Recycle Your Pop Cans

Let's recycle our pop cans! For this swap, you will die-cut a metal embellishment from a pop can and use it in a project for your partner. It is sender's choice of what to make. You can make a tag, card, ATC, embellishment, etc. Whatever you make is great as long as there is a metal die-cut from a pop can on your project. You can use the silver side (inside of pop can) or the colored side (outside of pop can). You can die-cut letters or whole words if you would like. You can color the pop can die-cuts with alcohol markers or use acrylic paint and you can even emboss them if you want. Have fun and be creative. In the picture above, I have used the color side of a pop can to die-cut the butterfly for the project. ***Note: If your die is intricate it will cut out better if you use a metal plate in your sandwich to cut the die. Also be careful when cutting your pop can as it can be sharp. I use scissors to open the pop can and use protective eye wear and gloves as an extra precaution. Do your best work and send something that you would love to receive yourself. If you have any questions, please message me.

Include with your swap the swap title and your swap ID.

No 1's or 3's in the last year with no previous history of unexplained 1's or 3's. You must have at least a 4.9 rating to participate in this swap.

This swap is sender's choice, so if you are very specific about what you can and cannot receive or have a list of dislikes a mile long, this swap is not for you!

Rate your partner upon receipt of your swap. No one should have to hunt down a rating! In my opinion, non-raters are just as bad as flakers!

If you receive the swap and it meets the swap requirements, you must rate a 5 even if it is not your style or something you personally like. Hearts are available if you absolutely loved the swap and thought it was amazing! A 3 rating is for swaps that do not meet requirements or that are late. Please do not be the “Swap Police!” You don't need to investigate every detail of a swap to see if it “cleared the rules” or look at postmarks hoping to catch someone mailing a day late! If it is obvious fine, but don't be petty and go looking for minor “infractions!” A 1 rating is if you did not receive your swap. I will angel those who do not receive a swap I host after they have tried to resolve the situation with their swap partner and are unable to resolve the problem and after they have rated their partner a 1.

Please be kind and respectful – no drama! Swap-bot is supposed to be fun! :)
