This is a project we'll be doing at my "For Her" stamp camp next month. I used the Simple Florals set - stamped one on each side of the bottle in versamark. Clear embossed them. Once cooled, applied Armor Etch cream. Let sit 5 min - then rinse w/tap water. Super easy and a great WOW! I did each side with a stamp to show the campers what each one looks like. I'm going to recommend only stamping 1 side and plain etching the others. I think this will draw more focus to the stamped image. There's another image here: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers that shows just one side completed.

forgot to put in there that the post of the one-sided bottle also has a link for the post that inspired me to try it. That stamper also has highly detailed directions on her post.

I love this idea, Thanks for sharing. I checked out out the link for the directions, and now I can't wait to try this for myself. I love the tall bottle look.

I applied it with a sponge brush in a fairly thick layer. Brush all directions - up, down, left and right to insure even coverage. Are you using the same brand of etch cream I did? I just followed the directions on the bottle. Hope that helps!
