Hello again, today I’m back with a pretty shopping list. Grocery shopping can be a chore so to make it a little bit nicer how about a pretty shopping list!
I found a slim notepad that was ideal for a shopping list, it measures 8″ long. I cut a piece of cardstock and patterned paper the same width but 10″ long. I’ve used Webster’s Pages – Everyday Poetry collection.
Score and fold twice so that it wraps over the top of your slim notepad.
Adhere the paper to the cardstock using an Adhesive Sheet.
To ‘glam’ my shopping list I chose to add a line of Clearsnap Craft Foil in gold along the bottom edge – be sure to use E-Z Dots Repositionable® - it allows you to tweak the thin foil until it is exactly right without tearing it.
Flipping the notepad over, firmly stick the flap using Crafty Power Tape, I’ve also used some to attach a magnet. This will hold it very firmly.
I’ve decorated the front cover with more Webster’s Pages – Everyday Poetry and, as a cute final touch, added a small wooden bird. Using E-Z Squares® Permanent there is no chance of it flying away!
And here is the finished item, I think it will make shopping much prettier!
Happy crafting and just before I go here is a list of the products I have used:

Hi Christine, beautiful shopping list & what a great idea. Thanks for the tips on what glues to get. When I first started crafting I thought all adhesives were the same. Now I have a huge box of them, all brilliant for different things. And yes your post has inspired me to get glues I don’t have yet! It’s a good job quality glues store well.
Hi Christine,
Great idea and a fab tutorial
Best wishes

Such a pretty idea. You never know..it might inspire me to make a shopping list and stick to it. I usually drift round the supermarket and always forget something vital
Thank you for a great tutorial and a wonderful idea. I really appreciate your clear information regarding the adhesives.
