Use my settings for cutting and engraving the design. You can resize it - if you make it much bigger, you might want to adjust the lines of the engraving, or switch to scoring).

 

The given settings are working for 10W M1 machine, adjust if needed.

The design itself is great already with simple engraving, but you can pop it up with a bit of colors. You can use pencil, markers, or whatever you like to use. I like acrylic markers for this type of task, these were created with Ohuhu markers (available here)

Wait until it dries.

I like to add extra sealing on fridge magnets too - to make the super secure. You can decide on matte or glossy varnish, or UV resin; I added Pentart's glossy varnish to these ones. It's not necessary, but makes it extra durable.

Use an extra strong glue to add the magnets to the back. Make sure that the magnets are strong enough to keep these magnets in place.
