For wrapping/decorating favors.... Do any of you know where I can get like an ivory wrapping paper? I want to wrap the favors in an ivory wrapping paper and then tie a simple bow over it with the green ribbon. I didnt see plain ivory wrapping paper in cvs- anyone know of a place that would sell something like that?

Check Target! They have a pretty good selection. I'm going there today after the gym, so Ill let you know.

I found some nice ones on this sight:
