Step 1: Cut a strip of white cardstock 3 ¼ x 8 inches. Score at the ½”, 1”, 4 ¼”, and 4 ¾” marks.
Step 2: Fold along scored lines. Use a bone folder to create strong creases.
Step 3: Trim a rectangle of white cardstock to 3” x 2 ¾”. Stamp the snowflake stamp in a light blue chalk ink.
Step 4: Stamp the larger tree with VersaMark ink, heat emboss with neon green embossing powder. Stamp the smaller trees in neon pink. Mount on a black cardstock mat.
Step 5: Adhere ribbon strips to the narrow panels on the holder. Adhere the black matted panel to the front of the holder.
Step 6: Heat emboss three wood veneer stars yellow. Adhere to the tops of the trees. Create a ribbon bow and attach to the top of the holder. Adhere post-it note inside holder.
