using bottle caps and baby food jar lids...
I really love this tutorial from pretty little things
MATERIALS:
- baby food jar lids, water bottle cap lids
- permanent marker
- puff paint
- versa magic ink pad
step two: draw over your design carefully with puffy paint, try to make lines as even as possible (you may have to go over them again after it dries)
step three: let dry for 4-6 hours
step four: use a versa magic ink pad to stamp image (found versa magic works well and washes off the bottle caps easily)
I actually really like the round design that the raised edges of the caps made and the uneven lines from the puff paint--gives an "antique" look to it.
