Looking for paper/cardstock source
My favorite stamp store has gradually become more focused on
scrapbooking, to the point that they no longer seem to carry much paper card/tag art. I am looking for a good on-line source for basic cardstock, e.g. glossy white/black, matte white, coated and non-coated, etc. I need a variety to use with various stamping techniques. All I seem to find is various colored stock. Thanks for any help you can give me. Ginger |

It happened to my favorite local stamp store, too ... and then Embossing Arts, down the road apiece, went out of business. That left Craft World - but they shut their doors here just before the holidays. There's no longer a single store in this town where I can buy stamps - or much of anything else in the way of craft supplies. All my stamp purchases are now made n line (which isn't a *bad* thing, 'cause it makes for a much wider choice of designs, but I miss my instant gratification!) I am looking for a good on-line source for basic cardstock, e.g. glossy white/black, matte white, coated and non-coated, etc. I need a variety to use with various stamping techniques. All I seem to find is various colored stock. Try these: The Paper Palette (http://www.insta-site.com/ThePaperPalette/) - while they specialize in exotic and decorative papers, they do have basic blacks and whites in their glossy, non-glossy and Star Dream text-weight categories. Great folks to do business with. Marco's Paper (http://www.marcopaper.com/index.html) - Good prices on bulk packages of basic white cover stock, among many other things. You might also check with commercial printing companies in your area - I've found that they're often willing to sell a case of paper at not much more than they pay for it wholesale, and one printer in our area is even willing to let people order from his paper suppliers through him - again, in case quantities. You can buy reasonably good-quality white or off-white stock at the big box office supply stores such as Staples. Look for "cover stock." -- Pat Kight |

I have heard that paperzone.com is a great site for getting the right kinds of
cardstock. They have coated and uncoated, vellums, and glossy. ~Donna~ SAHM Val Gal 17, Wendy Woo 14, Seany 10 6 years of Stamping Bliss |

One of my favorite, and they have GREAT
sales, for the basics, is Neenah Paper. They have a few decorative papers, but 99% is just basic cardstock (which is 80 lb Cover - it can get VERY confusing as they have all kinds of weights available also) here is the link: http://www.neenahpaper.com/ The paper quality is fantastic!! I can't say enough about the quality and the pricing - everyone who buys from Neenah is thrilled. I'd love to know what you all think : ) -- Christi Stampin' Up!
