Hi there, Kangaroopals! Love your site. Are the magnets done with specific glass gems? I've used the flat glass "marbles" at the craft store and made them without pics before, and I love yours. Do the pics have an adhesive on the front?
I also use the X-acto and mat alot. When I was making up ads at a newspaper, I couldn't live without my X-acto!
I used glass gems. These gems are clear so it shows thru. Earlier, I bought some in the craft stores and does not work well. The photo was blur and cloudy. I found the clear ones here: http://www.wholesalersusainc.com/game-gems-clear-noniridized-1719mm-p-1792.html.
I use a silicon glue to stick the picture to the gem. You can find in the craft stores. They are so many. Chose the most appropriate for you. Hope this helps.
Postcards and note cards featuring my own creation of the mini felted owls. Gathered together for a snap shop... now here for you. Available at my little studio here . Set of postcards owls... having fun together. owls... friendship
I am quite happy that my new owls got to be in her website. I made an entry to a contest for "Calling all crafters" for all your best creations at marthastewart.com, and I am one of the winners. Take a look at www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/your-best-handmade-cre... I am creating more owls, but in a slow pace... got to find more time.
These are the newest versions I made. They are my newest companions. It only take me 2-3 hours to create one, but with full time work and 2 boys... only late nights I can find some time to sit down and star cutting the many small triangles in different felt colors. Then... the rest is fun! A family :)...Yes! I am one of the winners for submitting these owls to a contest called "Calling all crafters" at martha stewart web site... www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/your-best-handmade-cre... More owls... more flat cards.... I can't get enough. See new items posted on my little shop.
