Cut your base cardstock at 3 1/4" x 12"

With the 12" side along the top of the score board, score the 3 1/4" x 12" base cardstock at
3 7/8"
4 1/4"
6 1/4"
8 1/8"

Cut 2 pieces of your Designer Series Paper (DSP) at:

3 1/8" x 3 1/2"

On a piece of Whisper White Card Stock, stamp your Sentiment. (Note: Choice of cardstock can be altered depending on your color scheme).

Diecut and Layer your Sentiment: Using the circle Framelits (or your preferred Framelit) and the Big Shot; cut your framelits.

-Cut or punch your sentiment with the appropriate size die or punch
- Using the next size bigger punch or die, cut the layering piece in an accent color or DSP
- Optional: Using the next size bigger punch or die, cut the layering piece in Whisper White or color chosen at the beginning of this step.

**Choice of 2 or 3 layers is a personal choice

Making the Folds:

-Fold the 3 7/8" and the 4 1/4" scored lines forward. (Forward = towards your body). Use your bone folder to sharpen your folds

Fold backwards on the 6 1/4" score line and sharpen the fold with the bone folder.

- Fold the 8 1/8" score line backwards (Backwards = away from your body). Use the bone folder to sharpen your folds

Apply adhesive between the 6 1/4" and the 8 1/8" score lines

Assemble your project:

1. Using one piece of the 3 1/8" x 3 1/2" DSP , adhere it to the cardstock base

2. Add adhesive to the back of the post it note pad and adhere it to the same section. Position the post it note close to the bottom edge ensuring that you leave enough space for the easel fold.

3. Adhere the second piece of DSP to the "front" of the folded holder.

4. Assemble your sentiment (if you haven't done so already)

5. Position the layered sentiment to the "front" of the folded holder mid-way or higher. Remember, this is an easel fold card. Placing the sentiment too low could obscure it and also prevent the ease of the fold.

All done! I hope you enjoyed making the Post It Note Holder. They are very easy to make and are a fun gift for that busy, on-the-go person in your life.
