Do you all use Staples Photo Paper for your CD images ??. I do not have a store near me and would have to do mail order, so I just wondered if any of you had
an equivilent that I could try. Hugs Rita xx

I've used Tesco value photopaper, it's cheap and quite good. Not terribly thick but that doesn't matter for Joanna's CDs

I've recently received a couple of cards made using the Tesco Value Photo Paper A4 170gsm. The quality and colour of the images is superb, and when I can
find a Tesco I shall be buying some.

Stationery Box also do it - do you have one near? I tend to get most of my supplies from the computing fairs.

I use Aldi's photo paper, had great results both for printing and getting different effects with misting and stamping with H2Os.

Thanks Girls and boys too. I see most of you use Tesco ,I have been using Tesco matte finish one since last year , maybe I should try the glossy one as well. I
just wondered if it was worth trying anything different. All the Stationary box shops in scotland closed up in May, they were so good for lots of crafty
things.

Yeap i`m with the Tesco Value one - they have started doing a pack of 50 sheets for £4.60 ish - which is a great price - but I love the quality of the paper /
card as it doesn`t chip when you cut it
Hope you fine what you need Suzanne |

I got some from the place Paul Church recommended ages ago - brilliant value - and have just got some of the canvas effect stuff from them too. - I think it
might be on the websites and links section of the forum

I've got a box from Costco which is very good. The canvas effect stuff sounds really nice must try and find it.
