I'm Lesley and I've been a crafter all my life. I discovered paper crafting about 30 years ago and this is now my great passion.

In my craft room, I am having a big destash by using up some of the papers I’ve been so frugal with. Then I can legitimately buy lots more in the DSP event – right?

Don’t shout at me but we will soon be hearing “Christmas in July” etc.  I’m not quite ready for that but I am ready to make little gifts, thank you presents, teacher appreciation gifts and just small Happy Mail and RAK for my friends and neighbours.

I found several small notepads in my stash that I’ve had since I used to run a local craft fayre and so I’ve cased my own makes using SU papers.

In the video, I explain how to calculate dimensions to make a cover for any size paper pad. 

Here are the three I showed in the video but please check the size of your pads before you start and leave a little extra room in the spine for the extra thickness of card in the pockets.



1. small jotter with black card and  Zoo Crew DSP

  • cut card 7 1/2" x 5 3/4" or 5 1/2 US ( 14.5 x 19 cms)
  • score long side at 3 1/2, 4 (9,10 cms)
  • turn score short side 4 1/8 (10.5cms)
2. A6 tablet covered with Starry Sky card and Fancy Flora DSP
  • cut card 9 x 8 1/4 (US 8 1/2) (22.7cms x A4 width )
  • score long side 4 3/8, 4 5/8 ( 11, 11.7cms)
  • turn and score short side 6 1/8" ( 15.5cms)
3. Shopping list pads covered in Garden Green card and Fresh as a Daisy DSP

  •  cut card 6 1/4 x A4 or US letter (15.5 cms x A4)
  • score short side at 3, 3 1.4 (7.5, 8cms)
  • turn and score short side at 81/2" (21.5cms)
See the video on YT to show you how I made them . Please like and subscribe to me on socials.








If you would like to purchase any products from SU and don't already have a demo, I would love you to place an order with me. If you are interested in becoming a demo yourself, even for a trial time, you can contact me via messenger or email -lkilby3591@gmail.com. 

I would love to know if you try this simple method of making a covered notepad and how successful you are/ have been at busting your stash of DSP.


Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to use that DSP!

See you soon,

Lesley xx
