I am looking for cream/ivory/off white Stardream paper. Does anyone know what Stardream calls this color? Quartz, Citrine? Online, Citrine look like what I am looking for but I think normally Citrine has a yellowish tint.

Also, has anyone had anything printed at Kinko's on Stardream paper? Do laser printers print well on Stardream?

Thanks!

We used Stardream Quartz for our invitations, which was an ivory color in real life. I don't recall off the top of my head what Citrine looked like.

Try going to your local Michaels, Paper presentation or similar paper store and check it out first and then buy online. It's usually much less expensive online.

Good luck!

Stardream Opal -- quartz is more white, opal is has a yellow/ivory undertone. Here are the places we bought our stardream paper from:

You can buy samples from bluedot at 50 cents each. Laser printers work great on stardream -- better than inkjet. This is a battle i've been fighting, but I finally figured it out!

DON'T let Kinko's use anything inkjet on Stardream paper...it will never dry and will smudge....

As far as the color of paper....I'm not really sure...FI works for a paper company and I just asked..in a typical guy answer I get "I don't know, I can bring some samples home"...like that's going to help me now!!!
