As I said, these are acrylic frames with the stamped designs in place of a photo and a post-it type notepad attached to the front. They're incredibly quick and easy to make.

For this one used Hero Arts sentiment stamps and a Posh pansy stamp. I used markers, direct to rubber, for the pansy, gave it a light spritz and stamped the image. There are also some Autumn Leaves Rhonna Farrer flowers stamped in the background in Versamark.

This holder has the cyclist by Stampington, a Vap stamp "fun in the sun" sentiment, and the "remember" is by Ma Vinci.
To give you a better idea of how the frame works to support the post-it pad, here's a view from the side....

Put the stamped cardstock in upside down, or opposite of the way you'd normally insert a photo, and then lay the frame down on its back. It's best to keep the design fairly simple. The frame can only accommodate so many layers of thickness. I also found out that even eyelets that have been set fairly flat will not fit, no matter what you do. If you noticed that I managed to use a couple of big ones near the 'remember', that's because the acrylic backing ends before it gets to that point--there's about an inch of leeway.
This is a fun and easy project and you just may have most of the supplies that you need already. :-)
Oh wow these are so neat. I am definitely going to be having a go at one of those.
