I have only done two of the paint cans, but this is what I did...
I cut two sheets of cardstock 7 1/4" x 11".
Stamp the images as desired. It's nice to match the two sides together before stamping so you have the design matching where it overlaps on the can.
Hold the sheets up to the can and make a scissor "nick" at both the top and bottom of where the handle is attached, and then either 1) use a circle punch to cut space for the handle, or 2) free-hand it with your scissors. It won't show much so don't worry too badly about precision.
I used the Scotch double sided tape to attach the two sheets to the can.
For the top of the can, simply trace your lid with a pencil, and then cut inside the lines so it will be small enough. OR, if you are fortunate enough to have a circle cutter, use that instead.
I like to make them have a 3D effect, so since mine had butterflies, I also stamped and cut out butterflies of the same colors, folded them in half, and attached them on top (of the same colored butterfly stamped onto the can) with mini glue dots. I just used one 3D butterfly on the lid and used strips of a "boa" around the top and bottom of the can.
You can see my can in my gallery.
Hope this helps you...or that someone else will post more specific directions.
