Post-it note holder





Making this post it note holder is just TOO easy! When I first saw this, I thought it might make a good class--that is, until I got the materials together and it only took about 5 minutes to finish! So cute but so simple!
1. Buy at acrylic picture frame. Mine is 4 x 6". I bought it at Wal-Mart for $1 each.
2. Cut a piece of double sided designer paper to 4 x 6" and insert it in the back. On one of these I used paper from the Raspberry Tart collection and the other one was done with paper from the Tea Party collection by Stampin' Up! of course.
3. Use a good double sided tape like SU!s Sanil. Put 2 to 4 strips on the back of the post it ot pad and then place the pad on the front of the acrylic frame.
4. Stamp and mount an image that you like. I used a 2 step daisy stamp from the Wonderful Watercolors stamp set.
5. For the pen be sure you buy Pentel RSVP pens. Others don't work as well. Cut a matching piece of designer paper to 1 x 3 1/4". Roll it around a pencil or other object. Take the black top and ink cartridge off the pen. Place the rolled paper inside the clear chamber. Insert the ink cartridge and attach it back to the pen.
6. Use a piece of hook and loop tape about 1/4" wide. Place 1 piece on the side of the pen and the other piece on the frame. Now your pen will stay put unless your hubby puts it in his pocket. :-)

These make nice teacher gifts or can be put beside your telephone for taking notes.
