Calendar Easel Cards

I love to create some form of calendar cards each year. This year I created a couple of differently decorated versions of Calendar Easel Post-It Note Cards:

These are all really quite easy to make. I ordered the calendars from Vippies and used just a half a stack of Post-It Notes so that they wouldn’t be too thick. They fit in a standard-size envelope for mailing.

I used the Flowers for Every Season 6×6 Designer Series Paper for these Calendar Easel Post-It Note Cards. I have the measurements and instructions so that you can make these too at the bottom of this post!

Instructions:

• Card Base: 4 1/4″ x 11″, score on 11″ side at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″
• Fold scores inward to create mountain fold, burnish
• Layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″
• Cardstock Layers: Cut 2 pieces @ 4″ x 5 1/4″
• DSP Layers: Cut 2 pieces @ 3 3/4″ x 5″
• CS Calendar mat: 2 3/4″ x 3 3/4″
• Adhere DSP to solid large cardstock mats for your panels
• Adhere one panel to the inside of card
• Adhere Post-It Note pad to that panel with Tear & Tape. This forms your stop for the top easel section
• Adhere the remaining panel to the piece of Cardstock cut at 4″ x 5 1/4″
• Lay the card down in the closed position with scored side up
• Put Tear and Tape only on the bottom scored part
• Adhere the Cardstock/DSP panel to that. Now you’ve formed your easel
• Adhere the mini calendar with Tear and Tape to the small cardstock mat
• Adhere that to the card front with Tear and Tape
• Add embellishments to finish card
