Made this can and 3 other's in order to change up the way I give my Nephew's and niece's their Christmas money. They have the money + candy for filler inside. I also did a few for a couple of other family members that have ornaments in them.

Any can from the grocery store with a pull tab will do--EXCEPT the can has to have a flush bottom, not a rounded one. If the can is made to stack on top of another one, it won't work, because the safety can opener won't cut the rounded edge. I've seen here in the gallery that even the dogfood cans have been used. (cleaned out of course.) Have fun, 'cause they're another outlet for using your stamps creatively.

I forgot to mention under accessories I used the coluzzel and the coluzzel blade (similar to an exacto knife) to cut the circles for the top and bottom of the cans. Tracing the can made for a little bit bigger circle than the inside edge of the can, and I couldn't trim it freehand w/o disfiguring the circle.
