My project for today was to make an easel-type card that holds both a calendar and a 3 x 3 pack of sticky notes. These make great gifts for teachers or coworkers, friends or relatives. They are really easy to make and using the new “Fully Flowering Mix & Match Ephemera Pack” from StampinUp!, there wasn’t even any stamping involved. The hint of color on the calendar background is actually white cardstock and was tinted using Fresh Freesia ink and a blending brush! So, choose your favorite designer series paper, the coordinating cardstock, grab your favorite adhesive and you’re all ready to create these cute calendar easels!
The Fully Flowering Ephemera Pack is a fairly new offering by StampinUp! The image below shows the pages that come with the product and you get 2 of each page. The images are perforated for removal and there is a list on the back of the coordinating colors. In the case of my project, there were no Fresh Freesia images included, so I used one of the black and white images and colored with my Stampin’ Write Markers to match my project. You could also stamp an image and cut it out, but I wanted something quick and easy today without much cleanup, that the Fully Flowering Ephemera Pack was just the ticket!
I only had standard yellow sticky notes on hand for this example, but look online or at your local office supply store and you’ll find that there are several companies that make these notes in all different colors to coordinate with any color scheme you want to use.
