Repurposed Holiday Gift Tin

I have to say that this repurposed tin creation is not my personnal style at all but, I love how it turned out!
I got the Trim a Tree cartridge last Christmas and still had not used it so, this is my first time using it.  I used printed paper from DCWV Ultimate Stack that had bells all over it.   I used my ATG gun to glue the paper to the metal tin.  Then, I added a solid piece to the front.
The cut is the bell from Trim a Tree at 4 1/2"and the stars have 'Peeled Paint' distressed stickles added. 
Sentiment is Inkadinkadoo, mounted and pop dotted with a little more stickles.  
I covered the lid by tracing the shape and hand cutting it and then topped it with a sheer ribbon bow that I made.  Another good tin saved from the recycle bin!!!
