Program Paper Help!

Sooooo I'm searching high and low to find burgundy metallic card stock to make my programs!

lcipaper.com has a whole bunch of colors, but not burgundy Should I use a more neutral color instead with Burgundy text, or maybe a neutral color with a burgundy ribbon?

obvi i want everything to be JUST as i envision it, but the other side of me says 'NO ONE WILL NOTICE OR CARE!'

thoughts? help?!

Have you tried paperpresentation.com (they also have a store in the city, but less of a selection in store). That's where I got my paper from and I know they have a TON of colors.

Anyone else know any other paper sites that are worth investigating??

What color ink are you going to use?
I wanted to do a dark purple paper and then realized that black ink would not show up, so I decided to go with a metallic lavender paper from LCI.

Why don't you do a pretty pearled metallic paper and do the font in burgundy??? It will probably easier to see
I got my donation cards printed at staples on really nice pearled paper and it came out to 14 bucks!

I second that! They have gorgeous metallic paper...I am using Clover and Peony for my programs. Such good quality!

Thanks ladies!

ITA Susan & MissB - I'm thinking of maybe doing a champagne or pearl colored paper with black writing and a burgundy ribbon or something.

I'm definitely going to check out paper presentation - I went to the website and they clearly have a TON of stuff, but I'd like to see it in person, so I can feel out exactly what I want!
