Thanks to Lisa Johnson of Poppy Paperie. If you haven't visited her blog you should, her work is amazing. I found this project there and decided to give it a try. I am quite pleased with my results. The back of each of the ovals is a magnet, punched from the freebie ones that you get in the mail and my husband insists on saving! To remove the advertisement on the front I carefully pried up a corner and then heated it with my heat gun to help me peel off the paper. I created the monogram with my JustRite Stamper - I am seriously loving that product - and punched it out with my pink scallop punch from Marvy. I computer generated the quote and used the same punch on that piece. To try and make it a little more durable, I put paper glaze over both pieces before I glued them to the magnet.
Now that I have the hang of it all, I think these will make really great little gifts and we all know the holidays are coming!
enjoy!

I really like this idea! I had thought of using the magnets - but not this way.... Excellent!
