Hi Stephen. I have the book, and I have been folding some forms, but I dont find a paper that looks beautiful as yours, your work look amazing, beautiful folding.
Ill like to know, which kind of paper are you using?

Thank you.

Adriana,

Thank you! Hope you're enjoying the book and the folding.

The paper I use is simply colored copy paper. In the U.S. you can find it at any Walmart and usually Target or any office supply store (like Office Max or Office Depot). Here's an example of one of my favorite color packs:

The globes that have paper that is poka-dot or checkered are craft paper (often used for scrapbooking and can be found with scrapbook supplies).

Any of the other papers that have any pattern to them are origami paper.

I hope this helps. Please don't hesitate with any other questions! :-D

Thanks again.
