I needed a cute way to present gift cards for Christmas. Inside lid, inside bottom and bottom are trimed with the same patterened paper. Ribbon wraps around the sides for extra decoration.

Adorable! Are these actual altoid tins? And if so...did you have any problems getting the paper to adhere with the raised lids where the "altoids" title is? I have a tin but haven't tried doing anything with it yet.

I have to admit, these are not the "Altoid" brand tins, I purchased these tins on-line (www.myminttins.com). I did try to use the real thing (Altoid brand)and found it to be too difficult - plus I don't really care for Altoids. I had collected about a dozen "Altoid" tins and spray painted them only to find that the paint scratched off - this website turned out to be a cheaper and much easier option. Please let me know if you have any questions. Good Luck! :p
