Post It Note Pad Holder

Do you have tools that kind of hit the wayside and you hardly use them, if at all? I have to sometimes make myself think of stamp sets, dies, punches, and other tools that I have that are neglected for long periods of time. Such was the case with my Simple Flower embosslit, so I pulled it out and gave it some love last week :-). 

A local store had the new pink Bind-it-all version 2 on sale for half price and it came with some extras- like chipboard covers. I've been wanting the pink one since it came out, but since I already had the blue one, I really couldn't justify the purchase. So glad it was on sale! Uh huh, yes I did get one :-). I used it on my post it note holder below....

I inked the edges of the So Saffron Simple Flower die cut with Peach Parfait. The two colors really work well together. My covers are just two coasters that I covered with Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper from the Level One Hostess sets.  

I used another Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper for the inside of my covers. The coasters both started out as black ones, but now they are nice and pretty :-). I plan to keep this little note holder in my purse for those quick notes that I sometimes need to write. This is a pretty quick and easy project and you could make a bunch of them in very little time. Have a great day!

Blessings!

That is just lovely. It's a keeper, even after the paper is gone!

Very Cute - you sound like me. I had the blue BIA also then had to have the pink one, which I have not even used yet.
