Project by Mary O’Neil.
Materials
old cookie or candy tins
plain paper for stamping
Hot Potatoes alphabet stamps
Hot Potatoes rubber stamps
adhesive
1/4" decorative ribbon
clear Contact paper
Red Line double-stick tape
Steps:
1. Use the top of the tin to measure a circle on the paper (figure A).
2. Add about 1/2 inch to the overall measure and cut out (figure B).
3. Stamp with fun images and use the alphabet to stamp clever messages (figure C).
4. Lay this down and cover with Contact paper (figure D) and cut out.
5. Apply glue to the top of the tin lid and adhere the stamped paper to the top (figure E). Trim and clip the edges, folding down. Run a bead of glue and stick down the sides (figure F).
6. Attach 1/4-inch double-stick tape to the decorative ribbon and run this around the edge of the tin top to finish off (figure G).
7. Cut strips of paper to cover the sides of the tin (figure H).
8. Stamp and cover with the Contact paper. These can be just like the top or made to co-ordinate.
9. Glue to tin.
10. Fill with cookies or other goodies.
