making bottlecap magnets



Have you ever seen those cute bottlecap magnets and wondered how to make them?  It is so easy... today I am going to show you how.  Start with plain bottlecaps.  I bought mine at Archiver's but I think you can get them much cheaper if you buy in bulk.  Start by punching out 1 inch circles out of scrapbook paper.


Once you have your images punched, put a little bit of glossy accents http://www.rangerink.com/products/prod_inkssentials_glossy.htm


Put the image on top of the glossy accents, then add a layer of glossy accents on top.  Let them dry overnight.


Once they are dry you can add your magnet to the back with a little hot glue.


You are done... display on a magnet board, your back door, anything magnetic.  Fun, right?


Come back tomorrow and see the magnet boards I made to go with them!
