Post It Note Holder

The Creative Expressions Design Team have been sent this lovely stamp set, designed by Sam Poole, to work with this month.

I decided to make something other than a card for my DT piece this week, so I've made a Post It Note holder.

I made the holder to fit a 3" square Post It Note pad.
The covers were made with grey board and I covered them with paper that I'd coloured with evergreen bough, tumbled glass, worn lipstick and vintage photo Distress ink. I used the evergreen bough to stamp images over the covers. The bird house was stamped with Coffee Archival ink and coloured with felt tips, the tiny birds were stamped with black ink.


Here is a side view.
