BOOM! WHAM! KRACK-OW!

I've been waiting a long time to share this particular project on here because - guess what? Instead of just recording another project I'd like to start, this is one I finished! I completed it a few weeks ago, but since it was a gift, I couldn't share it without ruining the surprise.

POW! CRASH! BAMF! Comic book magnets!

Bonus Serenity for good measure!

Loki, mischievous as always.

Aren't they great? And a great way to introduce more fandom into daily life. These little guys feature Hellboy, Nightcrawler and Loki.

For her birthday, I asked my friend what her fave comic book characters were, and set out to find them - but I realized that most of these are newer characters that I might not find in the dollar bin at my local comic book shop. So a better solution for me was to find the images online, which worked because I didn't have to buy comics for 3-4 different characters. Instead I was able to save the images I needed, size them for print, purchase my supplies, and craft away!


Baby Hellboy!

TIP: I noticed the magnets I purchased made a few scuff marks on my white fridge. Solution? A bit of clear top coat nail polish on the back, and all was well.


You can see the thin coat of clear nail polish on the back of this piece.

I think I should make some for myself, but I'm into several fandoms.

Hmm... Doctor Who magnets, anyone? Or perhaps Sailor Moon? :)
