Solid Colored paper that is not cardstock.

Topic Closed

Does it exist? I would like some solid colored paper that is not heavy like cardstock and can not seem to find any. I would like it to be the thickness of PP. Where can I find some?

Thanks,

My Mind's Eye puts lighter weight PP in their kits, like the ones at Hobby Lobby....those have solids on the back that are nice to use.

I know Making Memories has some lightweight card stock....it's on the back side of some of their pp. Check at M's or J's for the double sided paper. I know some of the paper has solid colors.

Depending on what weight and colors you want, you might be able to find what you are looking for at an office supply store. There are all sorts of regular solid color "copy papers" available -- pastels, brights... double-check to make sure is acid-free if you are concerned about that.

A lot of doubled-side papers have solid on one side and a pattern on the other.

my lss has a million colors.. ok not that many but enough to keep me happy, its the consistency of typing paper, and i love it, especially when i dont want a thick LO. You can check around, i have bought some at Walmart and Target, in the computer paper section. Oh and you can also get color paper at, any office supply store

A lot of patterned paper s come with solid colored backs, these days. Though if you're looking for a specific color, that could be painful to look through.
