We have had a roll of Arches Velin 270gsm paper sitting in the corner of the studio for some time - therefore time to get it out and cut it up for projects. The roll is about 1.1m wide. The photo above shows a few strips cut off before cutting down to size.
A couple of photos below showing the beauty of the roll.
Some stacks developing.
Cut pieces under weight - the paper was quite curled from being in the rolled form for quite some time - see above. My count after a couple of cutting sessions was: 27 A4, 14 A5, about 150 postcards, about 250 business cards and 40 small book marks.
Not a lot of paper was wasted - edges including deckled edges as can be seen in the photo below.
There will be a few more cutting sessions yet - but imagine all that gorgeous paper carrying messages out into the world.
