LTPP September 2025 Favorite Brand of Paper

Hello friends, time to get those pretty papers you have been hoarding and join
our Love Those Pretty Papers challenge.
Our OPTIONAL theme is  Your Favorite brand of paper and WHY!
However, we are an anything goes challenge as long
as you use your pretty papers.

That's a hard one for me as I have lots and lots of brands that I
dearly love but I went with one that I have adored for years and that 
is MINTAY, (why?) it is a gorgeous paper from Poland with page
after page of beauty in the best quality.  I used to have everyone
they ever came out with but slowed down buying it this last year.
I also love P13 also a paper from Poland and Paper Rose has gorgeous papers
and I could go on and on, I used to be a sewer and paper has always
reminded me of pretty fabric, hence my buying so much of it.
My card is Mintay Lavender Farm, you can tell by the name  how gorgeous it must be.
I let the paper do all the work and added a Spellbinders sentiment and a few
Sue Wilson butterflies and pearls.

For my anything goes card I used a cute and never been
used before Craft Consortium Bluebells & Buttercups (2021)to
create a child's card.  I also have the stamps that go with this
paper and of course haven't used yet either.  The image is part of 
the paper pack.

This challenge is great as it challenges you to use
all those pretty papers if like me you have been hoarding
for years! 

Entering the following challenges:
The Crafters Cafe .... Designer Paper
Crafty Animals .... ATG

I'm with you and Darlene on the Mintay paper, but I had to slow down, too, because there's also 49 & Market, Brutus Monroe, Paper Rose, P13, Stamperia, Craft Consortium, on and on and on. My paper pads are about to run me out of my stamp room, but I can't stop collecting. Yup, I was the same way with fabric when I sewed. Your two cards are amazing examples of why I love this stuff so much! Such a darling image on your second card. I'm smitten!
