A lot of people ask me, "How do you do it?"  So I thought it might be interesting for you to follow me through the process of making one of my car magnets.  (If not, well, just click on the red boxed X up in the corner.)   ....................No?  Ok, so, let's get started.

Step # 1.  I start by sketching a design on 110# card stock.  (If it's a more serious magnet                  from your photo, I print your picture onto the cardstock. )

Step # 2.  Then I cut out the design with scissors and an Exacto knife.

Step # 3.  I lay the cardstock design on top of the sheet magnet and trace around it.

Step # 4.  I now cut out the magnet with scissors and an Exacto Blade.

Step # 5.  Here's where I have to redraw the design onto the magnet with a pencil.

Step # 6.  Next, I lay on the base coat over the entire magnet....

Step # 7.  ....And start shading in and adding some basic details.

Step # 8.  Add the outline...

Step # 9.  Top coat with a clear acrylic spray...

Step # 10.  ...sign the back and it's finished!

One hand-painted car magnet!
