Fun In The Sun Memory Tin

Hi crafty friends! Today I bring you an place you can add your fun photos that you have taken this summer and have them in this colorful tin.

I have a variety of plain tins that I've acquired and thought I'd use it. I also decided to use some fun, summer themed, colorful paper from Prima Marketing St. Tropez Collection . I first used some of the Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks onto the entire surface of the tin. I then just selected my papers and cut them to fit leaving a 1/8 inch from the edge.

Once cut I used my We R Memory Keepers Crop-A-Dile- Corner Chomper on the papers then I used some of the Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo which is a favorite, around the edges of my design paper. I then cut out some 4x4 ivory cardstock to make my photo mats. I added them together with some dark blue ribbon. All together there 4 mats and I added some design paper on both ends for a total of 8 photo mats.

Once done with adding a place for photo mats I added a piece of cotton lace on the lid as a pocket for some tags from the paper collection. Lastly I added some embellishments on the lid.

For this entire project I used Helmar 450 Quick Dry Glue

I hope that you enjoyed my project post today! If you have yet to take a look at the rest of the projects on this blog , please hurry on over and show some love! Till next time friends!! ~Hugs, Jeanne
