i’m going to make my own Rose petal cones…and I wanna make them out of this kind of paper. Where can I get like 100 sheets for about
30$? Or can you? HELP!
OMG i didnt say Vellium..i said Vellum….sheets of PAPER wow read the question it wasn’t coded!!! Jeese
I used www.paperandmore.com as some others have already posted. I bought everything I needed for my wedding invitations there.
I highly recommend them.
I actually have a lot left of this one http://www.paperandmore.com/metallic_platinum_vellum_paper_30.html#more_pictures
from my wedding. I believe there is probably 75 or more 8 1/2 X 11 sheets left. I can’t remember but I would be willing to give them to you if you send the postage for them. A self addressed postage paid envelope would be fine. If you would like them email through my profile. I have no use for them anymore.
Otherwise a pack of 100 at the above site is only 21.99 and if I remember correctly shipping is only 3.99.
