Post it Notes!

I got this idea from my friend Chrissy, you can see hers on her blog. I love having my post it notes handy and also decorated cute for my purse or computer stand. These make cute quick gifts when needed.

These turn out so cute and are quick and easy to make. Think I will be making more of these.


Supplies Needed:


Post it Notes


Card stock cut to 8"x 3 3/4" then layered how you wish.


Scored at 3 3/4" x 4 1/4"


Ribbon cut to the size you can make a bow with that is easy workable for you.


I used the stamp set which is retired but still beautiful Script Heart. The heart in this stamp set is so pretty and elegant.


I colored my image in with blender pens and markers. The roses are really the same color as the card stock but it isn't showing that way. Did I ever mention I don't like my scanner?


On the Burgundy Card stock I used versamark and added a smaller heart that is in the set to add tone on tone to the base of the holder.


I added my ribbon by using small zots clear adhesive dots. They are really tiny and work well with narrow ribbon.


I scribbled marker colors of choice on a piece of acetate and took my blender pen, picked up color and colored in my images. This was stamped on Glossy White Card stock. Then when it was all colored in I trimmed around the heart with my scissors and added several pop dots to the back and centered in the middle of the post it holder.


Add your post it notes to the inside, tie the ribbon in a bow and your done.


How cute and useful is that!
