"Thank You" Tin
Stamp Artist - Susan LaCroix
Directions: Lightly sand the tin and then wipe it clean.
Using makeup sponges, cover the outside of the tin with Luna
Lights paints in lavender and bright blue. When the paint is
dry, sponge embossing fluid onto the lid and pour on the clear
UTEE embossing powder. Heat it until it melts, then apply another
layer. Do this until you have three layers built up. Ink your
stamp with the violet ink and stamp into the hot UTEE. Once it
has cooled, remove the stamp. Spread glue around the impression
on the lid and add the embellishments to it, circling the stamped
image. Once the lid has dried, you can decorate the inside. Spread
glue around the inside of the tin's bottom and sides. Arrange
the dried flowers in it.
Using your computer, print
out a verse, "Thanks for the "singing lesson", you are my
best friend. A friend is someone who knows the song of
your soul and sings it back to your when you've forgotten the
words., on the vellum paper.
Cut it out to fit the inside of the lid. Run it through a Zyron
machine and adhere it, then add a few rhinestones as decorations.
All done!
