Easter Egg Photo Magnet

My daughter received her school pictures back this past week– just in time for Easter! I’ve had an idea in my head for a magnet project with my Cricut, so I decided to use the photos for this Easter Egg Photo Magnet. This magnet is sized for wallet size photos.

Supplies:

  • Cricut with Easter cartridge- I have the Easter 2010 cartridge.
  • Spring card stock
  • Chip board (thick card stock)
  • Scotch double sided tape
  • Glue
  • Scissors

 

Begin by cutting a 4″ egg shape. Cut a 3″ egg shape inside the 4″ egg shape. I had to try this a few times to get it just right.

Lay the photo on the chip board egg and cut it to fit.

Glue the card stock “frame” over the egg. I used pink Elmer’s glue because it was all I could find. The little one hides all my glue.

Done!

I paired this with a matching Easter cupcake topper that I shared last week.
