Hi, My project today is the Grocery List Notepad. I love making them & I'll share a little secret with ya, I signed my first recruit years ago, after she made one of these at a Make n Take.
I used the Good Friends stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog with Kiwi Kiss and Chocolate Chip. Club girls….this is one of your July projects. I'll need to tweak it so it uses available product (I'm sad to see Kiwi Kiss retiring).
I have a photo tutorial that I made a few years ago & I'll be filming the video tutorial this week. Click here if you'd like to see the photo tutorial I made in August 2007.
I need to run to Office Depot and pick up some notepads and run to Kinkos and have them cut. (Don't try the ones from Walmart, once you cut them the adhesive doesn't hold & all the sheets fall out).
Thanks for stopping by!
p.s. Don't forget about my special that I'm running from now until June 30th. Click here for the details. Once you've placed your order, please send me an email with you choice.

I’ve been wanted to make some of these! Thanks for the directions…
Hi Angie…could you please tell those of us that don’t have an Office Max or Kinkos in our area if you have ever bought the notepads at Staples? I’d like to try making some…but I don’t want to use the ones from Wal-Mart…cause you say they will fall apart….These are so neat…LOVE ’em…Thanks Angie for all your inspirational ideas…
Patricia,
I’m not Angie, but I do buy mine at Staples and they will cut them in half for you. I’m in Canada, so they charge $1/cut up here.
Angie, these are just SO cute!!! I love the little jar too!
If you have one near you, Staples cuts them for you, saves a trip.
These are still just as cute as they can be. And the one you showed back in 2007 with the Priceless butterfly is still *priceless* LOL.
Angie,
I enjoy your site very much! Thanks for your hard work!
I bought my legal pads at Office Depot and had them cut the pads in 1/3s (once the nice gal even cut them for free because I bought the pads there and she wasn’t too busy. Other times it was a dollar a cut). The middle one wasn’t glued together so I just got a “mega” stapler w/ the 3/4″ (estimate) staples and stapled the pages on the top. The top of the grocery list pad covers the staple so it doesn’t show.
Does the place that you buy the pads not have a cutter? I try to simplify my life and get everything done at the same place whenever possible.

Hi Angie, I would like to know if yo can sell the note pads cut?
Angie, this might be a stupid question, but what size legal pads do you buy are they 81/2 x 11?
