One of my favourite things to do when I'm stressed is pull out my stamps and mini origami papers and make cards.  The origami papers are bought in Stockholm and some of the stamps I found in a market in Hanoi.  So much more fun than buying cards in a gift shop!

Work in progress! I really like the colours, it makes me happy!

A little bit of DIY! Paper bags instead of envelopes and cute as a button orange red stickers!

I have a thing for beautiful paper and collect all kinds of origami paper.  I found these in a cute little shop in Berlin a couple of years ago, but can't remember the name of the shop.  Wish I could go back and buy some more though!

Cute, cute paper flowers for sale during the Flower festival - I regret not buying them!

I love these colorful little baskets made from recycled Thai advertising leaflets and newspaper!  Found them in Bangkok at a Thai Craft sale a couple of years back and still have them standing in my bookshelf.

I have a soft spot for paper of almost any kind, especially Japanese origami paper which I hoarde in an old biscuit tin.  Sometimes when I'm feeling creative I start folding cranes and flowers and random sea creatures, but some of these papers are so beautiful that I think I'm going to frame them instead :)
