It's that time of year when I make my teachers back to school Post It Note holder.
Playing along in the Rose blossom Garden made this project easier and some
what more fun. The color scheme for this back to school project is 
Red(Ruby), Blue(Pacifica)Green(Olive), and Yellow(Honey).

1. Photo mat 1 on the  "Z" key cut at 5 inches 
2. Cut White Daisy according to directions on Take Note stamp set
3. Cut a green apple and red apple on the "X" key 1 1/2 inches. 
Cut leaf off red apple and attach to to green apple.
4. Cut "Think grow learn" on the "X" key 1 1/4 inch.
5. Embellish with "note" stamped and some washi wonder.
Directions for inside: Using "real dial size" cut the following parts
