Scrapbook paper with patterns?

There are so many beautiful patterns on this site that would make incredible scrapbook paper. I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a site that could make 12 x 12 sheets of scrapbook paper.

Hi celineebeenie, when you say 'make' do you mean print 12x12 sheets or design 12x12 sheets?

an idea i would like to share just take a print out of any pattern u like n use it for covering notebooks, diaries or further take dat print n develop on a tshirt..its funnn :)

MadaDesign

I have heard great things about Pure Print Design. They charge $2.25 a page though (min of 5 pages) but they full bleed which is nice.

I have also heard decent things about Scrapbooks to Share .

If you create an overall 12x12 sheet of a pattern at 300dpi, you should be able to print it out to 12x12 on a printer that can handle that size paper. 300dpi for print; 200dpi for screen only.

Just Perfect Color

If you do not want to invest in a larger format printer, any vendor with large output graphics capability should be able to print on a variety of opaque and translucent paper and other materials for you (even someplace generic like Kinko's).

Most charge by the square inch or the length of the paper (or whatever material) you use off a roll of paper stock at whatever width they have. You will probably find you can print wider than 12" and trim several sheets out of your run---either with an X-Acto knife, trimmer or with their power cutters if you need a stack of paper.

300dpi is pretty standard but be sure and find out what file formats their systems can read and will work best and reproduce the sharpest. It shouldn't be an issue but their may be a maximum file size too. Have fun. It is not especially expensive compared to what you are probably accustomed to paying for scrapbook paper anyhow? Shop around. Large output printing is very competitive these days.

My sincerest apologies for not posting this in the proper place but the "bugs" thread is not letting me post.

For some reason a whole heap of stuff doesn't seem to be working properly. Noone's palettes/patterns are showing up on their profiles, just the bio and recent comments, I can't edit anything and none of the drop down menus are working.

Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me?

I just love this. The peachy colours look so calming and serene and then there's the grey and the turquoise which gives off a 50's feel (which I just love on its own). It's a perfect colour palette for this summer.

Contrary to the cliché, not all artists are solitary creatures. With Tagtool Touch, collaborative creation is the name of the game - it's easy to hook up several iPads over Wifi to paint in the same projection.

Tagtool Touch is ingenious entertainment for visual people. It's an educational activity that helps break down social barriers. Above all, it's a serious artistic instrument, for inspired and authentic visuals.
