Decorated Tins

Today I'm putting photos of some of the Provo Craft tins I've decorated in one spot. I'm still searching for pictures of 3 others I've made, I hope I took photos! These are so addicting to make and they are easy. I use Making Memories paint on the top, various ribbons on the handles. I pick papers I like and adhere them with Modge Podge. I also go over the outside with the glue to help give it a protective covering. I use a hot glue gun for the fabric flowers and some of the ribbon.


This first tin I made for a swap on the Cricut MB. I filled it with scrapping goodies that were good for spring and items related to things the recipient scrapped. I also put her favorite Bible verse on it for personalization. Unfortunately, she is no longer on the Cricut MB and we have lost touch. But I still had fun making it for her.


This tin was part of another swap on the Cricut MB for the holidays. It's one of the smaller tins and was only a portion of the items in the swap.


This tin is my favorite that I've made. I think I used Base Camp for the tags and Alphalicious for the letters. The Flowers might be from George. I didn't write down what cartridges I used, I won't make that mistake again! This tin was a Christmas gift for my niece. I used her favorite colors, purple and pink. She had recently turned 11 and was starting to get into beauty items. I filled it full of items for nail care. She really liked it, even showing it off to her dad.

Card for Grandpa


This is a card I made for my Grandpa for Father's Day. I'm still learning with cards, for some reason that small size throws me off and most of my cards just don't impress me. This one I didn't think about too much, I just put it together.

I used brads to hold 5 inch circles together, used 2 patterned papers on the base, ribbon and a monogram G from Base Camp (cricut) at 3 inches (3 letters for depth), shadowed, inked and used pop dots for dimension. The tag I stamped and inked. I really like how it looks. Grandpa has poor vision so I wanted to be sure he could see it easily, I think this did the trick.
