Post-It Easel

Hello everyone, hope you have all had a lovely Sunday. It has been nice and sunny here again. Today I took my son, Connor, and daughter, Sophie, to our local ski centre to go tobogganing as it will be Connor's 10th birthday tomorrow. They had a lovely time but unfortunately did not get chance to go on the Sno-Tubes as it was closed to individuals and only open for parties. Afterwards we went for a lovely dinner at the Harvester and then had a cuppa with some great friends. Connor is now tucked up in bed waiting eagerly for his birthday to arrive!!!! lol
Well today's creation is something slightly different again. It is an easel card with a post-it holder. This one is quite small but I have adapted the pattern to the size of a 15cm square card and am in the process of completing this, so once done will post here.
I used backing papers from Dovecraft, white card which I embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots, flowers from my stash (the darker ones were coloured with Promarkers to blend in), brads and Stickles around the edges. I also edged the box in the backing paper. The size of the Post-Its is 3"x3" so that might give you an idea on the overall finished size. 
A side view. When it lays flat over the Post-Its there is a 1cm spine so that it lays flat and isn't pulled out of shape.
I hope you like this, please leave any comments.
Please visit again soon, bye for now x
