I hope you had a fabulous weekend and you’re all ready for the holidays. Mallory came home Friday for her break and Kate has been running in and out over the last few days. It’s nice to have both the girls here at the same time. I’m trying to catch up with last minute things so I can spend all my time with them over the next few weeks.
Mallory has found that she needs a gift card holder and I told her I would whip one up for her. Whip one up was an understatement. I took me a little longer than I thought, but it was all my stupid mistakes which caused the problems.
In finally ended up with this altered ATC tin. I’ve checked my suppliers to see who has it, but alas I’ve come up short. I think I purchased a number of these a year or so ago at Archiver’s actually.
I covered the tin in Holly Jolly from My Mind’s Eye and die cut all my embellishments from the same paper. It looked pretty plain to me when I was done, so I added some ribbon to add a little more color.
I’m heading back to the studio to finish up now. Thanks for stopping by today!
Product used for tin:
First I always love to read your blogs. Could you please tell me/us what adhesive you use to adhere the decorative paper to the metal tins? Thanks so much.
What a sweet little decorated tin! It’s an excellent idea for a gift card…love it!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!
Hey Sherry — Another stunner for your Etsey Store ! :)))) The paper looks so well-worn that I thought you had inked directly on the tin. Super-Duper-Cool.
Very cute, Sherry…
We are blessed also to have our daughter home from California for 10 days…. her brother is picking her up @ the airport tonite! Our other daughter is right here in town and we had dinner over there tonite… life is GOOD!
Have a great Christmas, Sherry… and enjoy your time w/your family! XO
