The Twelfth Fright Before Halloween 2014 - Halloween Toilet Paper TubeGift Card Holder

This project is not for the faint of heart.  Oh, I'm just kidding, but really I've heard a few say that it creeps them out a bit to use a TOILET PAPER TUBE for a craft project especially a gift card holder. So--if you don't want to use a toilet paper tube, you can cut up a paper towel tube OR you can make the base out of cardstock.

For this project, you need a toilet paper tube that you've flattened (or some other base of the SAME size).   You will also need cardstock in Halloween colors of your choice, patterned Halloween papers, twine, Halloween stickers, ephemera, embellishments and Black Soot Distress Stain or Paint.

These little gift card holders are so easy to make and are a quick way to have a unique, adorable holder for gift cards or a bit of cash for your favorite trick-or-treater.

Tomorrow is the last and Thirteenth Fright Before Halloween.  It's a bit more "involved" as far as creation time.  You may want to start on it or wait until after Halloween.  It is PERFECT for your 2014 Halloween photos.  You will need some orange Celebration paper bags and smaller black Celebration paper bags.  These can be bought at Michaels.  You will also need chipboard (medium weight), cardstock and patterned Halloween papers and a fun embellishment collection.  Be sure to check back tomorrow for The Thirteenth Fright Before Halloween!

Happy crafting,
