We are closing in on the last few weeks before Halloween! I hope you have been enjoying the Halloween projects that I have been sharing! Today's project is sticky note holder with a mini pen using all of the Halloween stamp sets in the 2018 Holiday Catalog.
These sticky note holders would be great for coworkers, community members, teachers, family, friends, and you!
I found the mini pens at my local craft store. I was on my way to the check out with an embroidery hoop and saw these Halloween-themed mini pens close to the register. I couldn't resist!
I coordinated each pen with a Stampin' Up! color. This lime green skull pen coordinated with Lemon Lime Twist perfectly! Then I layered more coordinating colors and stamps to go with each different pen pattern.
The way the "Happy Halloween" greeting is highlighted with Pumpkin Pie ink on the bat sticky note holder was a complete and happy accident! I stamped Pumpkin Pie ink onto the Smoky Slate clouds and realized the Pumpkin Pie was too light to see clearly. So, I tried to cover the greeting in Momento Tuxedo ink and missed by a smidgen. Sometimes my best ideas are not planned!
Surprisingly, this is the first time I used the cauldron image from Cauldron Bubble. I have been enamored with the cauldron printed on the Toil and Trouble Designer Series Paper and sadly over looked this stamp. I will be sure to use this frightful cauldron more often. The coloring possibilities are limitless!
This kitty is still my favorite new Halloween stamp! Too cute for words!
I made a little video to show you how to fold the sticky note holder base. This is my second video. Please be kind and patient with me as I improve on my video-making skills. Enjoy!
Start with a 7-1/2" by 3-1/2" piece of cardstock. With the 7-1/2" side along the top of the Simply Scored Board, score at 3-1/8", at 3-1/2", and at 3-7/8".
Fold the the sticky note holder base in "half" at the 3-1/2" score line.
Cut about 3/4" of so from the top edge and only between the score lines, as shown in the template graphic above. Then repeat for the bottom edge. Pull the tab outwards like you are sticking out your tongue. These cuts will make the pocket for your mini pen.
Put Tear & Tape Adhesive on the scored areas that are marked with an X in the above template graphic. Remove the adhesive backing and adhere the two tabs to the right in the wider rectangular section.
Adhere the sticky note pad on the wider rectangular section with strong glue or Tear and Tape Adhesive. Close the holder. Insert the mini pen. Decorate as desired.
You can find the measurements and a supply list at the end of this post.
Thanks for stopping by!
