This is a wristy made out of an altoid type tin. The label started out as white cardstock but I used two of MelMel's "What's in Your Tin" sets and the little flower from baroque motifs to make the label in river rock and blue bayou. The river rock around the outer edge of the lid is a strip of cardstock, and the ribbon is blue bayou double-stitched. I used my CAD to punch a hole in the side for the wrist strap that I will use to hang this on the wall with all the little pieces for whatever my current project is so that I don't lose them (ask me how many projects have had to be put on hold so I could find ANOTHER of a brad/flower, etc. after I lost the first one).
