One of the first things I learned to make as a stamper, and a project I did at my first workshop as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator was this Easy to Make Note Holder For Your Purse Or Desk!  These are easy and fun to make, and you can customize them any way you like!

The base is Melon Mambo cut 3 1/4″ x 7 1/4″.  Score at 3 3/8″ and 3 7/8″.  This will allow for the thickness of the “sticky notes” you will put inside. That’s all there is to it, really!  I decorated all of these with 3″ x 3″ squares of the Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper. It’s on sale today and tomorrow in the Buy 3 Get 1 Free DSP Sale!

To decorate each note holder, I stamped and/or punched a daisy with the Daisy Delight Stamp Set and the Daisy Punch. I think it is best to adhere the daisies flat onto the front so they don’t get stuck as easily on something in your purse, if that is where you are going to put it.  If it is on your desk, you could pop them up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  For a little pizzazz, I added a Clear Faceted Gem in the center of the daisy.

Just adhere a pad of notes to the back of the inside of the holder.

Another option would be to make a belly band to go around the note holder and stick the daisy on top of that.  You could also have a matching pen if you were giving these as a gift!

Grab some pieces of cardstock and scraps of designer paper and make some of these easy note holders for your purse or desk and give some to a friend!
