I had so much fun making the magnetic embellishment for this card. There is always some leftover magnetic sheet when I cut them for my dies, and I hate not using them. I have made magnets with them before, and I decided it was time to put them on a card.
The magnetic sheets I use are actually vent covers that you can find at your local home improvement stores. They work well for keeping your dies together. And for making magnetic embellishments!
When you cut the bee out, make sure you have the white side up, and for the hive, the magnetic side up. This way the magnets will be back to back so they stick together.
I usually run them through my die cut machine a couple times to ensure that they cut through. You may need to take scissors or a craft knife to some of the area if it didn’t cut all the way through. I haven’t had too many problems though. Just be careful when removing them from the sheet. Especially around delicate areas like the bee’s antenna. They can rip easily.
Here is a video I made showing how to make the bee and hive.

I cut the bee and hive out of the Golden Honey Specialty Paper that is one of the free products you can get with a purchase during Sale-A-Bration. Just put a little tombow glue on the paper and glue them on and you have your magnetic embellishment to go on your card.
