My friend, Jo, gave these post-it note holders to our Stamp Club for Christmas. I just love mine! It's so handy to have in my purse, plus it's just really cute! The covers are made from coasters and covered with Stampin' Up! designer paper.
Right away, I knew I wanted to make some for gifts for a couple of friends and ladies that I serve with at church. So first off, I needed to by a Zutter Bind-It-All. I live 25 minutes from the closest craft stores, so I don't get to them very often. Jo gave me this tablet on a Saturday. The following Monday, I printed 40% off coupons and dragged my mom to Hobby Lobby.
As it so happened, Jo and I had scheduled a stamping play-date for the next day, Tuesday. Without me asking, she brought her Zutter and some coasters for me to play with. She just knew ...
Here are a few that I made, using retired designer papers: Delicate Dots, Cutie Pie and Raspberry Fizz.
I also decorated matching pens to match the post-it note holders. I've seen them several places and they are easy to make. I bought Pentel pens and screwed off the bottom piece which also removed the ink cartridge. I cut a piece of paper apprx 3-1/4" x 7/8". I ran it over my bone folder to break it down to roll more smoothly. I rolled it, inserted it in the pen barrel and reinserted the ink.



To make the post-it holders, watch {
