As a frame for the tin, I used the Altoids Fairy Tale Inserts. This is a set of three, each with a two-part decorative label holder. Here are the other two in the set:
For a textured surface, I tapped an embossing ink pad on the frame then sprinted embossing powder all over it (over a separate piece of paper so I could pour the excess back into the jar).
The heat gun worked it's magic and the embossing powder melted into a wonderful black and white textured surface.
I dabbed black paint onto the label frame surface, then used a brown brush pen to even out the color on the label's edges.
Attach the insert with a line of glue around the tin.
I used both parts of the label, and helped the glue set up with clothes pins. Since the embossed surface is textured, I glued the label to the tin using strong E-6000.
I hope I haven't shocked you too much... I do like to raise eyebrows every once in a while!
