Bigger glas magnets...

With my crow...

...and of course again the little chameleon and snake skeleton from Karen (the graphics fairy)!

I am still experimenting how to get the snake with the best effect on fabric ^^

I displayed my magnets on an empty whisky package which is made out of metal. 

Okay, without glas nuggets some stars. But I also love them :)

The horse silhouette I also created from a graphic from Karen and the tree from a foto I made.

Some stamped airdrying clay... i didn't smoothe the edges... I wanted to see the effect it created.

 

Post it's with magnets on the back... like the ones of the advent calenders last year.

...and even some colour under glas ^^

Under glas - pink ornaments

I confess: I love glas nuggets!

There is something so cool and also fascinating about the magnification effect of the glas.

Decopatch paper was glued under the bottom. I added magnetic adhesive tape (I love it!) afterwards. This is so much easier to use than magnets itself ^^

The glas nugget itself is a little bigger than my last ones. But I bought only two of them... sniff.

Cute little bones I - Under glas

I love all the little skeletal pictures of graphics fairy! Maybe because I am a biologist, maybe because I am a little bit weird ^^, but there is a strange but very delicate beauty in a skeletal system. There is even an impression of movement if I look at them!

So I thought about, what I could do with her pictures... Here is my first one. Just takes the time for printing and some glue to dry ^^

I printed this one very small (half an inch maybe?), glued it on a glas nugget (yes, I found some new ones!) and after drying put a layer of white acrylic paint on the back. This is as well for protection as for getting a brigther background.

This glas nugget had a lot of little air bubbles inside. I like imperfections like this, it is the final touch on everything. :)

Little "written" glas stones...

Everybody uses this little glas nuggets to make cool decorational stuff. I love them (and it is years ago sinced I made my own ones)! So I was infected again and I made some with writings. I found some clear and light blue glas nuggets (I found more but the rest was not transparent enough to see something through the glas).

I just put the glas nuggets on a printed script, marked the shape around the glas nuggets, cut the paper piece out and glued it under the nugget (I used a transparent gemstone glue pen which was really cheap ^^). Afterwards I added a layer of white acrylic paint and that was it.

I love this magnifying glass effect especially on this non readable old script ^^

Beside the old script I printed some writings in a bigger size and searched for some word I liked in it to put them in the center and therefore "magnify" them. The basic (if you are curious) is Goethes "Faust II" in german.

Phöbus´ Räder - Phoebus´ wheels

Mondes - of the moon

  

Stern an (Stern) - Star at (star)

Funken - spark

I think the little flaws in the glas make a special effect :)

Together with some more :)

Dämmerung - dwan / twilight

Erdgeboren - earth born (earthlings in the english translation I found)

Elfen - Elves

The can be put on magnets, on card, on gifts or collages... or just be used as they are. I like to make some with a special meaning for other persons.
