New Digistamps4Joy digi (Sunday 20 Oct.2013)

I found these gorgeous bottle caps in my local craft store and decided to create some digistamps for the DS4J store. This is the first set I put together and it consists of 4 different sentiments - each a separate file. They are sized at 1" for printing, and can be punched out very easily with a 1" circle punch.
 This is the card I made to use one of these bottle cap sentiments on. 
I bought this fabulous embossing folder a while ago. I added Platinum Stickles to the embossed frame and swirls, added a touch of grey pencil to the inside of the frame, and then corner-punched the corners of the card. Then I coloured up "Bella Bridesmaid" with aqua pencils and OMS during the monochromatic colouring class I recently gave. The bottle cap sentiment was lightly coloured with grey pencil on the outer edge, and some Stickles added to the main word. The sentiment was glued inside the bottle cap (which I first pushed through the Cuttlebug to curl the edges), then I covered the whole sentiment with Glossy Accents. Here is the detailed photo of the bottle cap sentiment.

TIP: When you put the bottle cap through the Cuttle bug, use this plate order (bottom to top), and remember to put the sharp end of the bottle cap facing the B plate with all the diecut scratches on it. If you have it the other way around your 'nice' "B" plate will end up with indentations!
 "A" plate
"B" plate
bottle cap with edges facing UP!
Rubber embossing mat (essential)
"B" plate with all the scratches

This new set of bottle cap sentiments is available in the Digistamps4Joy shop.
