Soda Pop Trinkets - Take Two

 I promised yesterday that I would show you the other side to the Soda Pop Tops, so, for those of you that missed yesterday so that you don't have to go back in time, here is the front:

and here is the back.  I personalized them by punching more Silver Glimmer paper with the 1/2" Circle Punch (119869) and then stamped the girls' initials with the Simply Serif Mini Alphabet (126360) and then punched that out with the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) - it equals a 3/8" circle and works perfectly.

Here's a close-up so you can see what I used for the loop.  These are cute little scissor charms I found and way over purchased - let's just say that reading the details on eBay are very helpful so you don't end up with more little scissors than you know what to do with!  HA ha HA!

They were finished off with the little ball-chain keyring chains.  They could also be threaded with a small ribbon, the 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon would be a perfect size for that.

I gave them to the girls Saturday morning at our workshop.  I think they liked them... I hope they did anyway!

Well, another busy day today celebrating my stepdaughter's birthday.  We're off to BBQ at her house with the new BBQ she and her boyfriend are getting for their birthday.  Her birthday was Friday and his is later this month, so it's a two birds kind of day!  :)

Happy Sunday!

God Bless

Soda Pop Top Trinkets

I spotted this idea on another blog last week and fell in love with it, especially since I had recently purchased so many of the bottle caps and needed something really fun to do with them.

I'll show you the other side tomorrow - after I've given them to their recipients.  I don't want to spoil the surprise!

You can make these too, very easily.  Simply purchase the Soda Pop Tops (129388) from our Spring Mini Catalog, but don't wait to long, the catalog is only good until May 31st.  Punch a circle from the Silver Glimmer Paper (124005) with the 1" Circle Punch (119868), punch the hearts using the Owl Builder Punch (118074) and the Small Heart Punch (117193) from the Red Glimmer Paper (121790).  I printed out the SU label and snipped them out to go inside.

Using the Crystal Effects (101055) put a little CE in the bottom and then add the Silver Glimmer.  Put a dot of CE under each item you put in, this helps keep them from floating up (but watch them anyway, in case the do float up a bit) when you fill in with more CE.  Cover everything with CE and make sure to push them down with a toothpick if they start to float up - you may also have some bubbles coming from under the circle when air escapes.

It will be cloudy until completely dry, just let it sit at least overnight, longer if possible. You can see these below at different stages of drying and setting up.
