Scent of Papers

Been wondering what is it that gets us on the hook? I love papers and it is soooo bad we here in England are spoiled with choices and prices are fan-tas-tic. Where else you could get 54 sheet 12x12 Laura Ashley pad for £2.50? Gorgeous design and here it is.


Or

I copied pictures from some auction site, but never mind.

There is a problem thou. Papers are so beautiful, I barely use them, just because I might run out of sheets. :( Can't bare the idea.

Oh no, these are NOT from any auction, but a wonderful local shop. I couldn't find proper pics from anywhere else that quickly.

Frame is Go Kreate
Roses are white, coloured by spray of water soluable marker.
Swirly leaf is Marianne.
Glitter is from Deco Art Extra Fine.
Glossy is Sepia from Inkessentials
