These are the clear stones you find in the floral section of craft stores. I purchased them at Garden Ridge. I think Micheals carries the smaller version but you have to use a smaller stamp with them. Sets such as Bitty Bolds ect. They are very easy to make. Stamp the image and place 3 drops of crystal effects on the stone. Press down and let the crystal effects dry about 5 minutes. Cut around the stone and glue gun the magnet on the back. Well ah cute magnets.! :d
These are adorable. I want to make these for the teachers at my daughter's school. I can't keep the ink from running though. Do you have any suggestions?

My friend Nancy made these for convention and we found the same thing occurring with the red for the nose and the black for the eyes. You can either use pencils (however the color is not so dark) or try a little less crystal effects on the stone. We found about 2/3 had some running and the others did not. Good luck they are really cute gifts!

These are so so cute. I have all the supplies to make these. I followed the directions but having a problem when I cut the paper. Did you punch out a circle first then cut. The magnet looks like the white paper is all around the stone. How did you do that? Please help. Anyone have any idea.
