I have liked the work of Virginia Graham for a long time. I first spotted her work in Leeds in The Craft Centre and Design Gallery just below The Headrow Art Gallery. The craft centre is full of wonderful gems but I instantly loved Virginia Graham's quirky pieces. Virginia uses a combination of slip casting and hand building techniques and their surface decoration includes slip painting, enamel transfer printing and metallic lustre’s.

Below are a few images of my work. I experimented with ceramics during my final year of my degree and really loved it. I did a Textiles degree so I incorporated embroidery with it. Maybe one day I will have the time to take it up again...

Above we have the Nightshade 2013 Diary, Fancy Elephant 2013 Diary, Feather Love 2013 Diary, Starlet 2013 Diary, Owl Dreamer 2013 Diary and Lucky Feather 2013 Diary. All the diaries feature four vibrant cover designs with gold foil accents. The diary inside can slide out so it is easy to take everywhere with you. Also there is a six pocket accordion storage folder.

We are going scrapbooking mad here at The Paper Parlour! Whether it's a scrapbook, memory book, scrap book album or photograph album we are finding that if it isn't stuck down it soon will be. We have just got some brilliant scrapbooks in this week in two different sizes and in an array of colours. The MT Tape and Cavallini Paper Tape are great for sticking polaroids/photographs, maps and tickets down in Cavallini stamps and Papaya Art glitter stickers decorate around the edges and space in between.

We have been featured in The Sun on Sunday Magazine in a piece brilliantly titled 'Get Your Geek On!'. They showcased different pieces of lovely stationery and storage items and our Cavallini Alphabet Stamps have been given the thumbs up!

We have some glittery gift bags from Papaya Art in for you to package gifts in style.

We have finally had delivery of new items from Papaya Art! Please keep checking back in with us as we are expecting more items over the next few weeks. We have numerous spiral notebooks, postcard sets, celebratory banners and art panel prints galore.
