I am using up the last of my BOBW kit for march or april, and it had some really great red paper - nice bright red but not a juvenile print. I've already re-ordered them, but have since realized that I don't have hardly any simple, pretty, bright red in my stash. Not that I have much red at all anyway, but it's all vintage-y or darker, which I hardly ever use anymore.
So now I'm on a hunt for some nice red papers. I'm burned out on the bobunny polka dot stuff, but other than that and just plain cardstock, I don't really know of any great red patterned paper. Can ya help a girl out? What do you like? What collections should I check into?
To give you an example, the papers that I'm loving right now are Candy Cane in the Noel collection by Elle's studio, and Signpost in the Thataway collecton by Studio Calico. Simple, but bright and clean. Multi colored papers would be cool too, as long as the main color is red.
I can't wait to see what direction yall point me!

Glitz design has a few red patterned papers I believe. Also, echo park had a 'styles essentials' collection that has some red/white patterned paper. That's all I can think of at the moment. I'll be back if any more come to mind.

I just looked through the Echo park and Carta Bella collections on their website. There are quite a few collections that have one or two nice red patterned papers in them but not really one collection that is entirely red. I did a wedding scrapbook last year that was black/white/red and I remember spending a fair big of time looking for red patterned paper. Good luck!

Great ideas, ladies, thanks so much! As far as the collections, I wasn't really clear on that, sorry! I'm not really looking for a collection of red papers, I just meant any collections that have some good red papers in them. Thataway by SC is such an eclectic collection, if it weren't for that specific paper on the BOBW list, I never would have noticed it. And the Elle's studio paper, it's actually from a Christmas collection but the red with thin white lines isn't specifically themed as Christmas, kwim? Well DUH.....as I was typing this out I just realized I should look through the Christmas lines! Hopefully I'll come across some non themed B sides. Off to check out the ideas yall gave me - thanks again. Cindy in Texas
