Beautiful You post-it note holders

Yesterday I shared the card that I sent out to all the people who came shopping with me last month and by now they should all have received their packets which also included this post-it note holder which I decorated using the Beautiful You stamp set. It has some lovely sentiments.

This also uses the retired Fancy Frost DSP. I don’t usually share retired products, but I didn’t think it through! At the time that I made these, the DSP wasn’t retired! So I measured my post-it notes (including the depth) adding an 1/8 inch to make it easier to open and scored appropriately. If I remember correctly they are 3 inch squares so the first score line was at 3 1/8 inch and then it’s 3 inch from the opposite edge. I then used sponge daubers to bring out the pattern using elegant eggplant or bermuda bay. The cover is only glued on the back but I found that the easiest way to get them lined up was to put the edge of the post-it notes with the glue into the middle portion, get that lined up and only then push down the cardstock with the fast fuse on it. The decoration uses Beautiful You onto cardstock the same colour as the ink heat embossed in gold and then cut out with the stitched shapes framelits dies. A double bow of (now retired also) twine attached with a rolled up glue dot finished them off perfectly. And here’s the reason behind my colour choices.
