Beautiful Bunch Post-It Note Holder

Completed Post-It Notepad Holder
This wonderful creation holds a 3" x 3" sized Post-It note.  For this post-it note holder, I used the Confetti Celebration DSP to add lots of color.  The flowers were created by stamping on Window Sheets with Memento ink (alcohol based ink used with Blendabilities) then coloring the back of the window sheets with Blendabilities.  I punched the flowers out using the Fun Flower punch and heated the flower/window sheet on a Silicone Craft Mat with the Heat Tool.  Tip: It is best to keep the Heat Tool approximately 1-2" from the flower and aim at the outside of the flower petals.  They will begin to curl up and shrink a bit.  Do not overheat the window sheets or they will melt!
I put together the post-it note holder using Basic Gray card stock and some Fast Fuse to keep the Post-It notepad in place.  I added Whisper White Organza Ribbon to keep the Post-It notepad closed when not in use.  Then I added some Bermuda Bay card stock and a DSP layer on the top using Stampin' Dimensionals.  Finally, I added the window sheet flowers using glue dots and added a Vintage Faceted Designer Button colored with a Blendabilities marker.  It was a fun and easy project that I will be duplicating for some quick holiday gifts for a local craft fair this year.
