INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE POST IT NOTE/ PEN GIFTS
To make these follow these simple easy instructions.... and have fun... decorate for any special occasion or celebration when you want a small token or hostess gift.

Using store bought post it or sticky notes.... measure and cut 2 sheets of paper to fit the front, end panel and back of the post it notes. (just slightly bigger to allow for the curve and corners of the cardboard)
Then cut a front panel, back panel the size of post it notes... using medium to heavy cardboard.
For the end size the small piece and cut a cardboard... but cut it slightly smaller .. you will be leaving a spacer between the sides of end panel.... see photo below.


Above is a photo of the cardboards as they will be glued to both sides of the 2 papers. (If you cut a slight bit larger you can always cut the ends after gluing and getting the correct size.)

When gluing the 2nd paper to cardboard be sure to add extra glue in the valley fold space between and using your scoring tool to push the papers firmly between the folds.

The extra space allows for your base to fold easier.
Attach the back of the post it notes onto full back of the cover.
**** to attach the pens on a ribbon tie the end of ribbon to the pen  ***** leave extra length of ribbon for the pen to reach around and write to bottom of post it note. Glue the other end of pen ribbon onto the end panel of the base... glue full end panel and glue to end of base. Hold firmly until it sets. 
Now tie another ribbon around the base and pen and tie a bow.


These 2 are decorated for Valentines Day.... but like I mentioned.. you can decorate for any occasion.























    Thanks for stopping by... hope to see you again soon ... but in the mean time be sure to stop by the STORE where these items and so many others are available. Also take note of all the products that aren't carried in our regular local stores. ... AND the service is A1.

    Super fun Post it Note Gifts


    Hi.... it's Bev here today. This DT project for The Rubber Buggy showcases some fun Post It Notes Gifts. They can be used for any fun occasion and are so easy to make. Go go to your local dollar store and buy some post it notes and pens with a side clip. These were decorated for love and Valentines Day but could be for Easter, an Anniversary, Birthdays and even at Christmas. Just change up the  themes you decorate with. 
    So grab your paper scraps, some twine and ribbon, and sticker accents.

    Supply List:
    Papers: from your stash that mix and match
    Glue: Beacon 3-in-1 Glue,  double sided tape
    Accents: stickers etc from your stash
    Machine/ tools:  EK success cutter bee scissorsFiskar Paper Trummer, 
    Other: Cardstock, twine, ribbon

    I am using a thicker piece of cardboard (actually off my Shutterfly envolope) as a more solid base.
    I measured the width of the post it notes and est the length for front back and width of the edge. 


    Using 2 face tape very close to edges and glue through the centre I add print paper to the base cardboard.


    I glued the back of post it notes and the spine to the base after I tied twine to the pen and left a long enough piece to feed through the spine section of the base.... attaching it means you never have to look for a pen when you want to write a note.


    With everything glued together now just paper and trim the back with print paper and paper and accent the front to what ever theme you want. It's super easy and they make a fun little token gift. 

    This one is actuall a small box with loose post it size notes in it... so I just added a themed tag with twine and added a tied ribbon to hold it closed.
