Sticky Notepad and Pen Holder

 I have made two more little gifts to enter the River of Creativity Gift challenge this month.

I found this tutorial and decided to have a go at a Sticky Notepad and Pen Holder.

Oddments of paper/ribbon/postage stamps  are from stash,pen stamp set is from The Artistic Stamper-Daises and Bee die-cuts are from Hero Arts and coloured with promarkers.Grandaughter was very impressed and giving me instructions to make one for her involving spells/moon or crystals not sure till she decides lol.

Dee's Craft Room said...

These look fabulous Carol, the daisy and bee die cuts really pop and the postage stamp decorations are an inspired idea.

They would make great 'his and hers' stocking fillers.

Gosh, how pretty it would be to have this sitting on a desk (thinking of the daisies, especially). I have made a lot of post it note holders in my day, ha! One of these days I'll need to make another magnetic note pad for the fridge. Always got a shopping list in progress.
