I don’t have any washi tape… I already have way too much trouble staying away from the remnant bin, the scrapbook paper, and the ribbon isles at the craft stores! I can’t add washi tape to my list of “things to hoard.” at least not yet ;)
I do, as previously mentioned, have a lot of scrapbook paper. We are talking about a stack at least 2 feet tall! That is a lot of paper for someone who does digital scrapbooking! Maybe that’s not as bad as some of you, but I think it’s pretty bad. And seriously unorganized…but that’s another story.
Good thing there a lots and lots of other projects that use cute scrapbook paper that I can justify my addiction with!
This project is a great way to use up your scraps if you’ve got a lot of little scraps lying around. This project is quick, too. I whipped out more than a dozen of these magnets in less than half an hour. Here’s just a few:
All you need is some cute scrapbook paper {or you can use washi tape if you are a washi-hoarder}, some adhesive magnets {sheets or roll}, and scissors. 
If you go with adhesive-backed magnet tape like i did, they will be a little curvy when you cut them to the size you want. 
Just bend them back the other way and then let them sit on the fridge for a little while to flatten out a bit. If you skip this step your paper will wrinkle. Much like the white adhesive-protective paper on the magnets here.
Next, cut your paper to size.
Remove the white protective paper and then stick on your cute paper.
Rub it on the table {cute paper side down} to help secure it to the magnet. 
Now cut some rugged edges and you’re done!
You could modge-podge over the paper to give it a little more protection. Me and modge-podge don’t always play nice, so I skipped that step this time.
That’s it! A quick little way to jazz up your fridge!
More washi-tape magnet inspiration~ My favorite ones are here and I originally saw them here
Now those are cute! Hmmm...I don't have a ton of scrapbook paper but maybe this will be use for the little I do have...
