"100 Writing and Crafting Papers" is a collection of original, kawaii, patterned papers, hand-drawn by illustrators and designers. Contained within are one hundred sheets, two each of fifty different patterns printed on one of four different colored/textured paper stocks: smooth white, toothy cream-colored, recycled gray, and brown kraft. Our second such collection, this time the theme is Paris. All things paper are now hugely popular in Paris, just like in Japan. Not only illustrators and graphic designers, but also textile and interior designers, artists working in all sorts of fileds, are creating original papercraft products. And it is from the illustrations and patterns received from the studios of 12 trending French artists working with paper, that we formed this book. Bound so that they tear out easily, sheet by sheet, the papers can be used for letter-writing, or to make envelopes, standard and mini. Included are a number of templates, such as for an envelope just the right size for a sheet of letter paper folded in four and a message card and mini envelope with garland. Select a paper to match your mood or recipient, or display in a frame, the uses are yours to imagine! A book guaranteed to make writing notes and papercraft more fun.
