My apologies for the lousy photos, but I couldn't wait to share! These are so cute and fast. They are magnets
. We are making these in school for Mother's Day. I used a Georgia Pacific White CS from WalMart and an inexpensive set of school grade colored pencils . You would not believe how smoothly the color went on this paper. The red square in the photo is a magnetized label that is 2x2. My husband brought home a bag full of these when the company discontinued using them and threw them in the trash. (Dumpster Diving!) There is a slick plastic surface (red) on the magnet. . I used the Tombow glue and spread it on thinly with the wide tip. It worked like a charm! When
dry I covered them with a coat of Modge Podge to protect them a little. I stamped 85 pieces for the kids to color, and completed 9 , from start to finish in an hour and a half! Hope the kids have as much fun as I did!
