love this beautiful floral paper ... its next on my list to play with |
and the thrill of it can be in the hunt ... like when i walk into a thrift store and find vintage sheet music, or a text in french .... maybe something in an asian text ... all exotic looking ...
sheet music and french dictionaries ... what could be better |
I love wrapping paper, tissue paper, newspaper, lined paper, graph paper, old air mail paper, crepe paper ... just about anything i can get my hands on ... it's just all so beautiful ...

Peace, love & paper!

Pretty! And they may not be the stars, but those sock monkeys are adorable.
Jo, thanks for sharing this! I am so on the same page as you (lol) - I love to scout out paper supplies! It is just so much fun! I love you pattern paper flower - just gorgeous!!
Ah, my dear creative Friend, another beautiful post showcasing your gift.
Thank you for the lovely post.
Jo, when I saw the title Paper I guessed it would be you. You are the paper queen.
Hi Jo, Just wanted to say I love paper too. I found 3 Baptist Hymnals in a thrift store and they gave them to me. I have been making paper roses out of some of my favorite hymns. I love old letters, post cards and Bibles too. I can't believe people donate family Bibles to thrift stores. The family history in some are pretty lengthy. I like scrapping too. Just don't have a lot of time for it.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks for the nice comment.~Ames
My hero has just retired from school. He loves great fountain pens. I only have one,, but I need just the right right and texture of paper to write him a note with it! And now I need to think of a way of using some of those old hymnals in Prince Charming's boot before they're driven from church clear-out to book depositary place! Much to think on here!
I Love paper too ,dosent it just hurt to use some of it at times? I just want to run my hands all over it and keep it forever! LOL
Love the tissue rose!
love paper too...
awesome take.
awards 4 u, Happy Friday!
Happy Weekend.
I agree with you that paper is perfect. They have so many beautiful kinds. The monkeys are cute too. Joni
I'm with you on this one. I adore paper! What is it? I don't know.
I love paper, too. The other day a friend gave us a bottle of wine, which was fine. But, what was even finer was the beautiful linen-like bag and green crepe paper that it came in. I told him the next time he could just give us a bag like that one. :-)
You are the paper queen! love the post and your photos :)
Your paper examples are all so gorgeous -- I may be stealing the pattern paper rose idea! Love that. When my remodel is at a place whee I can leave it alone, we need to get together and go on a paper safari!

Paper is wonderful! I confess, as much as I like blogging, there's nothing like settling down with a real paper book. The feel is part of the experience.
Jo, I'm with you! I love paper, too. You, however, seem to know exactly what to do with it to make wonderful art.
Thanks for the sweet comment on my post. I have no idea just where my mind is going to take me next. Every day is a surprise!
I love paper also. You are so talented!
Oh, I love paper, too! (mostly I make cards) It's hard to resist at the scrapbook stores (Why SHOULD one, though?!) And I look through books at thrift stores to find interesting pages.
pretty flower!
loooove your stacks of paper and your vintage finds :D
Oh Jo! What a delightful stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday's letter 'P'.
I am enchanted by that pattern tissue flower. It reminds me of a beautiful poppy. I may have to give that a try.
Thanks for sharing this loveliness with us.
And thank you for linking.
A+
