I had to go look... haha. I like patterned solids for my backgrounds, usually. I tend to make sure I have some in every kit I've designed because I feel like they are essentials! Papers that from a distance seem solid but when you click to look closer there's a faint texture or pattern there. Those are my favorites. Tone on tone, or a simple pattern like a diagonal stripe, grid, woodgrain, etc. And like Cassie, if it's too plain I love dressing up the background with paint or overlaying with a busier paper with some transparency.
