I can’t get enough of the Peaceful Poppies Designer Paper. And I knew I had to use it along with the sentiment “just a note” from the fantastic Music From the Heart Stamp Set to create a fun holder for a notepad. So I looked to see what was already out there to gain some good tips from others, worked through the math to make a tall one that would show off the beautiful paper, and created this vertical easel-style sticky note pad & pen holder which I shared on Wednesday during my Facebook Live Online Paper Crafting Class.
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the version of this project that I demonstrated.

Oh fun! Yes…get started now. LOL Hugs to you Amy. Thank you!

Thank you Ginger! Hugs to you.
You ALWAYS do the best 3-D projects Rachel!! I’m going to have to give this a try. Thank you so much for all your hard work and inspiration you provide to the rest of us!
You’re so good to me Tonya. Thank YOU! ?
Just found you Rachel, I love this standing note pad holder.
This makes sense to put on a desk. Takes nearly no space.
I will definitely be making this.
Thank you for this great project.
(The paper with the poppies is beautiful.
Glad you like it Julie! Thanks so much for leaving me a sweet comment. Have fun making your own.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Rachel. I’m hoping we can make some of these at the local Senior Center. I love your creativity.
Thanks so much Betty! Have fun recreating these. And hugs to you!!
I love these and your video make it all so easy to follow along to make. Thank you. I just finished my first one and hoping to make a few more today.
Oh fun! Glad you enjoyed this project idea AND made one!! Yay!
Great tutorial, thank you. That paper is so beautiful, my favorite.
I agree on the paper! The colors and images are stunning. Thanks so much Jill!
I have to say, “I LOVE THIS PROJECT!” This is AWESOME! But, I do have a question? If we wanted to add a panel of Whisper White CS o the back of holder for a written message, what size would you suggest we use? I don’t want to use a full size panel for this, I don’t want to take away from the front. I wi;ll be making a bunch of these for gifts. Thank you so much for these AWESOME projects you share with us! I’m forever grateful. I’m really bad with numbers, so was wondering if you might have the measurements for a regular size notepad? I am sobad, I try to figure these thing out and just end up making a mess. But, I love this project. You’re the best!
Hi Gloria. The notepads are those 3M Post Its that measure 3″ x 3″ x about 1/2″. If you were going to put a small panel on the back, I’d recommend a 3-1/2″ x 2″ piece. I’m so glad you love this! Thanks Gloria!!
Found your blog from Pinterest. Made 22 of these over the past couple nights. Left off the ribbon and sentiment and kept them plain but I hope everyone likes them. I forgot to take a picture before I went back to work after closing to sneak them into my coworkers mailboxes. What a great project!!
WOW!! 22?! Oh, I’m so glad you enjoyed this idea Nancy. Thank you. ?
this is so cute lots of ideas coming to me thanks for sharing
Yay! Thanks Marie!
