Boy was I a doofers last night???? another one I posted in the wrong place, we do learn from our mistakes don't we?????....

so this is a repost, My daughter found this material in a bargain bin at the craft store near her, and thought it was an appropriate scrap for me , as we have a Caravan Park business, I had enough to make a note book cover and also a glasses case , I got the idea from Carolyn`s tutorial for the glasses case, I borrowed 8 inches of tape from my husbands metal tape ( I put the rest back hehehe) and as Carolyn said in her tutorial used that as a snap, thanks Carolyn for the inspiration , they were very easy to make.

Your daughter had lots of luck finding that material and you really made the best out of it. Now if the next project of your husband has 8 inches missing, it is all your fault.

LOL, I bought him a new tape and wrapped it up with ribbon , he was puzzled why I gave another tape when he already had one, I told him his old one was broke, he went outside and looked, oooops, caught out, he tells his mates nothing is safe, but hes ok with it, he got a new tape out of it and I got the other one to make more snap pouches, thanks for looking.

You have done a great job and the material is just perfect! When he starts to do a project and needs a tape measure, just hand him your new glasses cover and tell him that he will need this. LOL

thanks for your comments, I always try to do things right but sometimes I get caught up in the moment and make a mistake. But I slapped my wrists for not thinking at the time, and corrected it, once again thanks for commenting.Trish

Often the effort of posting takes ones concentration and your just glad that the process works. Then one of us pesky moderators appears and says its the wrong place... I just love the digital print that you used for your work. Now to put the thinking hat on to decide what to do with the last snippet
