Black Ink Creative International Papers
Embossed ellipses in a modified quadrafoil pattern are the focal point of this paper, handmade from the Lokta bush in Nepal. The paper is bathed in a non-toxic Azo dye, then hand embossed with a patterned template and dried naturally in the sun with the template still in place. The brighter the sun, the darker the exposed areas of the embossing, melding the two techniques of solar “sun washing” and embossing into one gorgeous paper. Acid Free, this paper lends itself to bookarts, decor/design, paper crafts and more.

Brightly colored strands of natural kozo fibers in hues of lime green and olive green are melded with a sheer mulberry base, creating a unique appeal. Both sides of this paper can be used to create different effects. One side is more textured with the strands appearing finer, while the other side is more smooth with larger “chunks” of color. While the kozo strands provide strength to this tissue based paper, it can still be torn to produce beautiful feathery edges, making it a perfect choice for collage and mixed media art accents.
