Red Sox bottle cap keychain

Using a bottle cap from Mike's hard lemonade, I bent the crimp out and ran it through my Big Shot to flatten it out.
Used my Crop-a-Dial to punch a hole for the chain to be put on last.
I printed the logo on photo paper and sized it to 1". Punched it out and glued it to the cap.
Once dry I added a glaze.

DPhiE keychains

I made these for my daughter and two of her sorority sisters. This and the next items are actually post graduation gifts which I will be mailing today. Hope they like them!
 I printed the image onto photo paper, used my 1" circle punch and used a strong glue to glue it to the metal bottle cap.
I used a bubble (sorry don't know the official name) clear dome sticker to cover and protect the image.
I proceeded to use 7 links of a thick chain and placed it through the bottle cap and the key ring.
I bought some lobster claw charms from Wal-Mart in the sorority colors (gold and purple) and added them to the links for a little dangle accent. (Ignore the pink blur in the photo - my G2 cell phone is experiencing a white balance issue)

SU Bottlecap keychain

I made this for my Stampin' Up friend Judi.
She sells SU and is moving to Florida and I'll miss her, but look forward to the opportunity to see her there at some point for a visit!

I made this for her, while it is not what I originally intended to do with the bottle cap, I like it just the same.

Sorry if the picture is bury, the glaze/covering over the paper images and accents give off a slight glare.

I used a 1" circle punch to punch out the Stampin Up logo that I took from the back of the spring catalog. To retain the curved sides I kept the shape and just trimmed the top and bottom of the logo because it had bright white paper and I wanted a more printed background.
I used the 1" circle punch again and punched out the circle from Designer Series Paper. Sorry don't know the line as I am not good at remember... I just go for what I like!
Using the embosslits, I punched out the butterfly and the heart also from the same double sided paper, but used the other side!
Glued it all down and placed a 1" clear bubble over the images to preserve and protect. I was going to use a glue but time would not been on my side as I made it before I went to Judi's last class.

I like how it came out and plan on making more with different images and words.
Best of luck Judi!!! I'll miss you - but will see you in FL!

Hope Judi don't kill me - ha ha. Here is a pic when we were at our weekend crop in Maine in 2011. We had fun, with a small group. During one of the days, her and I walked the Marginal Way.
