031207_tin_top
I decided to do a 3D project today.  This tin is leftover from a set I made for my mother to store all of her spices.  I found them for 75-cents a piece here, and there is no minimum purchase!  I have made purchases from them on more than one occasion and have been really happy with their service!

I thought this tin could be used as packaging for a small birthday gift or something.  The band wrapped around the bottom shows the variety of flowers in the new set.  I love that the flower centers are separate so you can easily integrate two colors if you like.  The lid of the tin features a floral butterfly (there are a total of FIVE patterned butterflies in this set, I’ve shown you only three so far.  Can you 031207_tin_side
guess what the other two will be?!?!).  The larger daisies within the butterfly perfectly coordinate with the 1/4" circle punch.  So it was easy to add the flowers in a second color.  I used the slot punch to create openings for the ribbon (from American Crafts via Hobby Lobby) to go underneath the butterfly image, so it was not covered.  A quick and easy project! Only 3 days until you can purchase your very own set!

    Love the tin! The florals are probably my favorite so far in the set. What could the two others be? You’re doing a great job keeping us tuned in…and I can’t wait to order the new set. 😉

    Oh my goodness, I love the flowers and I love the simple elegance of your work, it looks wonderful in red only. If it had been me, I would have used about four different colors and I would have ruined it, lol.
