I was making my blog rounds this morning, and ran across this idea from Crafty Goat. And since I love polymer clay AND bottle cap art, this worked for me! (Alternatively, I could use my polyclay and then have a brew. That also works for me!)
Anyhoo, she suggests making your own molds from cool buttons with Amazing Molding Putty. All well and good, but I often just use scrap clay for making molds. (Just be double-sure to use a release in the baked mold, such as a spritz of water, a dusting of corn starch, or even a quick spray of wrinkle-releaser!)
The result is this fun card/button combo, just right for a little birthday giftie or Mother’s Day! Thanks, Angela, for getting my creative juices flowing!

You’re very welcome, Jenny. If you don’t have Amazing Mold Putty (or prefer not to use it), scrap clay works wonderfully. And if you don’t have a bottlecap… well, it sounds like you’ve got that one figured out too! 🙂
