Christmas Note Pad Cover

Hello! Happy Friday! 

In case you missed it, the Year End Closeout SALE is on now!! Everything is while supplies last, so if you see something you love on sale, get it while you can!

I've got a fun project to share with you today! I think this would be a great teacher or hostess gift idea you can make- you could even have the kids help you decorate! This note pad holder/cover uses the Cookie Cutter Christmas gingerbread people and the sentiment from the Jar of Cheer stamp set.

How To Make It: 

Cut a sheet of Real Red Cardstock 10” x 8 1/8”, score at 4 1/8”, 4 1/2”, 8 1/2”, 8 7/8”. Round all corners using the Project Life Corner Punch. (You may need to change the dimensions depending on the note pad you are using)

Randomly stamp on the Real Red sheet with the candy, candy cane and star stamps from the Candy Cane Christmas stamp set using Real Red ink.

Cut a strip of Whisper White cardstock to 10” x 1 3/4” and score at 4 1/8”, 4 1/2”, 8 1/2”, 8 7/8”. 

Adhere three rows of Candy Cane Lane Designer Washi Tape on the Whisper White strip. Adhere to the Real Red sheet, matching up the score lines, using Snail Adhesive.

Stamp the Gingerbread boy and girl- using the same gingerbread stamp from the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set on Whisper White cardstock, using Crumb Cake ink. Punch them both out using the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch.

Stamp two bows with the bow from the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set in Real Red ink on Whisper White cardstock and punch out using the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch.  

Stamp the greeting in Real Red ink on Whisper White cardstock. Punch it out using the Decorative Label punch.

Punch out a Real Red cardstock circle with the 1 3/4” circle punch, and adhere it to the front of the holder, over the washi tape, with two Stampin' Dimensionals.

Using a partial Stampin' Dimensional, attach the bows on the gingerbread boy and girl. Adhere the gingerbread boy and girl, and the sentiment to the notepad cover with Stampin' Dimensionals. The gingerbread boy goes over the Real Red cardstock circle.

Attach the notepad to the inside with Mini Glue Dots.

Close the cover with a velcro dot adhered under the Real Red cardstock circle.
