Stationary Holder/Organizer


This great little stationary holder kicks off our VIRTUAL WORKSHOP. I think you will agree this will make such a fabulous gift for ANYone. Check out post # to see how this holder works great as a Christmas Organizer, the perfect place to jot down a note or handle all those store reciepts.

I plan to give THIS holder to my nephew. He is always so thoughtful with notes and thank yous. I made it a bit more on the masculine side for him. This would be a great gift for any dad!

To order a kit with this project in it simply email me and ask for the CARD HOLDER KIT. Your kit will include all supplies needed (other than adhesive) to create FIVE holders (cards, envelopes and pens not included.) Everything will be precut and prescored in your kit. Use the stamp set Happiness is a Journey, as I did or choose one of your own. These CARD HOLDER KITS are only $15. You can purchase the CARD KIT which includes five cards with envelopes for only $5. I used the mini RSVP ink pens. The regular sized pens work just as well.

Check back in an hour or so for the next VIRTUAL WORKSHOP project.
