PAUSE, REWIND... Cancel the logo design


In effort to offer a contest that might showcase our customer's talent, it has been brought to our attention that a Logo Design Contest is not a positive approach to this ultimate goal.

We apologize if for any reason you feel this contest (quote) "devalues the work produced by the whole design industry". Our heart is to respect and service our clientele.


We are changing the logo contest to: The Designer's Showcase

We apologize for any inconvenience this change may have caused.

Plike is the HOT trend for Fall!

Feature 10% OFF all P-LIKE Plike Paper and Envelopes10% Off P-like (Plastic-Like) Paper and Envelopes... September offers 10% OFF Plike Paper and Cardstock of all sizes & 10% Off Plike Envelopes. You don't want to miss the opportunity to save!

I hope this update finds all of you doing well! This time of the year represents a lot of changes. Our Summer seems to be winding down here in the Midwest...Children are back to school & Labor Day seems to be the last vacation day before Fall arrives.


I personally love Fall in the Midwest. The briskness in the air, the leaves changing colors and no more mosquito bites. In the spirit of Fall arriving, I thought we'd show off our Plike line of paper and envelopes.

P-like, which is manufactured by Gruppo Cordenons, is known for its unique "touch quality". In my experience, every person who touches this paper seems to pause and comment about how unique it feels. Plike feels uniquely nice, but also looks great! This month we have also included the Plike sampler pack at 10% discount just in case you need to test the paper before you buy. Plike will be our feature through the entire month of September.

Canada just got more convenient...This is for all those Canadian customers who constantly struggle with "How should I ship?". We have taken the mystery away from the 'Brokerage' fees. Paper-Papers has 3 pages of information dedicated to our Canadian clientele.

  • FIRST - We recommend you check our Canadian Frequently Asked Questions. FAQ will help understand basic questions & whether you should consider UPS as your shipping solution when ordering from PAPER-PAPERS.

  • SECOND - We have created a form that will Calculate 'Commercial' or 'Residential' brokerage fees to Canada. This will calculate the estimated fees to expect upon delivery of your package. Shipping charges are calculated as you process your order at PAPER-PAPERS, but once deliveries cross the border, the shipment incurs additional fees that many customer's find as a surprise. Don't be surprised...know your fees before you buy.

  • THIRD - We have a chart that explains how the calculations come about. If you are the type of person that wants to see 'How' the fees added up...this chart is for you. Rate Guide for Customs Clearance into Canada.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!Sincerely, Loriand The Team at Paper-Papers
