Inspired Stamps Bottle Cap Magnets

Today I am going to show you how to make some bottle cap magnets that I am working on as gifts.

The supplies you need are paper, bottle caps, Glossy Accents, 1 inch circle punch and 1 inch stamps.
Step 1- stamp your image on some cute paper. Punch the stamped image out with your circle punch. I used Inspired Stamps 1 inch circle sentiments.

Step 2- Add adhesive to the entire back of the circle. I use the sticker maker to adhere my circles. 

***These 1 inch snowmen also go perfectly inside the bottle cap if you want to make these for Christmas. 

Step 3- Add Glossy Accents inside the entire bottle cap. Add in any embellishments you want. I put heart buttons in some of my caps. 

                                      

Step 4- Lay the bottle caps flat and leave alone for at least an hour. VERY IMPORTANT do not move them around while they are drying. 

Step 5- Add magnets to the back. I hot glue mine on the back. 

Step 6 -Decorate however you like. 

Here is a video that I made with instructions on how to make these step by step. My video camera is not making clear videos for some reason. I can not figure out why but you can get the steps anyways.
Don't forget to go to Inspired Stamps and check out all the other wonderful tutorials.

Gate Fold Cards

I made a bright gate fold card for my first time and it did not come out perfectly. So I decorated it and am going to keep it for myself. This is what happens when I start crafting after 11pm. It came out cute but doesn't fold quite right.




My second one however came out just right. I decorated it with pictures of my sister and I and gave it to her for her birthday (a day late). I like how it came out. I decorated it simply with lots of swirls cut with my Cricut. If you would like details on how to make it go to this blog for instructions.

I really enjoyed making this card and it is actually pretty easy to make. I think the hardest part was finding the pictures.

DAD Wordbook

I made this one very simple. It being for my dad I did not do a lot of embellishments. I used "manly" colors from ki memories family time set (look at me I know the brand of my paper) that I bought on clearance specifically for this project. I designed it in Design Studio. If you want the cut file I will email it too you. I used Plantin SchoolBook.





I ended up using this wordbook as my birthday card for my dad so I made the card inside on the back of the book.

Using UTEE

I bought UTEE-Ultra Thick Embossing Powder- I had seen the acronym before but never really knew what it meant until I bought a book on chipboard ideas. I am now in love with the stuff. I have made several flowers and a tag with it now. I made a video of the first time I tried it and I have to say I loved how it came out. I used it on my DAD wordbook. Which of course I did not finish yesterday...lol. Almost done :)



This is what I ended up using them for after I made them.

My first video!!! YAY

I have been playing with trying to make videos for a few weeks and have finally figured it out! YAY! So here was my trial one. Just something I thought to do for a word book I am making. I will post the word book when I am all done.



I will be done hopefully today with the word book. That's the goal anyway.
