Yep i'm loving working with this at the moment it's so nice to put other colours with instead of the usual black or matting layers it's so nice to use especially with the next product below! I actually get my kraft in A4 size from a local craft shop but you can get it here in 12x12.

VersaMagic Dew Drop - Jumbo Java from Tsukineko

VersaMagic dew drops are currently an in thing with my i love the effect the chalks give papers and card stock and it's so nice around the edges of images I reccomend Jumbo Java which is a brown for use with Kraft Card.

For those who regually follow my blog and know me you'll know i'm obsessed with 6x6 paper! At this very moment in time i am lovin' the six by six My Minds Eye collections i especially love this one called ''Dwell'', those little cute tele's remind me of willy wonka! lol strange i know but it's kinda retro but soft pale colours! 

Simple Stories - Summer Fresh - 6x6 Paper Pad

I was super excited about the last CHA release from simple stories there papers are lush! totally scrapability and awesome! that i nearly fell over trying to purchase the 6x6 version, there so cool, and they have mini journal cards and bingo cards in the stack too totally rocking! This is my current favourite pad ''summer fresh'' i'm so hoping they bring out the girly pink one in 6x6 too! 

Enough of the paper! lol i could talk for years literally there's so many favs of mine when it comes to paper!

My Memo Notebooks! Well when i first saw these i thought 'smash*' written all over it and if you see there vid on youtube you'll agree it's such a rip off of the k&co vid it's untrue! but.... i swallowed my issues with that and went ahead and ordered both the blue and pink (if you wish to see inside follow my youtube link at the top of my blog).
I love the idea of these books and there just basically a different kind of smash* book just a different companys version! still not sure what i'm going to do with mine as yet but hey!!!

*NEW* MY MeMo Sticky Notes - Musician

My Memo also do a fav range of sticky notes and journal spots along with funky washi tapes too i had the music ones me being me of course i love my music!
