Economical source in Taunton [U.K.]

  'Fine Art + Framing', 12 Paul Street, Taunton, TA1 3PF [near the  Library] do a cracking bundle of very usable mount card off cuts for  Â£3.50 a bag, as well as stocking all sorts of sprays, paints etc.



Usual disclaimer, and very nice lady too!

Just received some mount board from an Ebay seller, it's 0.75mm 700gsm burgundy in colour, but if one is going to cover it in brick or stone paper who cares what colour it is? It's not as thick as Metcalfe preprinted brick and stone, but almost as stiff, should be ideal for use in the plotter cutter which I shall be checking out later.

They also do it in A3 and 12" x 12".
