OK, first off, the stamp mount guide is not complete. That will be finished one day. The reason why I did not finish it is because I cheaped out and used a Hawid Glue Pen and the mounts I had on hand to cut mounts for a lot of the miniature sheets.
Also, as mentioned in the previous post, I have made “inksaver” pages. These pages contain NO stamp images.
And the obligatory scree shot:

Hi, Andriju! First of all, I wanted to thank you for these pages. I was going to make them myself and was postponing doing them (something else ALWAYS gets in the way!), and so your pages all ready to print out and use are a God-send! I have a few questions, though: What kind of paper do you use? White? Cream? 24-lb, 32-lb, 65-lb, Cardstock? Do you make pageholes on the actual page or do you put them in sheet protectors? That’s about it, I guess… Shcheraz, shchyro diakuyu!
I printed out my pages on white and cream paper, and I think it looks better on white paper, with the Ukrainian flag and map on the top. So I went with white. I originally started out with 32 lb. 100% Cotton bond paper from Southworth, but I wanted something thicker, so I switched to 67 lb. cover stock from Staples.
This is the paper I am using: http://www.staples.com/Staples-Cover-Stock-Paper-8-1-2-inch-x-11-inch-White/product_490882
I punch holes directly on the pages and just put them in a binder. I also use a corner rounder: (http://www.amazon.com/UCHIDA-CRC-Uchida-Corner-Rounded/dp/B000S15YX4/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1399402350&sr=8-9&keywords=corner+rounder) to round the corner of the pages.
Do we know each other? Your name is very familiar.
I visited Staples for lunch…. I like the cover stock too. Will also get the cutter for the rounded corners. Thanks for that info!
I don’t think we know each other, although I spent a good many years registering kids for Plast Camp at Vovcha Tropa and your name is also familiar. My friend Lada has a close friend Oksana Pastuszak – are you related?
If Oksana Pastuszak is married to Danylo Pastuszak, she is my sister-in-law.
Spent a lot of summers at Vovcha Tropa. The only part of my Ukrainian childhood I loved was Plast.
Bingo! You are the brother of a friend’s friend’s husband! Couldn’t get any closer than that! :)))
Practically family in some circles. 🙂
