Watercolour Background Papers # 1 - Instant Digital Download, Printable, Digital Kit for Junk Journals, Scrapbooking, Happiness in Crafting

Gi says: “For Journal Pages I use 160gsm paper, for Embellishments I use 160gsm paper but if I want the embellishments to be thicker I will back them with card stock.”
Being based in Europe, the paper weight is measured in GSM (grams per square meter). Normal copy paper is usually 80gsm.

Gi also tea or coffee stains paper for use in her journals and for this she will always use 120gsm or above as 80gsm can tear easily or fall apart during the process, though 80gsm is ok for tea/coffee staining as it does tend to thicken up, but only if the paper is of good quality.

At the end of the day it is all matter of choice so use what you feel most comfortable with and gets you the best results, so do not be afraid to use a bit of trial and error

Firstly, all of the Happiness in Crafting digital kits are designed in A4 format and are best printed on A4 paper. For crafters in the countries that do not commonly use A4 paper it is often advised to reduce the paper size to around 95% and/or use the “shrink to fit” setting, ensuring “borderless printing" is set to OFF can also be of help.

If you are unable to use PayPal it may be because you have items from other shops in your cart. A possible solution for this is to remove the items and move them to the saved for later section of your cart. If you then only purchase from the individual shop it should resolve the issue and the PayPal payment option should be available.
