Choose a paper to cover you tin.... i used scrapbook paper (big pad, cant remmeber the name of it again! oops!)
Measure the height of your tin....
Cut paper to size (12 x 12 paper is a good fit, although A4 landscape also fits!)
i used double sided tape to stick the paper to the tin...
i chose to use 2 co-ordinating papers, so attached the second one to the tin, but then you get an 'ugly' line!
I used border punch to cut a strip to run around the middle...
Using double sided tape (again!) i attached it around the middle of the tin...
still got some ugly lines tho!!!
Using some co-ordinating Pink border peel offs (or some ribbon... whatever you want to use, i attached around the top and bottom where the paper meets the top (you sometimes get a gap!) and the a strip around the middle to hide where the scalloped bit meets the paper...
I then attached images i stamped with Stampin Up stamp 'Playful Petals' (my fav at the minute!)
Et... Voila! the finished tin! hubby still thinks im really sad and need to get out more! lol
