This is something that we did for a challenge with our get-together/swarm last week. It is just an empty sealed 10# can with a slot cut in the top for coins and then we decorated them. The cardstock is Bazzill and the ribbon around the can is from making memories. I don't remember the source of the papers. I just picked them up in the store that we were scrapbooking at and really liked the colors. I used the cricut and Walk in my Garden for the flower cuts and I used Opposites Attract for the words. It was a very fun idea and I was able to complete it in the time that we had to do it. I think that I will go and get some sealed cans the next time that I am in charge of kids activities with my family and turn them loose with some paper and scraps that I have and they can all make their own banks.
