Product Description

This fabulous kit will create two paperweights with cork backing:

The kit contains:
  • 2 - 2-1/4" flat-backed glass discs
  • 2 - 2-1/4" cork circles
  • 3 - 2-1/4" white cardstock circles
  • 8 - steel magnets, dark gray in color - 1/2" in diameter, 3/16" thick (not pictured)


The enormous glass discs are 1/4" (6mm) thick and very large - 2-1/4" (60mm) in diameter. They feature scant bubbles within the glass. The cork is 1/16" thick (2mm). Cardstock used is Papertrey Ink Stampers Select white cardstock - a thick, quality cardstock. An extra cardstock circle is enclosed for any rubber stamping errors.

To assemble, simply stamp image and color, using waterproof inks.
  1. Dispense a layer of Glossy Accents or similar adhesive onto the glass disc back and using your finger, smear completely over the back of the glass disc.
  2. Adhere stamped image.
  3. Remove any air bubbles with an old credit card.
  4. Finish sealing cardstock edges to glass disc using your fingers, and use baby wipes for clean up.
  5. Adhere cork to the back also using Glossy Accents or similar adhesive.
Presto! An instant gift you won't want to give away!

If you want this element made into a magnet, ignore the last step above and adhere four magnets (eight magnets are enclosed) to the back of the cardstock layer instead of the cork.
