I agree... if you want to make things "fancy", use more professional paper in cream or white, or maybe even a light grey. But don't use patterns! I've never had experience with recs before, but I know that pretty paper won't get you job interviews, so I highly doubt they'll get you a bid to a sorority. K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid!) ... not that you're stupid, but you get the idea.

If you want to stand out, put your name in bold, in a different font (nothing too crazy, though!). For descriptions of your involvement in clubs and activities, use a lot of "-ed" words: prepared, managed, received, led, participated, created, etc.
