...the newest pack of inspiration for use in bringing to life some of those creative projects brewing in your mind.

All of these words will come packed in a protective reusable bag .
Please note: the bag size is approx 23cm high  by 15cm wide - I have included some text pages bigger than this( eg sheet music) , folded in half as I figure they will mostly be cut up anyway.

(mostly) old paper ....

(mostly) old paper...paper to get creative with.....

Here for your creative pleasure are packs brimful with (mostly) vintage paper.
In each pack you will find a mix of some ( depends what I find) of the following....
wallpaper, sheet music, pages of text, poems, greeting cards, trading & playing cards, matchbox covers, children's illustrations and text, maps,used stamps, postcards, atlas pages and other bits of ephemera.
For good measure I have included a few tags to play around with and a bit of my favourite white cotton string.

Because you always need string.

Each pack is completely one of a kind , not like the others, different to the rest, handpicked by yours truly. Good for postcards, collages, creative gift wrapping, journals, ATC's , altered books and anything else you can do with paper. (However, scrapbookers take note: I know nothing about the art of scrapbooking except for the importance of acid free stuff. I have no idea what is and isn't acid free so I leave it entirely up to you to decide whether or not its suitable.)

There are two sizes, small which has at least 30 pieces of paper bits& pieces and large which has at least 60 pieces.
