    No photos on me but I used HP ColorChoice Inkjet paper (100gsm) for writing journals and Fabiano Artistico for the watercolour sketchbooks.

    The HP Premium paper is better at 110gsm, but that was the best I could get (still fountain pen friendly though).
    Have you thought about going full on & making the paper?

          I'm getting into bookbinding and cricut does great pseudo foil decals.

          sorted just get a BabeShack (sounds cooler than my log cabin AKA 'The Manshack')

            I'm with NLUK I reckon you would do really well. If all else fails you might get some ideas from it. I liked the embossing press and 3D moulds as that might be something I could do.

              You've got a Cricut in your house ? C'mon man.....you're a bloke......you're from Yorkshire........get it in't bin and get a laser cutter in there instead.
