About That Tin…
Linda B. asked a question about this tin I posted earlier which I actually meant to address in my post. I was in way too much of a hurry when I wrote that! My non-stamping life was waiting for me to finish. She asked how I adhered the paper to the sides and top. Good question, Linda! When I do a tin like this I always run Sticky Strip (red liner tape) around the sides and put either paper or ribbon over that. The top is adhered to the tin with Alene’s Tacky glue. Same with the lace bow. This glue allows a little wiggle room before it sets, dries clear and defies you to try and pull it apart once it’s set. The paper roses, by the way, are self-adhesive. Thanks for asking, Linda! If anyone ever has a question, please feel free to contact me!

Wow! Thanks for the thorough answer! And I might actually make one of these tins sometime. :o) Linda
