Tube Class - updated with article links

[Kristin]

First, I fill the trendy tubes with treats! My selection this time is Skittles!

[Kristin]

Next, I added some double-sided tape to a cream/red striped ribbon and added it to each tube.

[Kristin]

I die cut a few flowers from the Heidi Swapp paper. You can also punch flowers. Assembled them with baker's twine and a button.

[Kristin]

After adhering each flower embellishment to the tubes, I tied ribbon around each tube into a bow.

Here is the finished project!

I would have to use M&M's because I love me some chocolate! I like the pastels Skittles though. This would be cute for easter with pastel M&M's.

Very simple and quick, but nice. Would be great for teacher's gifts.

I am going to have to get some of these tubes. They will be great for stocking stuffers at Christmas. Can never plan to early. LOL. Kristin, these are great tutorials. Bookmarking this for later when I get some.

These are really cute!

I also made a card showing how you can use a trendy tube on a handmade card design.

I adhered the trendy tube using double-sided tape. The confetti can be created wtih small die cuts or punches.

[Kristin]

The graduate can open the trendy tube and dump the confetti to celebrate the ocassion. Washi tape is on each side of the tube. I chose to focus on the graduate's college colors for the card!

I would love ideas for filling up the 'card' tube for a high school grad...something they would really want...???

That card is cute! How do you keep the cap on? Glue?

[Kristin]

Now it's your turn! Show us what YOU can do with Tubes and post them to our Gallery. This is not a Crop Challenge, but a 'Kristin Challenge', lol. I'll be watching the Gallery over the next week or so looking for your Tube projects. And of course, I'll be picking a random Tube Gallery Submission to win some fabulous stuff from our Crop Sponsors.

Next class in 10 minutes!!! This is the class that I created, oh boy . BE THERE!
