When I lived in California, there was a lady who collected old fabric scraps and made her own "linen" paper. It was not the kind of linen paper you write letters on, but was a thicker paper for crafters to make lamp shades of all sorts and shapes, as well as other crafts, including something to do with scrapbooking. You might try to find a high school or college arts class and see if they can use the scraps.
