Magnetic mini frames


Hi! These are tiny frames.. Can hold just a passport sized or so pic.. The base is an old invitation card sponged with Evergreen Bough and Black Soot distress inks. The die-cut panel (SpellBinders Delicate Doilies die set) was also sponged with the same inks and stamped with a Technique Tuesdays stamp whose name I am not able to recollect now.. happens all the time with me :) The magnetic base and backing were prepared similar to that in a previous post..

Here is another similar mini frame:

Photo fridge magnet for my neighbour


My neighbour is a very sweet lady.. her daughter's family stays abroad and so she misses being with him. But her daughter keeps sending her his pics on Whatsapp.. Having a son almost that age, I understand how cherished these memories would be for her.. So I made this fridge magnet for her as a gift..
(Again, please excuse me for the pic.. even the stray glue marks show..hmm !!)

I cut two pieces of card stock of equal dimensions for the base (to give it proper strength), rounded the corners with my Docrafts Corner Cutter and stuck them together. Then matted a DCWV pattern paper after rounding its corners too. Then I die-cut the photo using Spellbinders Nestabilities Blossoms 4 die and matted it on to black card stock cut with the same die. The embellishment are glass stones that we usually find in our homes for decor (to put in fish tanks, glass bowls etc), some pearls and a Portacraft sticker with ribbon bought from Itsy Bitsy during the recent summer sale.. I bought the Spellbinders Die too on the same sale and was raring to try it :-). After sticking it all together, I stuck some self-adhesive magnetic tape (that hubby bought for me in a US craft store - was on my wishlist and on his phone to-do list for a long time :-)) on the back to convert it to a fridge magnet.



So, how has this turned out??
