Hello! I'm back again today with another Twinchie refrigerator magnet ... I told you a felt a series of these coming on!
This pretty Lemons and Bay Leaves image is by Karen Lockhart. I stamped it on Copic's X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored it with these Copic markers:
Speaking of Copic Markers, there are only a few days left in July that you can still purchase Copics at the current pricing. On August 1 the MSRP of Copic markers goes up, but until then you can still get current pricing at Ellen Hutson LLC! And while you're there be sure to check out the tool category, where everything is automatically 20% off (no code needed, until the end of today, July 28) ... including the ruler I used and mention below!
Next, I couldn't bear to not use the whole image on my magnet, so I trimmed the image into approximately a 1-3/4 inch square around the image so it would fit onto my Inchie Arts 2-inch Twinchie Square! Next, I did some faux stitching on the image, using Tim Holtz's Design Ruler and a paper piercer, and then connected the holes with Copic's Gold Atyou Spica Glitter Pen.
I used Copic G24 to color the edges of the white Twinchie Square and then mounted my trimmed out image to the Twinchie. Gina K's Sweet Corn cardstock die cut with Spellbinders Lacey Square Nestabilities frames the image. The thickness and weight of the Twinchie matboard gives the magnet good stability. Of course, on the back of the image/cardstock are Inchie Magnets to hold it on the refrigerator!
I hope you'll enjoy making some of these for yourself! ~Sharon
