You could maybe stick on some skeleton leaves which would give them a bit of texture? https://e-crafts.co.uk/craftsupplies6.htm

?Tessa!

Skeleton leaves are a great idea! I was thinking perhaps using some backing card, attaching the magnets (some how[:I]) and maybe I could use a skelleton leave to jazz up the card??

Does that make sense??

Yay you liked the idea! You make perfect sense but whether I do is a different matter.

hmm ... never done this but ...

what if you cut a hole in the backing card for the magnet to sit in (like a photo frame) and could you sticky back plastic the back of it so that that it held the magnet level with the card?

You'd have to check that the magnet would still be magnetic after.

You could try diamantes (self adhesive), butterflies, jewel dots, flowers, flower sequins, hearts and other wedding embellishments to add that "little bit extra" - have a look at

for some interesting ideas. I think the flower embellishments:

will go well with the garden party theme.

All the best,

You could attach the magnet to a backing card with small pictures of teacups and teapots with a mini wood peg and a small green gingham bow on it.

You could 'simply' design your own peice of paper by finding photos of tea cups and tea pots and pasting them onto a powerpoint slide then print it off and spraymount it onto card then cut out the peices individually with a craft knife. A bit fiddly but could look lovely.

PS - If anyone has any more ideas or even pics of what they have created I would really appreciate the help!!

I tell you what, if you like I will quickly 'knock up' a A4 design for you to use? How's that? Do you have Powerpoint or even Publisher to open the file?

Thanks Ruth - Are you sure?? It would be powerpoint that I would use!

I hoped you might say that as I thought I would start anyway, have nearly finished, have done it in greens, blue and white so it should go with the magnet. What's your email? Or send email from here, will be ready in a bit.
