Hi Kalie! I took a look on the UK Amazon site and found a chipboard that I purchase through Amazon here in Canada. It's "Grafix 12 x 12-inch Medium Weight Chipboard Sheets, Pack of 25, Black". I don't know if the price is good for you but I find it to be great quality. Personally, I prefer the black but it will be covered by patterned paper so that shouldn't be an issue. Also, if you are creating smaller albums/folios you could get away with using more standard sized chipboard which may be cheaper or easier to find. 

Thanks Tania, and I'm sorry I missed this message. I'm still working my way around the app. I used a Cocoa Vanilla line called "No Limits". I also added a few bits of another similar Cocoa Vanilla line called "Legendary". They are very complementary for mini book use. 

Wow this is awesome! Great job with all the bright colours and patterns. Kinda makes me crave a popsicle 😋

Some of my fave projects have been Frances’ gatefolds. This is going to be fun!

Thanks so much Shayne. I love this paper and own a ton of it. 😂

Definitely black but Kraft is my favourite. I find that most of the patterned paper I use is more suited to a black album base.

Thank you so much Christine!

Thanks so much Frances! I like to stack my books with a lot of photos so I tend to go a little “flap crazy”.

Francės Long Ooooo that would be great! I usually spend a few hours on Pinterest trying to get my ideas on paper but it takes a lot of iterations.

Help yourself Veronica. I also stress over the cover designs every single time. I won’t tell you how long that one took me 🤣.
