Hiya

Not sure if anyone knows much about paper but I've seen something I really want to buy H2B as a present to use as a photo album but it's advertised as a guest book.

The pages are 110 gsm... would that be strong enough to put photos on?

I would think that was quite light paper. I recently bought 200gsm card off the bay, and it was thinner than I'd imagined it would be. Normally printer paper is about 80gsm, so it would be slightly thicker than that.

Thanks Angela. Might not be strong enough then.

I only really want this guestbook/photo album for the front cover as they laser cut the shape of countries and tell a love story... like ours would be the UK and Australia cut out as that's where we're from and they put something like "some things are meant to be" with your names and wedding date.

It's a 2 hole ring binder though and I've just looked on the bay and I can buy my own strong card refills to put in it so I'll do that instead!

That sounds lovely. The ring binder means you can add to it over the years, so it's an ongoing love story!

110 is literally that - paper. If you want something, I know a company who could help, but he only supplies to professional wedding photographers.

but, 110gsm is nowhere near man enough to take the inks involved to produce a photo. standard H P phot paper is 280gsm. and craft card is 300 gsm. The company i posted on your wall is dear. but the products are sumptuos and tactile.

Ooh thanks Clive, I'll have a look.

I really like the covers on these though, they're really different. And I don't mind replacing the paper inside. Put the link on your wall so you can see what I mean :)
