Where is your go-to for purchasing "Natural" cardstock similar to SU!s product of many years ago? I'm looking for the flecked paper in large quantity at a reasonable price. Thanks!
seems to me that it is possible you may like the Neenah millstone or earthstone patterns. ( they are a little more flecks in the card but, not solid colored)
however that being said I think it only comes in say an 80# cover sheet.
this link goes to their card sorted into the neutrals section across all the finishes, so 6 pages worth to peek at. https://www.neenahpaper.com/paper?f=...urals%2fbrowns
Do you buy direct from this website? Love the quality of this paper! Bought some from JoAnns online but it was a bit speedy. Wondering if buying direct is cheaper?

Joann's is the only place I've seen the Neenah on sale. They will occasionally have a half price sale on the 80# and 100#., but not a sale on both at the same time.

I'm not sure what the paper you're referring to looks like, but Papertrey Ink has Rustic Cream cardstock, 110#, 50 sheets for $11.00. RUSTIC CREAM CARDSTOCK It is one of my favorites and I can't stand the thoughts of running out, which goes a long way in explaining why I have 6 packages stockpiled. It has lovely flecks in it.

OH Thank you!! This is the closest match I've seen! I do like the Astrobrights Stardust, but that has multicolored flecks. I'm excited to try this Rustic Cream! AC Moore used to have a wide array of flecked paper - I still have some of the mustard and cranberry, but haven't been able to source that either. Any ideas on the colored natural fiber paper? Thanks so much!

Thank you! I just looked at page 5, which shows the Royal Sundance fiber papers - kraft, balsa, birch, cottonwood, cream and driftwood. I chatted online to find out that you can order sample packs of 5 sheets each (19 x 12 1/2"samples) for $1.55/pack up to 10 sample packs. They have 80#. Thank you so much for the information. I never would have found this! Super exciting! Otherwise you have to order in packs of 250 sheets.

every time I buy a ream of white or cream ( I buy classic crest solar white smooth finish ) I pick up the samples. they are huge and they are really cool for using on fancy folds some times.
I also buy the dessert storm environmental ( this is similar to kraft) again in a smooth finish.
if you buy one that says linen, it looks like linen, if you buy eggshell it is also textured. etc

So I was going to order 10 sample packs at $1.55/pack but then the shipping cost more than the order! I took a chance and called my local Staples. They are happy to order me a ream (500 sheets) of any color, charging me only $35. Can't beat that! So- I'm gonna pick what I like best and order a ream. The samples alone plus shipping were going to be over $30.
I have 50 or so sheets labeled SU Natural White (not in package). I could send you a sample to verify the color if you are interested. Send me an email at [email protected] and reference the paper in the title so I don't delete it as spam.

You might try papersandmore.com. I made the mistake of ordering cardstock and envelopes from Amazon. Their Neenah white 110# is thinner than 85#. The envelopes were embarrassingly thin. i threw them out, actually. Paper is no longer made in the USA, of pulp from trees, so it has a hard finish that challenges die-cutting machines and often looks cheap and shiny. Treasure your OLD cardstock!
