Sticky Note Holder Tutorial

Sticky Note Holder With Pen

Supplies:
Cardstock (either 12 x 12 or 8 ½ x 11) I used CTMH Level 1 Scrapbook kit pattered cardstock.
Standard size hole punch
Circle punch 5/8 inch (mine is by Fiskars)
1 sticky note pad 3 x 3
Strong adhesive (I used Terrifically Tacky Tape)
Ribbon to match your cardstock
Pen
Embellishments

Directions:
Cut cardstock 8 ¼ by 3 ¼ inches
Score at 3 1/8, 3 ½, 6 5/8, 7

Create two holes for the ribbon.
One side is longer than the other. On the longer side measure in ¾ of an inch on center and using the regular hole punch make the first hole.
Next, on the short side with 5/8 circle punch measure in ¼ inch on center and punch the second hole.


Cut a 3 inch piece of ribbon for the pen loop.
NOTE: You may need to adjust the length of ribbon based on the pen you intend to use. My pen has a larger barrel with a grip surface that doesn’t slide easily. Test before you secure the ribbon with adhesive.
Fold Ribbon in half and insert loop through the smaller hole. Make sure the ends of the ribbon are on the back side.

Make sure the pen will fit through the loop. Then secure the ribbon with Terrifically Tacky Tape or other strong adhesive.

Next, attach the 3 x 3 note pad with more Terrifically Tacky Tape on the back of the note pad.

Make sure the ribbon is lining up so the pen can be inserted easily. Test it one more time. Make adjustment to the ribbon as necessary.
Now get out the embellishments and make it sparkle and shine.
