Default Background Paper

I was just wondering where everyone buys their background paper at. I like Stampin Up, but would like some other patterns, colors and such. And Michael's doesn't have a very good selection. I want to get some with different designs and colors. Any info ya'll can give would be appreciated very much.

Thanks!!!

Lately when I've needed or wanted a different patterned paper, I've been buying the different Stacks that JoAnn's carries with my 40% off coupons. The Summer Stack has some really cute prints .

I bought a beautiful stack at Target, can't remember how much itwas. Sometimes I buy specialty paper online at CreativeXpress, Two Peas, Paper Wishes.

If you sit tight 'til tomorrow, The Stacks at Jo-Anne's are on sale for 50% off. It's a great price for some cool patterned paper.

I just make it in what ever colors and stamp design fit the project. I can't wast time any more infront of the patern paper at stores wondering if what I get will work. If your in the Boston area there is a great store Inkabout it in Westford, MA and they have Hot stuff I might get a paper or two to bring home in play with.

Over here on our Create and Craft channel we can get cds that hold 250-500 different designs of backing paper that you can print up on your printer whenever you need them. I have a floral, Christmas, baby, men's and general cd. Here's the link http://www.createandcraft.com/csp/isd/craft/index2.csp
Click on red button on left, books, videos, cds and then click on Chris's cds. My favorite is the polka dot and plaid cd.

I find scrapbooking stores are the best for background papers. Lots of choices and it's usually good quality stuff.

Default Background Paper

Sometime if you go to your Rubber stamp stores they will ton's of it.
I also find it at Hobby Lobby or Michaels, Wal-mart, Target,

You maybe be able to find it at A. C. Moores.

Have you tried wallpaper samples? I don't do it often, because I forget about the book, but Lowe's, HD, Sherwin Williams, etc. often have wallpaper sample books that are out of style and they are full of great background papers.
