I am making mine larger. I am printing the chips from screenshots of the actual chips on Pantone website (not sure how cool that is, but I am not selling these). 1) They make awesome office gifts for marketing people. 2) Someone here suggested Triple Thick gkaze. Costs a lot less and dries 3 times as fast. Looks the same. Magnet sheets I found that hold paper are 20 mil thick stick on. They do not separate. 3) To glue paper to board (I use old mat board) use extra strength glue stick. Super thin coating. Also, I would not suggest cutting anything thicker than a thick paper with an exacto knife. I have too many battle scars. Use a utility knife for the board. Change blades often! <br /><br />Thanks so much Jess!

We use them all the time and they're recognizable by the Pantone name and color number at the bottom. In fact, Pantone has licensed their images to tons of manufacturers, keeping the block of color at the top with the white area at the bottom. Some examples:<br />http://www.seletti.it/pantone/pantone_xmas_ball.htm<br />http://www.popdeluxe.net/pantone-mug-single.html<br /><br />So it's fun (for me) to keep it on there since it's sort of a graphic design inside joke. But you certainly could cut it off if you like! Or use any other kind of paint swatch.Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-46883568864240669672012-07-23T22:42:00.416-05:002012-07-23T22:42:00.416-05:00These really are beautiful!

I think it would look better without it but I figured you probably have a reason for keeping it on there. Just curious.
