In todays’ Unique Paper Series the spotlight is paper with natural colors, tones and patterns. I love these papers and am thrilled with the variety Stampin’Up! offers.
Let’s dive in! Today I’m featuring five options for you.
Texture, colors, pattern and unique natural tones are my focus.
Cork
Layer your nature-inspired cards and scrapbook pages with the Cork 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Specialty Paper. While this paper is perfect for adding layered dimension to any project, you can also die cut and punch it to add custom embellishments. Perfect for scrapbooking, card making, and more!
* 2 sheets
* 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm)
* Acid free

Cork Paper is on the Retiring /Last Chance list. When this Mini Catalog is over so is this lovely paper. The last chance sale begins on December 1st.

Linen
Create texture for your projects with Linen Specialty Paper. Stamp on it to create textured images or use it alone as a background or accent. The neutral color makes it easy to customize with stamping or sponging.
* 2 adhesive sheets
* 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm)

These accents with the linen paper are just lovely- the above photo almost makes it look like this was an alcohol ink technique but, it’s a die cut using this specialty paper.
You can find this in the annual catalog on page 136
Ever Eden Cotton
Wrap up a project with the Ever Eden 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cotton Paper for a textured finishing touch! With a feel similar to tissue paper, our cotton paper offers a unique way to add dimension and visual interest to any paper project. Or, use it to wrap gifts for special occasions! Cut, rip, wrap, crinkle, or fold, there’s no limit to what you can create!
However, there is a limit to how long this paper will be available.

• 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm)

Remember ages ago when Stampin’Up! carried Mulberry Paper? This tears in a similar way. It makes lovely light weight layers. For this card- I cut a piece wider than the focal image then tore vertically downward to get this distressed look.
Do you love that embossed wood tone layer for yet another natural element? Click on the image to pop over to my webshop to see this product!
Good News! The Timber 3D embossing folder is on the Carry Over list. Yeah!!!
Natural Touch
Natural Touch wood toned paper is found in the Clearance Rack. As of the writing of this post 11/23/21 it is still available! Seriously on sale- it won’t last long! Click on the photo to take you right to the clearance rack to snag a package (or several!) It’s only $2.00 per package!
Add lovely texture to your creations with the Natural Touch Specialty Paper. The pale woodgrain is versatile enough for any project and any time of year. Emboss it and use it with dies. Use large pieces of it as a background or cut out pieces to use as accents.

In Good Taste Designer Series Paper
Not a specialty paper but it is fabulous for a natural look in patterned paper.
Truly, it’s one of my favorites for wood tones, fabric like textures and ceramic tiles – it deserves a place in this post! It’s been in the Annual Catalog now for 2 years and I’m so glad Stampin’Up! designed it.
So Versatile!
…a peek at some of the realistic patterning in the wood tone paper- it’s brilliant!
Beautiful layers and rich textures combine to make the perfect creation. Adjust the
color scheme to make the project feminine or masculine. Each sheet has photographic images of wood, tile, stone, and other elements. The images and visual textures add interest to a variety of projects. This papercrafting staple is great scrapbook paper, card making paper, and more!

Click on this image to see last week’s Unique Paper Post about Foils. I combined the In Good Taste patterned paper with copper foil, this makes for an easy and quick masculine Christmas Card!
One more link back to previous project articles. This fun project really shows off the In Good Taste – the texture shown here is so realistic you think that by touching it you will feel the fabric weave. It’s smooth of course but it sure makes you think it will be the weave and slub of this type of fabric!
Here’s the inside of the above project. The whole thing is a Monday Makeover of a purse card. The original was so long ago that I don’t even remember the year! I gave it a fun update with current products. Click above to see the Color & Contour Bundle. It’s a really fun way to use a floral set!
Thanks so much for following along with the November Unique Paper Series. Next week closes out this series. I will bring another mini series highlighting the specialty papers featured in the next Mini Catalog. Watch for that coming in early 2022!
Have a beautiful Holiday Week! I’m forever grateful to my customers.
