Magnets in Bloom



















Hello everyone !!!
How would you like to get creative and use these blooms as magnets? Every year in our demonstrator's group, we have to make a giftable item for everybody. Here is what I came up with. I bought these 2x2 tiles from a local hardware store and turned them into magnets. I used the Eastern Blooms rub-ons to decorate these magnets and accented them with white brads. I adhere them in the tiles with sticky strip. I found these red plates that made a nice holder for them.

RECIPE:
Stamps: Eastern Blooms
Paper: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip
Ink: Riding Hood Red, White Craft
Accessories: Chocolate grosgrain ribbon, brads, cello bags
Tools: 3/4" circle punch, 1-3/8 square punch, 1/4" circle punch, sticky strip, dimensionals






Here is my finished gift giving project-
Magnets in Bloom.



Thanks for stopping by.
