Double Test Tubes

You know sometimes I have the hardest time just figuring out the title for the post.  Isn't that strange.  I guess you would say that bloggers would like to have a catchy title to grab ya ~ but this is all your going to get today...  Double Test Tubes. 

Yesterday I posted the test tubes that I made, now here are the double packs of them that I made.

I made these holders out of some light blue linen paper that I've had for a very long time and some dark blue paper.  The DP paper is from a paper pack I bought at Walmart almost 4 years ago.  I stamped the image from Holiday Line up and colored it in with my pencils and gamsol and adhered it to the front of the folder.  I used my scallop circle punch and punched out a scallop with dark blue paper and added a piece of light blue that I punched with my 1 3/8" circle punch.  I took the snowflake from Frosty and stamped it in Brilliant Blue and punched it out with my 1 1/4" circle punch and added it to the top of the dark blue scallop and hung it from the the ribbon that I added to the test tube.  I used my scallop border punch and added a piece of light blue paper that I used my gel pen on to make the dots to the top of the test tube to dress up the cap.




These are really fun to make - and I can't wait to see peoples faces when they see them.  Now I just have to add some candy to them.  Any ideas?  What would be small enough to put in there?  And should I put the same candy in both of them??

That's all I've got for you today.  Let me a comment and let me know what you think should fill them.

Have a super great day!
