Covering Tin Lids with Photographic Collage Paper

 Recently, I bought some small tins at Dollar Tree store.  No particular project in mind but just in case....I always like to have craft stuff on hand!  



I decided to try gluing Tim Holtz new Photographic Collage Paper to the lids.  That collage paper with all the vintage photos is my favorite!  

First, I painted lids with Gesso.  Once it was dry, I used Distress Collage Medium to apply layers of Photographic Collage Paper to each lid.  I used 2 different images on each tin.  The man and boys has an image of buildings and postmark behind image of man and boys.  That scene is very subtle.  The other tin has house image collaged to lid first and then image of women over it.  I roughly fussy cut around the women which makes the house more visible.  I rubbed on some Distress inks to add sky color and age the edges (Vintage Photo and Broken China).


I'm super pleased with how these turned out!  

I'm still pondering how to seal the ink so that it doesn't rub off.  It will need to be a solvent based product so it doesn't react with the ink.  Until then, I'm enjoying them just as they are setting on my craft table to admire!
