You may need some Un-du Sticker, Tape and Label Remover to remove any stickiness on the outside of the can like I did.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Step 2:<\/h3>\n<p>Apply a layer of Pearlescent beige Brilliance ink to the top side of the embossing folder you are using. Place a sheet of white cardstock big enough to wrap around your tin and wide enough in the embossing folder and send it through your Cuttlebug machine to emboss the cardstock. The ink will transfer onto your cardstock. <em><strong>TIP:<\/strong> Because the ink pad has a shimmer to it, this same shiner transferred onto the paper and caused a beautiful effect that can be left as is. I took it a step further and inked across the raised white areas using a brown dye ink pad and applicator tool. This highlighted the embossed areas but also made the shimmer more visible.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Step 3:<\/h3>\n<p>Add some eyelets to the cardstock where the edges will meet in the front to form a beautiful textured element. You could even thread some ribbon through the eyelets. Finish off the top of your tin with a ribbon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a rel=\"media\" ref=\"magnificPopup\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Anna-Griffin-Handmade-Flower-Vase-Embossed-Detail.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Anna-Griffin-Handmade-Flower-Vase-Embossed-Detail.jpg\" alt=\"Anna Griffin Handmade Flower Vase Embossed Detail\" class=\"gallery_full\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alternatively use the container as a pencil holder on your desk \u2013 creative and beautiful!

I started off my career in retail working in a paper shop importing handmade speciality papers from japan, Canada, India and America. We also imported a range of rubber stamps (PSX), along with Ranger Products, and Tsukineko to mention a few. This was all back in 2000. I moved to the wholesale part of the business and got involved in window dressing and opening a second flagship store for the company while the owners were overseas. I have travelled extensively to America visiting CHA and Frankfurt Germany to their biggest paper trade show \u201cPaperworld\u201d where I gained valuable knowledge regarding the industry. After a whirlwind love affair with the business I headed off into the sunset to fulfil my second dream by working in publishing. I started off as Technical Editor on a scrapbooking magazine and worked on several other craft publications in the company as well. But this was not enough \u2013 after a long journey I started my own scrapbooking magazine, which transformed into writing a real book book as opposed to a magazine book, and the rest is history. I am currently a best-selling author in the craft industry with my book \u201cScrap-Boek\u201d being the fourth best seller in South Africa and currently in second print. I am a freelance artist doing work for various companies such as Caxton Magazines that includes Rooi Rose and Bona Magazine to mention a few. I travel regularly to various shows teaching and presenting lectures on scrapbooking, card-making and creativity. I have been published several times in American publications such as Taken Ten Magazine, Catch Up Issue \u2013 both Somerset Publications. I was also asked to be a guest artist by Taken Ten Magazine for one of their issues in which an entire article was dedicated to my work. In December 2011, I made my television debut by presenting Christmas Crafts on 3 Talk with Noeleen. After a bit of a sabbatical with my on-line classroom website Scrapcouture, we are busy revamping it with a fresh new approach to bringing creativity and new techniques to people all over the world. Other than that I spend lots of time scrapbooking and making cards and teaching classes weekly in Gauteng as well as throughout South Africa. I am passionate about what I do and I have had many amazing experiences and met so many famous people throughout my creative journey. I am truly blessed with a gift from God!\",\"sameAs\":[\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/jowilna.nolte\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/author\/jowilna\/\"}]}<\/script>\n<!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Handmade Flower Vase From Tin","description":"A handmade flower vase would be bland unless you add some Anna Griffin magic into the mix.

I have travelled extensively to America visiting CHA and Frankfurt Germany to their biggest paper trade show \u201cPaperworld\u201d where I gained valuable knowledge regarding the industry. After a whirlwind love affair with the business I headed off into the sunset to fulfil my second dream by working in publishing. I started off as Technical Editor on a scrapbooking magazine and worked on several other craft publications in the company as well. But this was not enough \u2013 after a long journey I started my own scrapbooking magazine, which transformed into writing a real book book as opposed to a magazine book, and the rest is history. I am currently a best-selling author in the craft industry with my book \u201cScrap-Boek\u201d being the fourth best seller in South Africa and currently in second print. I am a freelance artist doing work for various companies such as Caxton Magazines that includes Rooi Rose and Bona Magazine to mention a few. I travel regularly to various shows teaching and presenting lectures on scrapbooking, card-making and creativity. I have been published several times in American publications such as Taken Ten Magazine, Catch Up Issue \u2013 both Somerset Publications. I was also asked to be a guest artist by Taken Ten Magazine for one of their issues in which an entire article was dedicated to my work. In December 2011, I made my television debut by presenting Christmas Crafts on 3 Talk with Noeleen. After a bit of a sabbatical with my on-line classroom website Scrapcouture, we are busy revamping it with a fresh new approach to bringing creativity and new techniques to people all over the world. Other than that I spend lots of time scrapbooking and making cards and teaching classes weekly in Gauteng as well as throughout South Africa. I am passionate about what I do and I have had many amazing experiences and met so many famous people throughout my creative journey. I am truly blessed with a gift from God!","sameAs":["http:\/\/facebook.com\/jowilna.nolte"],"url":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/author\/jowilna\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6408","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/237"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6408"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6408\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10395,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6408\/revisions\/10395"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6409"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6408"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
