I have a growing collection of different colored 8.5x11 text and cardstock paper which I'll buy at regular price, not just discount. You can use the newsprint for wrapping smaller gifts up after stamping, and lining flimsy magazine envelopes.Dihtrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11750367268985036095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-65303237234800227.post-14192680374140830542011-04-22T23:32:49.944-04:002011-04-22T23:32:49.944-04:00These purchases are an accumulation over the winte...These purchases are an accumulation over the winter. I was there today and didn't buy any stationery items or really much of anything.

NOw for the stamp paper- send me an addy and I can make the "living at your house" happen. They still have 10+ at the discount store as of today.TheSnailMailerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808923391778978800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-65303237234800227.post-10431054033177048212011-04-22T15:53:41.485-04:002011-04-22T15:53:41.485-04:00First, the stamp-themed paper needs to come live a...First, the stamp-themed paper needs to come live at my house. Woot! Love that design.<br /><br />The pink paper would be good as a backer/boarder if you are pasting an otherwise plain, colorless something to a card. I use that color as a backer for photos I want to highlight on scrapbook pages. It's also good to use with punches to create embellishments for letters, envelopes or SB pages. Think lots and lots of pink hearts. It's also great for **READ THIS!!!** notices on bulletin boards.<br /><br />If that manila is cardstock weight, you have the raw material for 1,000 holiday greeting cards. Print a 1/4 page graphic (for the front) twice on each sheet, print the greeting twice on the other side (for the inside), cut in half, fold. If it isn't cardstock, you have a boatload of nice creamy printer paper!<br /><br />The newsprint gives me pause because I would question the archival quality. Will it turn crispy and yellow within the year??? Scribble pads for kiddies or jotters for grocery lists.Speckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374976843193713274noreply@blogger.com
