I really like the color spread of the pastel copy paper. I would like to see even more copy paper colors. I might expand the color range by looking at the bI rights or other choices that are available at Staples. Right now I think I have almost all the copy paper colors. I use some copy paper colors more than other copy paper colors which is to be expected. I have used the pastel copy paper as a background and the brights copy paper as the main paper in some invitations I created with my daugter.
The two best things about Staples Pastel Colored Paper are the variety and the price I was able to purchase it for. I am not certain just how many colors there are but a dozen seems to be in the neighborhood. They give you a lot of options depending on your actual color needs. Pink yellow light blue tan and the list goes on. The pricing was incredible as Staples will run these with a full rebate from time to time so your actual cost is nothing more than the sales tax assuming you did the rebate on-line and thus even save on postage.
I am a College professor and had intended to use this paper as part of a multi colored binder of materials to be distributed to my students. Becasue the papewr was not usable for printing it is only of use to me as scrap..
I find many uses for this lilac paper. I have used it for flyers invitations and thank you notes. The color makes it stand out from other plain white bond papers and helps attract attention on it's own. White paper has its uses but color paper stands out is attractive and extremely useful for many different projects in both my personal life as well as in the small business that I have. I have also found this paper to handy for my non-profit work. In addition I happen to love the color purple and this shade of lilac is perfect.
