Have you ever looked more image file and wondered what to do with them? No doubt you've considered making their own greeting cards - Certainly. It also produces family and friends of my own desktop calendars, and recently began trying to produce my fridge magnets after my own wife took some photos of her young son and wanted a souvenir of a special occasion to give their parents.
I began to study the proposed magnet refrigerator with just looking at the door of my fridge, I had collected a variety magnets for several years. There were all types, some with only names and addresses, some with emergency phone numbers, some times, some with photos, information and some that were just memories. There was even one with an image Plexiglas embedded in the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway in the Lake District in England.
There were also differences in the way they face - is attached to the magnet, a magnet that some had covered the entire back, while others have used a small piece of tape. And, Add to these differences, some have been laminates.
My next step was to investigate some of the kits available for the production of refrigerator magnets. I ended up with one that contains enough material to produce 20 magnets. It consisted of two plastic sheets easy inkjet labels and two die-cut sheets of magnetic material. There was also a model to allow my images to be placed in the correct position for individual labels.
I began by exploring the template file and the burden of My Top Program DTP (InDesign, but I can use any similar program will do). Then I prepared the image and resize 84x46mm - 90x52mm rectangle Modelo and the manufacturer recommends that you allow 3mm around the image to facilitate the queue. The images are placed in the rectangles in the model and added words. I printed the results on plain paper, so I can make sure everything was in place prior to printing in special foil label.
Once the images labels were printed on plastic, which must leave the road and stuck to the magnetic material. The labels are self-adhesive plastic and more easily for I believe that together with the magnetic material has been placed in a role not paste into the magnetic material so that I can give Just set the image of the label firmly in position. Then I could easily without adhesive paper labels and gradually releases the label for the magnetic material. Thus, I managed to get most of the labels of right and without bubbles. The lack of adhesive paper that is used a sheet that had been a backing sheet to some labels.
I wanted to see if I could roll the refrigerator magnets fills an A4 sheet of labels has been nurtured by my rolling machine. It was a mixed result. The laminate is done in most cases the markers, but, having adorned the magnets, laminate on the side of Magnetic eliminated. That was good in some cases but in others it leads to the laminate to leave the front of the magnet as well. However, the magnets unlaminated looked good, but I think that after having followed instructions and images produced less than the support, I did not like the amount of white border and instead of cutting the last magnet the size of the image. The I made a cutting edge. This of course is a personal preference, and reflection, I think a thin white stripe that goes well.
It also decided to try a different approach to the production of laminated refrigerator magnets without using a fridge magnet kits. Encore Once you've created a template from my DTP program with the intention magnets rolling over in a few card-size laminating pockets had. I chose an image size of 55x90mm and implement the model accordingly. Once printed, I cut the individual images and put in the pockets of business cards. As this is an experiment, also issued a second sheet that was wrapped in a bag of A4 and then cut into individual images. Packed card worked best, because the images completely closed. Sometimes, only sometimes laminate cutter versions showed signs of delamination.
I bought a roll of self-adhesive magnetic material a craft store and glued a small piece of this in the back of each photo before putting them in the book in my office. They look great, but the next morning, all but one of the images were on the floor with the tape still in the drawer of the filing.
Then remembered the rubber cement that I use to mount the photos for framing. This Pasta is a very flexible, photographs as if sticking one surface is easy to remove the photo of his band, while if the two surfaces are glued and the glue dry before being mounted, Permanent Link is achieved.
And, using the latter method, which was able to make a firm commitment from the magnetic stripe laminated refrigerator magnet and my wife's hand fridge magnet recall it had requested.
When you make refrigerator magnets, consider developing of a large one, for example the size of a postcard that includes your photo and below it, a calendar year - you may find programs that produce calendars can use. Take a look on the Internet.
