A Little Gift Card Holder
This little galvanized tin got a good sprucing up with the Cosmo Cricket Early Bird Line! It was so easy to make! I wrapped the tin with black cardstock and then red polka dots. Then I added chipboard flowers, layering extra blossoms above and below the main stem for a little extra depth. I also added some very small pen marks to add a little extra detail. Then I tied this pretty ribbon around the bottom, and added some ribbon scraps to the handle as well, and some letters.
It opens like so and holds a little note, a gift card or some small photos depending on what you want to put inside. It was a great little end of school year teacher appreciation gift for us. Cute containers with a little plastic inside are always well received!
Where does the cute tin come from?

Very, very cute, Leah
I love that greenish scalloped ribbon, too. Looks so cute with the Early Bird.

Ha, I see others want to know where you found that adorable little tin too. I love the oval shape of it. Please tell me it is something we can go buy, and better yet, it’s really reasonably priced.
