handmade paper? wow i hadn't thought of it..
I usually just use the heavy cardstock found in scrapbook isle.

do you make your own paper or buy it from somewhere?

make my own? I wish! No, actually, I buy a type made here, which is dyed in various colours. I just thought I could send you some samples, maybe card sized? so you could try it out, maybe use it for a card or two. I don't know, just an idea. :roll:
