I'm looking for the process to flatten bottle caps. Any help?

Put them in a sizzix or sidekick and they will flatten really easily and quickly

I use a rubber mallet and bang them on a concrete floor

I have never used them on cards, but have used them in my scrapbooks!

I mostly make pins with them now-but I have just a few in my gallery
camsmom's Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
scroll down to the bottom of page 7 and there are a few from when i first joined the site!
if you type in "bottlecap" in the search area of the gallery you will find some as well. ;)

I put mine in my Sizzix. You get a perfectly flat bottlecap.

I am going to try this, my card club has a "recycled" theme coming up and this would work great...

Can you really put them in a sidekick? I don't have the larger sizzix but I do have a sidekick. It seems kind of tiny to be able to handle a bottle cap. Has anyone actually used the sidekick to flatten them? (I don't have any bottlecaps so I can't try it myself) I'd love to know if you can do it!
