Favorite Find, Magnetic Snaps!
Happy Friday!!! I am so excited, we’re heading to the Zoo today for a Preschool Field Trip! I can’t wait, the boys are going to LOVE that!

So I have a product that I’d LOVE to tell you about! I know these Magnetic Snaps are not new at ALL, but they are new to me! I sorta bought them on a whim and have used a whole pack now! LOL! They are SO COOL! I made this Z fold card. (I used the awsome tutorial that I saw at Beate’s Blog.) Well the Z fold obvioulsy dosen’t stay closed very well…and I couldn’t think of an embellishment to put on the card to hold it closed, so I turned to my snaps!

After I was done making the card, I put a pair of the snaps on the left side of the card to hold that down. But then the middle part (scalloped section) was coming up..so I put one on there. So I wanted to put one on there…however, I didn’t want to have a metal silver thing in the middle of the inside of the card. Well…It WORKED through the 2 layers of the “inside paper”! There IS a snap behind the scalloped piece and then behind the chocolate and rust paper!

And here’s a pic of the snaps that are holding the left side down!

Anyway, these are my new favorite friends! They are so cute and they are just FUN!
