Caring Primitive Hangtag Magnet

It's always fun to see how many ways you can use grungy'd up Primitive Hangtags. I use mine a lot for tags on gifts, naturally. But why not use them as the gifts themselves? One thing you can do is make Primitive Magnets out of them. Here's one example, my Caring Primitive Hangtag Magnet.

You start with a grungy hangtag, approximately 1-1/2" by 3-1/2" in size. Then, using whatever vintage or primitive rubber stamp image that you like, stamp on top of the grungy hangtag. This one features a vintage image of a woman. I embellished her a bit by adding some brown ink lightly over her face, and adding a rhinestone gem to be her earring. Then I just created a distressed-looking word embellishment for "caring." Once the image is how you want it, just adhere it to a business card-sized craft magnet. Then use a craft knife to cut away the excess magnet, and finish it off by using a hole punch to punch a hole through the magnet at the top of the tag. Voila! Primitive Hangtag Magnet, and it's perfect as a gift all by itself. 

You could do this with rubber stamp images, word art, sayings, primitive graphics--really, the possibilities are as limitless as the imagination.
