How To Test

I've made some Frog Prince / Swan Princess name and picture magnets for the nursery class I teach on Sundays. Having been inspired by other How-To'ers, I'm trying it out.
Here is what I did:
I started with templates I drew up. A frog, A swan, A crown, A circle, A rectangle.

Using the frog, I place the template and trace it.


Then cut it out.

Measure out contact paper and position the frog and crown on half.

Then fold contact paper over the other half and trim the edges.

Cut out the rectangle and circle (I juse a straight cutter and circle punch for them).
Lay down some packing tape, sticky side up.
place the rectangles on the tape and write the child's name.

Fold the tape up over the rectangles and trim excess tape off.
Repeat for the child's picture. Then Rubber Cement the name and picture to the animal.

Then hot glue a magnet to the back of the picture.
ANd ta-da you're done.
