Monday’s Magnetic Challenge (and POM)…
… and what a fun challenge this is!
Today’s KS Crew Challenge is hosted by Lynn McAuley. Lynn has double the fun for us today. Her challenge is also KSS February’s – Project of the Month! YaHoo, Lynn!
Lynn’s challenge is: Create a Refrigerator Magnet. Use your computer to generate a favorite quote, witty saying, or scripture and then use your Kitchen Sink Stamps to turn it into a wonderful bit of refrigerator art! Size should be no larger than 4″ x 4″ but can be any shape you choose as long as it fits into a 4 x 4 space on your refrigerator.
Boy, was I stumped with Lynn’s challenge! I knew it was going to be fun … but my two biggest challenge were… what quote or saying was I going to use and did I have 4″x4″ space available on my fridge???!!! LOL!
For the quote, a dear friend reminded me of a quote I hadn’t heard for quiet a while and thought it would make a wonderful magnet. So, I reached for my “Go To” set… 3 Step Daisy and started stamping! After all my pieces were together, I run it through my 510 Xyron using the Laminate/Magnet cartridge. Easy Peasy!!! … and can be wiped clean if some spaghetti sauce should happen to hit it … did I mention I have 2 boys?! LOL!
So, here is my magnet (and I found a spot on my fridge!) for Lynn’s challenge.

For more magnetic inspiration, the KS Crew has more for your viewing!

Thank you Lynn for the inspiring challenge & fabulous project! Your challenge was a blast! A FUN project that can also be a meaningful and quick gift! I thought it would be fun to give the magnet to my friend as a card. With a few glue dots on the back of the magnet … I now how a card and gift all in one.
