    Stamp as many words onto the clay strips as you like, cutting them out as you go along.

    Arrange the words into a baking tray and bake the clay in the oven as per instructions on the Sculpey packaging - 130 degree Celsius or 275 degree Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes. My oven is a bit hot and so I baked mine for about 12 minutes.

    After the clay has cooled and hardened, attached the magnet tape to the back. (Optional) For extra security, I put 2 tiny drops of superglue at each end of the tape to ensure that the magnet sticks to the clay super well.
