This week I decided to make something practical for myself. I made several of these magnetic post-it holders for gifts last christmas but didn't get around to making one for myself. When I saw Lindsay's Stamp Stuff had this sweet cherry stamp I knew it would be perfect for a fridge post-it holder for our kitchen.
I found the idea at SCS and they are super easy to make so I will
give a brief description.
WHAT YOU NEED
Chipboard coaster
Magnetic clip
Paper and stamps to decorate
Post it notes
I layered some decorative papers together and attached it to my chipboard coaster.
Next, I used the SU scalloped circle punch as the base, layered more paper and attached my cherries. The whole thing was glued to the metal clip with my E-6000 glue. I would recommend a good craft glue because of the metal and the fact that you will be handling this part often so you will want a good solid attachment.
I didn't glue the metal clip onto the back of the chipboardbut you may want to do it so it doesn't fall off when you remove a piece of notepaper.
Here it is without the note pad. These make great gifts, everyone (teachers, riding instructors, etc.,) loved them.

This is not only cute but practical! I 'm always running around trying to find something to write on especially when the phone rings It's not as if I have never stratigically placed note pads by the telephones. That darn "note pad fairie" just keeps reclaiming them! ;o) Tracy
What an adorable idea! I need to make one of these for my new house (in my spare time! LOL!) LOVE how just a few simple supplies can turn into something so cute-but I know that is because you are SUPER talented, too! Great project!
So genius! I love it! Now, I don't think I would need a post it holder, but I would use just the cherry stamp on a clip I love having decorative clips on my fridge to hang paper and such! Well done!
