"Don't Forget" Altered Tin

I got some new Tim Holtz paper doll cutouts, and thought it would be fun to decorate an Altoids tin. These sisters were just perfect for the front of the tin, and I gave them a little dog, because he's just too cute.

I used a red colored pencil to outline the figures, and after inking the edges, dotted the border with white paint.

A little bit of lace and a vintage button around the sides, and I have a tin to hold things I don't want to forget. A key? Some tiny treasures? A lucky penny? Who knows; I'll think of something!
