Thank you Kate. Love the suggestions and the clear information on how to make your own collage papers. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!

I love some of your ideas for painting the papers. You showed a piece of white paper with an irregular circle pattern that I really like. Do you have any idea where you got that one? Thank you

[@KateBedellArtist]

I made that one. It’s just marks on brown craft paper. I will show you that one in the next video. Thanks for watching ❤

Hello from Deep South, USA I’m curious about the paper you referred to at the beginning of the video… I believe you said it came from ‘josher’ ? This term is unfamiliar to me … could you elaborate a wee bit☺️

[@KateBedellArtist]

Hi Leisha, I said Jotter, meaning a note book or school paper without any lines. It’s slightly thinner than computer paper. The reason why I like thin paper is because it lays flatter than thick paper which is nicer if you’re making a collage that is more delicate. 😊

May I ask where you got that stamp with the swirl and blocks?

[@KateBedellArtist]

That one is from Stewart Gill who make fabric paints, stencils and some stamps. The one on the wooden block is likely to be the American company Tim Holtz. I got them at least 15 years ago, so not sure if they’re still in stock. But they are bound to have more to choose from.
