need help with save the dates

i finsihed my stds. they are magnets. i want to affix them to paper. if i use rubber cement, will it ruin the paper when you peel the magnet off? is there something else i should use to keep it in place?

Go to staples, get magnets that are self stick. You peel off a paper and fix them to a business card.

You buy regular avery business cards, print out the std on them and then fix them to the magnets

don't use rubber cement....

fm me if you need more direction

i am not sure if i explained my self well. i already have the magnets printed and done. i printed them on magnetic paper and then cut them to size. what i need to do now is affix them to a brochure that i printed out so they wont move. i guess i can use double sided tape, but i know that will rip the paper when you peel the magnet off. maybe i will go to michaels and see what they say?

I think the rubber cement would be great, but maybe you should ask an expert!!!

Sorry for the confusion!

get this at Micheals

they will stick to the paper but peel off of the magnet....it kinda looks like a rubber cement ball

Look and see if they have the non-permenet ones!!

Good Luck!!

I use rubber cement to mount photos. It will not damage the paper. it can be easily peeled off and there should be no problem. I also used it to attach wallet size photos on the inside of my engagement announcement cards, it can be peeled off and does no damage to photo (in your case magnet) or paper. I do recommend using elmer's rubber cement over a cheaper brand though, it seems to work better.

i used double sided scotch tape and it worked fine. No ripping of paper or falling off or anything. No problems
