Best cardstock for stamping?

Jul '14 Emgerard12

I was wondering what everyone thinks is the best white cardstock for stamping? I am looking for a cardstock that will not bleed when I color a stamped image with Copic marker or won't pill when I use water based markers. I also like to use watercolor pencils and gelatos.

Thanks!

Hi, for copic markers I use X-Press It cardstock. It's nice and white and smooth good weight. I like it the best. excellent and a bit expensive but worth it. For water color I use Canson 140lbs watercolor paper. I hope this helps. Good luck

Thank you! I will try these and see how it works! I have watercolor paper in my stash and I have the X-Press It on order. I did try a thicker cardstock from a national brick and mortar craft store and it seemed to work better than what I have been using.
