Default Searching for a warm burgundy cardstock

I am looking for advice on SU cardstock. I need a nice warm burgundy for my daughters wedding next month. There doesn't seem to be a current burgundy available by SU. I have seen listings for retired burgundies but without a picture or reference hard to tell true color. It can't be a purl
Ple burg or a red burg. Any suggestions would be appreciated . Thanks

Can you find an example online of the burgundy you're looking for? That might help… there are so many shades and tones!

I have looked and I saw a retired color baroque burgundy but can't tell if it's a true warm burgundy in picture.

Hope someone out there knows! If you have time, maybe get samples from paper companies like this one, as well – then you will know for sure.

Burgundy is so hot right now in fashion and home decor you should be able to find paper, too. Check Paper Source and Kelly Paper if you can't find any locally.

Is Cherry Cobbler "burgundy" enough? It's a really pretty color, but may not be as dark as you'd like...

I'm not sure if PTI'S Scarlet Jewel would work for you. It's a gorgeous deep burgundy color. SU'S Cherry Cobbler came immediately to mind because it's one of my all-time favorite colors, but it may have too much red.

These are the only 2 I'm familiar with. Hope you find something that's just perfect for you!

I just checked Paper Source and they have a color called Rhubarb that is close to burgundy. Half price through tomorrow!
