… "What are you waiting for???" This item is a must have for every crafter out there.. Ok, now that I got that off my chest, back to the project at hand.
I started out creating the treat tube out of your everyday toilet paper tube- start
saving those babies now- once you make one you will be addicted! I decorated it with our Howlstooth & Scaringbone Designer Series paper ( # 126906), attaching it using Sticky Strip. I added bling by applying Champaign Glass Glitter # 120997 where the 2 different DSP patterns met.
It was still a little plain so I stepped it up a notch with our Crumb Cake 3 1/2" Scalloped Tulle Ribbon # 127840. Oh my gosh…. tell me, just who doesn't love this stuff?? It is to die for! I cut a 8" piece, folded it in 1/2, and ran a running stich using our Bakers Twine, gathered it up, tied a knot then a bow and, walla! Such a fun, sofisticated touch to a toilet paper tube!
I cut a 1 1/4" strip of the Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP, scored it every 1/2" using our Simply Scored Scoring Tool, secured the ends with Sticky Strip and made the lollie. I put a blob of hot glue on the Silicone Craft Mat (# 127853), pressed down the lollie so the center was in the hot glue and held it until it cooled enough to let go. Once it cooled completely I just peeled the hot glue off the Silicone Craft mat. Yep. It was just THAT easy peasy!! I told you this is a must have for all crafters!! I decorated it by stamping the witch image onto Very Vanilla Cardstock then punching it out using our 1 3/4" Circle Punch. A little coloring and add the googly eyes, some Champaign Glass Glitter for the edges of the lollie. Fill one of our 4×6 cello bags with some treats to tuck inside~who wouldn't love getting this Halloween treat?
I can't wait! I want to buy it all now!!
I made the other 2 larger lollies to show how you could also use the toilet paper treat holder and larger lollies as table decorations for your Halloween party.
Oh, I just got another idea! Why not attach a few fun lollies to one of those headbands with antenae??
Oh, the possibilities are endless…..
