Gift canisters...and Winners!!!

Happy Thursday, everyone, and thank you for dropping by to see what's happening in my little world. I just don't know where all of my time goes...If you have an answer, please let me know...lol

Today is my day to post over at the Wild Orchid Crafts blog where we like to show our creations using the gorgeous products found at the Wild Orchid Crafts shop. So I have made a LITTLE gift container to hold some butter mints for a friend. The pictures are a little misleading because the canister is no more than 2.5 inches (6 cm) tall. And I apologize for my photography skills but in real life all of the pinks are the same color but I can't get them to photograph as the same color...sigh...

I used a clear plastic container and covered it with DP from the Maja Sofiero collection. For the side I also used Flat-Back Pearl String, some pre-pleated trim from my stash, Vintage Seam Binding tied into double bows to anchor a couple of heart charms from the Mixed Heart Charm Set. The sentiment is from the Whimsy Stamps Mini Chalkboard Set.

The top panel is cut from the SB Classic and Petite Scalloped Circles. I added two sizes of Open Roses, some tiny 4 mm Rosebuds, a Cameo (which I don't see in the shop today), and a tiny bow made with very narrow satin ribbon.

Here is another canister I made a bit ago which is much larger...about 4 inches (10 cm) tall. I have also used some lovely products from Wild Orchid Crafts shop and the base of the creation is actually a peanut can...smiles...
