Online source for nice heavy cardstock?
in Crafts
Hey ladies...
I am a bridesmaid in a wedding this summer and my job is to do the invitations. Yay! The concept thus far is to have a rustic chic look. Burlap (or hemp) pouches containing the invite and RSVP.
I would like to find some nice heavy card to have them printed onto. The print shop I use doesn't have what I want.
Any online sites for me to check out?
Thanks!
Re: Online source for nice heavy cardstock?
I ordered my invite supplies from Paperandmore.com and cardsandpockets.com. You can order samples to see if you like the weight/color, and they both ship quickly and have very qood quality products.

Paper Presentation is a local store that I use but I know they also sell online. I'm always happy with them but I'm not sure how they stack up pricewise to some of the other suggestions. They may be worth a look though.

I got all my paper for my wedding at Anchor Paper.
http://www.shopanchorpaper.com/
It was the best deal I found by far, and he even included a ton of ends that I was actually able to use because I was cutting smaller inserts for my pocketfold invites. I didn't even open some of the reams I had calculated that I would need because of them. The only catch with Anchor is that really should order some samples of what you think you want because the site is not the most intuitive for shopping. However, Tom was as helpful as I could have ever asked for. The paper was gorgeous, and it actually matched perfectly with the pocketfolds that I had purchased at paperandmore.com (which is more expensive for actual paper).
