My Aunty Joyce is in her late 70's and makes these little fridge magnets and sells them at the local flea markets, as well as giving them to all her friends and relatives as little gifts. She also makes all her own cards, complete with prettily decorated envelopes. She makes them all by hand, using cute little pictures she's cut from cards or magazines, decorates them with glitter and clue, and carefully writes all the witty sayings, some of which she comes up with herself. Then she trims them and laminates them and fixes the magnets to the back. She has a wonderful sense of humour, and I thought I'd share some of them with you. They don't scan really well (glitter never does), so I can't show you how pretty they are. Here's some of my favourites:
Doggie HeavenDear God, why don't humans smell each other instead of flowers?
Dear God, when I get to heaven, can I sleep on the bed instead of the floor?
Dear God, may I have more meat balls than spaghetti?
And Dear God, may I please have my testicles back also?
Amen.

I managed to scan them, they haven't come up too badly, but they're still prettier in reality.
