How many shades of ivory are there??? I swear I feel like this whole paper process was like choosing a diamond. You would think that given my profession I'd understand paper a bit better... but MY GOODNESS... in the 8 years that I have been designing I have not lingered over paper for so long.
So I arrive at my cheapy store today armed with my 3 different swatches of ivory and explain to the nice man what I am trying to do.. I have my 3 samples spread about.. I'm flipping between a swatch book and I have pulled of the shelf another ivory sample of my paper brand. So as I am explaining that everything has to match and the paper needs to be ivory and not too yellow.. I have a moment, I realize that I have officially become a bit of a bridezilla over paper. So I stop an I say OK just order me this ivory paper in this weight and I promise to not look at my swatch samples anymore once the paper comes in.
So that was it. As my fiance would say.. I finally MANNED UP and made a decision.
In all honesty when I picked out my diamond, it was NOT THIS TOUGH!
