Crafting with Aluminum Can Labels
Recycle and Reuse!
I’ve shared many of the cards I have created over the years using beer or soda aluminum cans.
My husband drinks a variety of craft beers, and I’m always confiscating the cans afterwards.
I cut the cans down and use the fun and colorful labels to create cards.
It’s good to recycle and reuse, plus they make great masculine-themed cards!
I used the label from a can of root beer from the Rocky Mountain Soda Company located in Denver, CO.
What’s different about this card is that I didn’t actually use the can for my card.
The can does not have a printed label. Instead the label is a vinyl sleeve.
I ran a pair of scissors down the side to remove the label.
To make it easy, there was a perforated seam.
I was able to carefully peel the label from the can once the seam was cut.
Then, it was just a matter of flattening the label, attaching it to a piece of card stock so I could easily cut it to the size I needed, mat the pieces, and attach to a card front.
The greeting is from Celebrate Flowers.
This card is a great masculine-themed card, coming together in just a few minutes.

Take a look at beer and soda cans for their interesting and unique labels.
I guarantee, you’ll never look at an aluminum can the same way again!
The possibilities are endless!
