Bottle Cap Help Needed
 
I have seen a few cool cards that have decorated bottle caps on them. Could a kind soul please explain how to do this technique? Do you stamp on paper, attach it to the top of the cap, and put a protective sealant on top? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

To do this you need a bottlecap (new or used) and you stamp an image, and cut it to fit in the bottlecap (the AlphaAccenst jr. circles fit right in)

Place the image in a bottlecap, and cover with clear embossing powder-be generous with it. Place it in an oven at 325 degrees for 5-8 minutes-you will see the ep become clear as it heats. Once it is melted (and you can see the image in it easily) take it out and let it dry/cool. The ep acts as a sealer and keeps the paper image inside.

Thanks for the information! I'm excited about trying this. Now to find some bottle caps!
