The seams overlap a little. I used ModgePodge/double side tape to adhere the paper. If you use modge podge you need another layer of the modge podge to seal it. For the lid, I used my Cricut to cut a perfect 3" circle. If I had the option (but I don't), 3 1/4" might be a little better but the perfect circle is wonderful! It looks like you can make 3 cans with two sheets of paper if you have an allover pattern. UK Scrappers Scrap Sites: Here's my list of links for UK scrappers and crafters: (These are from Queenie) http://www.southfield-stationers.co.uk Lovely papers and bits and bobs but beware the very high postal charges. http://www.hobbycraft.co.uk No ability to order online but stores nationwide so there should be one near you, carries over 30,000 items. http://www.liz-craft.co.uk/ Carries 3D decopage kits for Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Co and also Pooh Bear characters and storybook moments from the Pooh books. http://www.letsgetscrapping.co.uk Has fantastic Disney stuff including theme park stickers, also beautiful books. http://www.poppypapercuts.co.uk Great scrapping bits and pieces including mini picture frames in film strip style, great for MGM pages! http://www.craftdepot.co.uk/ Great selection of stickers. http://www.craftcreations.co.uk/ Things for all types of crafts imaginable at reasonable prices. http://www.craft-box.com Rather long winded navigation, not the best site but good if you're into stamping and glitter products http://www.fredaldous.co.uk Good prices but almost no pictures so buying online is a nightmare. It's probably better to go to the shop in Manchester city centre. http://www.creativecrafts.co.uk Not a great deal of scrapping stuff but good for other crafts. http://www.artsandcreations.co.uk Big directory of smaller crafting sites. http://www.creativememories.co.uk Consultant based service, go on the website to find your nearest consultant. http://www.hobbicraft.co.uk Local store in Leeds, great selection of Anita's products. Will add more as we have them shared!!! FAQS (by LisaTX) ((some links may be gone, sites are older)) Here are some threads with some good scrapbook info that I've gathered together. I'm sure I've missed lots of great ones so feel free to add to this thread. Adheshives Circle and oval cutters Getting started in scrapbooking Making an autograph book Photocopying a scrapbook Poems What to do on your trip to prepare for your scrapbook How do I use fonts from my computer?

Pretty well. I didn't trim the paper close enough in some places and so the filing didn't work as well in some spots. But honestly, I didn't want perfect edges, I wanted it too look distressed, so I am really pleased with it. I inked the edges and they are cute. I made parenthesis {} with a monogram in between.

Thanks for all the great tips. I am new to scrapbooking and am having trouble feeling confident enough to make final decisions. I have spent hundreds of dollars and only just started really doing the work.
Thanks for your help. I'm ready!

I'm wondering if maybe there could be a link of techniques to use w/ the cricut?...
Maybe pages that have cricut cutouts on them? ... just a thought what do you think?
