Well... I need to confess; these are older pieces. But they are favorites of mine. I am working on some designs of Altoid tins with the New Holiday Mini Papers... I will post them when I am finished. There is no template needed really. It's just a matter of measuring the inside of your tin, and then multiplying that by the number of panels. When you need to attach to lengths on panels just affix one panel to the next... back to back. I use 12X12 paper for the inserts, and a Whisper White base (a thinner paper) makes the folding and corner rounding easier.
