I am addicted to the 6 x 6 size of paper pads. I just found a beautiful DCWV one at Jo-Annes called Trade Winds. It was 40% off too which was awesome.
Just wondering what ones you have discovered that you think are beautiful too. Would love to hear about them.
DCWV has many paper pads I love! I really like the Once Upon a Time set, but having one little boy I can't see having much use for that one. I recently bought their Old World paper pack in either 8 x 8 or 6 x 6, can't remember which. I also like Taj Mahal, Vintage Collage, Mariposa, and their Holiday Collection!
Outside of DCWV I also like a lot of Echo Park stuff. They just released a cool Halloween set called Apothecary Emporium. Winter Emporium looks good, and so do the "coming soon" Christmas ones. I am in search of that "perfect" paper to decorate a Advent Calendar for this Christmas.
I can't seem to get enough of My Mind's Eye, Fancy Pants Designs, Basic Grey....the list goes on for me, but those are some of my favorites! Oh, and Jillibean Soup!!! Can't forget that one!

Where can you buy these at at good price? I never see them at J's or Mikes.
Scrapace.com is a deal a day website that frequently has the 6x6 paper pads. In fact today's deal is 4 Mind's Eye pads for 12.99 plus shipping which I think is $4.99. That's $18 for 4 pads. Great deal and I've ordered from them before with no problems.
I love all the Cosmos Cricket ones and recently discovered Stella Rose ..the latter have a lot of darling small flowers, calico type designs...both brands are available at Archivers. I know what you mean about being addicted to these small tablets..a lot easier to store and work with than the 12x12 size if you're a card maker.
Add all the cute Prima, Webster Pages and Graphic 45 to the above mentioned lines! I have over 70, 6x6 and 8x8 paper pads...
Karen, I will have to show my husband your post! He thinks I have too much paper and I am not even close to you!! LOL I have a long way to go still, but I am working on it!!
I am so glad another poster mentioned PaperTrey. I did not realize they have so many polka-dot pads. They are my weakness. Thank you!!
Basic Grey "Jovial". I bought a pad of this last year for the holidays and loved it so much I just ordered 2 more. So cute for Christmas cards and tags~!

I have purchased most of mine at Archivers. I can't say they are a bargain, usually around $6 each....but I tend to use every sheet, which is more than I can say for the large paper stacks I've purchased in the past!
Love My Minds Eye but if you saw my growing pile of paper Pads you would agree that it really doesn't matter, lol. I'm addicted to those things, any brand as long as I like the colours. I regularly check out the LLS for new ones and I'll order any that look nice when I place online orders.
I love the 6x6 papers but where I live its hard to get my hands on many of them. Ordering on line is great but the shipping on paper is so high. Anyone know an online source that has reasonable S&H?
I love the DCWV Mariposa. We don't seem to have it yet in Australia, but I have just bought a pack of 40 cards & envelopes of the Mariposa cardstock. I've been admiring the patterns all weekend...

Overstock.com has some 6X6 and 8X8 and their shipping is only 2.95 so I always look there first.
unfortunately a lot of these paper pads aen't widely available in the UK. Bo Bunny seems to breaking thru tho and they are lovely altho i haven't got my hands on them yet. am loving hte Prima paper pads, as well as the BGrey ones which seem to work together really well. MME are lovely too. I am also a lover of K&Co.
I am just so glad that more companies are making 8x8 and 6x6 paper pads! I have been making cards for about 10 years and my biggest gripe was having to buy a 12x12 and just being able to use a corner of it. Now those same papers are downsized and perfect for us cardmakers. Yay for us!
I love K&Company, Bo Bunny, and Prima to name a few. Whenever I want to get a look at a new paper line I usually go the The Frantic Stamper site. She seems to carry almost all of the paper lines, I just like that she shows all the papers in the pad on one page.

Thanks Debbie.....off to check out the Frantic Stamper!!
My absolute fav has always been K&Co but I just saw some lovely 6 x 6 pads made by Authentique. I especially liked the "Uncommon" (pinks) and "Wonder" (Holiday) lines.

I just bought three pads of Authentique -- Glowing (blacks and oranges -- but not necessarily Halloween), Journey (blues and greys), and Wonder (Christmas). All very pretty.

OMGosh! I'd never heard of The Frantic Stamper before, but it's DIVINE! So much fun all in one place :shock: I could spend HOURS there, drooling all over myself and my keyboard!
I also noticed that Amber (Sprtchick) now has her own online shop, too. It's in her siggy line, further up on this thread. She has some neat things and I wish her all the best!
Gotta get back to The Frantic Stamper.....so much for my firm resolve to stop buying patterned paper for the next 6-7 years! I recently moved and was forced to admit how much paper I already have. Like many of you, I could seriously open my own home LSS in paper alone. It must be sickness....

Oh yes, I frequently spend hours on there just making my wish list. Nice,clear, and decent sized images make a big difference to me when I'm ordering DP, not to mention most other craft stuff. Plus she she carries oodles of stuff.
