So I ordered these little metal tins from Stampin Up's Clearance Rack awhile ago. I didn't have any plans for them at the time and they've just been sitting in my craft room. So, I decided to make a little set of notecards to put in the tins for a nice hostess gift. I had to make the cards 4x4 in order to fit them in the tin. I kept them pretty simple. I only have 2 in the photo but I actually made 4. There's also a blue and a green version. I used various patterns of DSP in Daffodil Delight, Pretty in Pink, Wild Wasabi and Bashful Blue. The sentiment is from the Level 3 hostess set Occasional Quotes. The little leaf is from the Baby Blossoms set. I added a strip punched with the Scallop Ribbon punch. I finished the notecards off with a little Paper Daisy and a brad. I decorated the tin using the same basic layout. I used a bigger Paper Daisy and a large designer brad from the Sweet Stitches collection. The sentiment for the tin is from the set A Word for You. I think I might make a few more of these. They will make nice little gifts to have on hand. Thanks for stoppping by!

I love this idea! I wondered what on earth to do with those little tins!
Thanks for sharing!
This is so pretty.
Your design is crisp and clean I purchased a boatload of these tins.
Could you tell what size you cut your papers for the front of the tin?
