Paper Doll(Cricut) skin tones

[BernardandMissBianca]

Do you guys use a specific color and brand for skin tones for the Cricut paper dolls? I had some paper that I've had forever that worked but I've just about run out and I have no idea who it's from.

Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm good with ordering online and I have Mike's, ACM, and Joann's in the area.

I use bazzill for my own stuff. Peach Glow, Savannah and Sawdust. According to this site. http://store.scrapbook.com/products/bazzill+paper.html?t20=tan I never remember to check the color names at the LSS.

For other projects like the dolls for the dance camps I use the cheap J's skin tone papers.

I like Savannah and Sawdust, I don't think they had those at Mike's though.
I will look through my swatch packs.

I think the old paper might have been bought at J's but I'm not sure. Did yours come in a paper pack or single sheets?

Oh I like that one. I need to see if Lisa has any of that in stock.

How about ethic skin tones?

I had some that came in the DCVW i think it was cardstock multipacks, from when I first started with my cricut. I'm kind of bad because I just sort everything out into colors and just use it. For ethnic I just use whatever I have on hand mostly the same as above. Bazzill for my stuff, cheap J's open stock for other stuff.

Buffy, I mostly use WorldWin paper for skin tones. Think I heard about it here...

I have two of their colors; Light Caribbean Coral and Medium Caribbean Coral (and the paper also says "ColorMates"). I bought both from k8memories.com online, in packs of 50.

The paper is heavy (65#), but not textured, which I like for skin. I find it easier to use smooth paper for this purpose...and this is a nice color. It does NOT tend to orangey, which is how it can appear in online swatches - at least on my monitor. For more ethnic skin tones, I've used sheets from a "natural" paper pack - think it was from Jo's... and also smooth.

Hope this helps -

I just use a smooth creamy color for mine...if ethnic choose something a bit darker.

I will have to check, but if I don't I can easily order.
