Question In Search of Perfect Paper!

Hey, ladies! I'm moving into a new house this weekend and I've decided to do the master bath in chocolate chip, vanilla, and a color similar to really rust. I have a spa tub and I want to make some altered letters to sit on a shelf above...

Does anyone know of a great line of paper that has chocolate chip, vanilla, and really rust in it? I don't want very much of the really rust... I'm not too crazy about my Stampin Up options, so I'm hoping that someone knows of another brand!

Thanks in advance!!!

I would have said Outlaw DP...the hint of sage would be a nice accent too.

But alas...that's SU. :(

October Afternoon's Weathervane has some nice DP with those colors in it. You can find it HERE. This is some of the nicest quality DP I have ever used, and Stop & Scrap has wonderful service. Hope this helps!

Ohh...I knew the colors sounded familiar...I picked through my stash and found the Cosmo Cricket Gretel stuff...there are a couple with those colors in it....if you like vintage-y stuff. They have some sage in them too...

I love Cosmo Cricket...super solid weight and double sided!

What are the reasons you don't want to use Stampin' Up! products? I ask, because the color names you gave (except vanilla) are Stampin' Up! ones, so it would seem that you like those colors.

Good luck to you in your quest!

Yeah, and by vanilla I actually meant the color very vanilla... It wasn't that I don't want to use them, but just that the paper lines out right now with those colors I'm not crazy about... And there aren't many with just those colors... I'm starting to think about just changing the colors though! LOL! They just seem hard to find together....

Just remembered some really pretty paper from last year -- SU Fall Flowers. The colors in this catalog have really changed from a year ago, haven't they?
