Bottle Cap Embellishment Tutorial

August 5, 2015

Hi Everyone!  Lyne here with a bottle cap embellishment tutorial for ScrapMuch!?  I’ll be showing you how to create the cap I used on my Cool Kid layout.   Here’s a close up…

For this you will need some bottle caps, a manual die cut machine, liquid adhesive, a 1 inch circle punch and some epiphany crafts epoxy stickers in size 14.

To get started set your die cut machine up with platform one.

Place your clear cutting pad down, then the bottle cap facing down, and the top clear plate.
Once you run it through the machine you’ll end up with something like this:
I do find that the cap you use does make a difference.  I found some at hobby lobby that were on clearance with a soda design on the back.  They don’t work so well as they tend to flatten too much, but the Spare Parts caps work perfectly. 
Now use your circle punch to punch out the design you are looking to make into an embellishment.
Place some strong liquid glue on the cap and then place your circle punch on top.  Allow to dry for a few seconds.

Lastly, apply your epoxy cap and you’re ready to use
You can also do this, but use the back of the cap instead.
I did this on my Scrappy Friends layout.  This one I had a hard time getting a good photo of, but if you go check out the layout it’s on the right hand side at the top.
I hope you’ve learned something new today, and I’d love to see what you create using this technique.  Until next time…Happy Scrapping!

Cool Kid Layout

May 22, 2015

I’m up today with another sketch reveal for ScrapMuch?.  I really loved this sketch right away, and got right to work…until I was time to embellish.  It took me just as long to embellish as everything else.  Here’s the sketch:

And here is how I interpreted it:
    I promise that the photo really isn’t blurry, but the paper is so very light in color.  The collection is from My Mind’s Eye called Boy Crazy.  I used the 12×12 paper and the 6×6. I also used the accompanying stamps.  The cool kid title is from Heidi Swapp and I colored it with an Avery Elle ink pad and them embossed it with clear powder from Ranger.  The bottle cap inside I made my with my epiphany craft machine…some ink splatters…washi and enamel dots complete the look.  
    Despite having some embellishing trouble I am really happy with how it came out.  I look forward to see your take on the sketch.  Until next time…Keep scrapping!

Scrap Friends Layout

May 8, 2015

     I am so excited to be sharing my first layout for the ScrapMuch? design team.  Laura also has the best sketches, and I’m honored to be part of a team showing them off.  Here is the first sketch I was given to work with:

And here is my take:

     The photos are from the first time I had the pleasure of meeting my scrappy friend Stacia for a painting part she organized…what fun!  I used Simple Stories 24/seven collection and some misc enamel dots.  I created the embellishment cluster in the top right using the epiphany craft machine and a flattened bottle cap…it looks so cool in person.  
     So tell me what you think of my take and I can’t wait to see what you come up with.  Until next time…Keep Scrapping!

December Daily Cover for Southern Girls Challenge

December 18, 2014

     Hi everyone and welcome to my final 2014 reveal for Southern Girls Challenge. Don’t worry…I’ll be back with more great inspiration for them in 2015.  We were asked to inspire you with projects that had a Christmas theme.  I am here today sharing my December Daily cover!
    I started with the layout sketch over at Stuck?Sketches.  Since they do layouts I’m not sure I can enter it into their challenge, but I’ll take inspiration where-ever I can get it and my mojo has been laking lately.  I flipped the sketch on it’s side and went from there.
    Except for the red ribbon, bling and possibly the snowman (can’t remember which pack he was in) all the products are part of the Simple stories DIY collection.  I can’t get enough of this collection.  I think it’s one of my favorite Christmas ones of all time. I inked all the paper edges with my prima inkers in green to make them pop off the craft cover.
   So tell me…what is your favorite Christmas paper collection past or present?
    Until next time…Keep Scrappin!

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop

November 24, 2014

     Hi everyone and welcome to day one of the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop.  You should have arrived here from Lisa’s blog.
    The idea of this hop is to give you 12 days of inspiration to get those Christmas projects done.  You may see cards, layouts, mini albums, altered items or home decor…you’ll have to visit each day to not miss a thing.
     For my project today I chose to make a Christmas card, but a style you don’t see so often…criss cross.  I liked how this style gave my Doodlebug Designs paper a real chance to shine.  With minimal other embellishments you really get a chance to see how awesome these papers are.
     One of the fun things about a criss cross card is the insert is another opportunity to embellish and use your cool tools.  To make my pull tab I used the Epiphany crafts shape tool along with some of the patterned paper.  I was really thrilled with how this project came out.
     Now before you head off to Scrappin Madge’s I’d love if you followed me here and on my Facebook page (link on the sidebar).  I’ll be back later in the hop schedule to share more inspiration with you.  Until next time…Keep Scrapping!
