It’s a company in Cardif Jenny, top quality work - Cadremont, just Google it, any problems come back to me. I buy both the mounts and backboards to fit, generally the one size that suits my sketches, the outer dimensions are compatible with off-the-shelf frames, so potential buyers of my mounted work can buy a frame from Dunelm or wherever, or obviously get one made at the framers. They do make frames also, so a one-stop-shop. I put the finished artwork in the bevelled mount and backboard, and then into a cellophane sleeve to keep everything clean and professional looking. I think they also sell the sleeves if I’m not mistaken!

Back to Paul's original post, I found a bunch of ancient small drawings that were just floating about in a drawer, and pasted them into a notebook I picked up in a charity shop (paper not good enough for much). Great idea Paul , it can now sit alongside my sketchbooks.  Example:

Nice to see that the old sketch’s have a new life,  it’s something I shall continue to do when the current pad is full and you don’t need to spend a lot on the pads to hold them .
