On this line you import your module and give it the name "notes".

         ^^^^^

Inside your function "notes" is a list.

                              ^^^^^

Since "notes" is a list inside the function, Python tries to find the 
method "int_to_note" for a list and fails. But I think you want to use 
the function which is defined in your module.

You have to either rename your module reference or your list.
