WausauExact Index Cardstock, 110 lb, 8.5 x 11 Inch, Pastel Gray, 250 Sheets (48598)

I've always relied on Neenah papers, and this ivory card stock is no exception to the quality I can expect from them. Contrary to quite a few comments, I see no difference it weight compared to other brands of 110 lb card stock. Bear in mind that it's not "cream" colored which is a lighter color than ivory. I use the index stock for drawing to reduce the blinding quality of white paper, and it gives my drawings a more vintage appearance. If you want to go darker than ivory, try "buff" colored. If you want to go lighter and still avoid white, try "cream." Overall, a very good, durable, and uniform card stock with a wonderful finish that seems to love both ink and pencil. Very pleased. Highly recommended. Product arrived as advertised.

Just what I needed.

good value and good product.

For the last 3 years I have been searching for a very heavy weight paper in ivory. I have yet to find one and had settled for a pale sunny yellow called ivory.This is NOT the color of a manila envelope as someone has stated. A manila envelope is a much darker, brownish yellow and is more similar in color to kraft paper (brown paper bag). This is more like the color of the ecru tab folders that are most commonly used in every office across the country.I have become convinced that it is nearly impossible to find a true ivory card stock as by making the paper thicker, it is less translucent and therefor WILL be darker. The heavier the paper, typically the darker the color. This color is ecru which is far better than most papers I have found and a much better quality. I use this for labels for product packaging as well as pamphlets and cards.This is truly a heavy card stock, unlike most that are labeled as so and is only really heavy paper. It really is index card thick. For those that left reviews and said that it was too light weight, they must be looking for super heavy card stock (more like poster board) and should really be searching for 130# weight or higher, not 110#.I am very pleased with this paper. It is the best quality, color, and value that I have found, as long as you keep in mind that ANY ivory card stock is not a true ivory. If the color is that important, than you may want to reconsider and use a lighter weight paper, perhaps 40# weight will provide you with better color results, but this is only slightly heavier than regular printer paper (which is usually around 20-30#).Oh, and to address, the shipping issue. I was a bit concerned about this but I think Amazon has paid attention to the complants. My paper was sent in an appropriately sized box with adequate padding. It was received still sealed and in mint condition. Hopefully yours will be received just as pristine, but if not, let Amazon know and they will replace it for you free of charge. I would just not wait 2-3 days before you need it, just in case.

When I compare 110 lb. papers (from 2 different companies, say) they are not the same. However, it is always better than the 65 lb. papers you can purchase from your local hobby shop. I've been using Neenah for many years, and this is probably my 5th pack. While, for some reason it is not the thickest paper, it is great for any of my handmade cards with a few layers of cardstock. The cards to not bend or buckle and the cardstock is heavy enough for my creations. I would recommend it to others!

This is my go-to, cover-weight paper. I use it for everything from printing postcards and flyers, to card making, to general paper crafting.Its bright white, matte finish accepts printer inks beautifully. My all-in-one printer doesn’t have a straight-through printing path. All paper has to curve up and around - this paper has never jammed my printer in all of the years I’ve used it (I reorder this paper regularly). The paper absorbs inkjet inks well enough that there’s no smearing, even if I allow multiple copies of photos to pile up in the printer tray. But at the same time, the inks dry nice and bright for a matte paper. (Inks are never quite as bright on matte as on glossy paper).I also use this paper regularly in papercrafting. The paper is heavy enough for postcards, but scores and creases smoothly for cardmaking. This is also my go-to paper with my Cricut (paper cutter) and my embossing machine. It cuts beautifully, even for quite intricate cuts like the snowflake designs I’ve included in my sample photos. I love the white-on-white embossed effects I can get with this paper, too. And it doesn’t tend to buckle when working with glues, so long as I don’t go overboard. I’ve also painted these papers with acrylics, dyes and water colors. The paper buckles while it’s wet, but tends to dry surprisingly flat.It’s also a fantastic value - at less than $10 for a 250 sheet ream after sales tax, it’s still under 5 cents/sheet. Which means I often use this when I’m prototyping designs, before cutting into my more expensive papers.I’ve included a number of photos from recent crafting to show some of how I use this paper. All of the white paper in my photos is this index paper.If you find my review useful, please click the ‘Helpful’ button below. Your feedback really encourages me to keep writing these reviews!

It is very confusing to find the correct weight of paper. I researched and researched, and this looked like a good option. Yet when I opened it, it feels like the same lighter weight cardstock I get from my local craft store. I have bought sooooo many packs of paper recently, getting ready to make Christmas cards. I pay attention to the weight and thickness and everything, and yet I haven't been able to find actual HEAVY cardstock. Very frustrating. The paper feels nice and if you're looking for something just heavier than typical printer paper, this could work for your project. But for me, I'm returning and continuing my search.

For card making, this is definitely not as sturdy and thick as my Neenah classic crest 110lb cardstock, which I love to use for copic coloring and card bases, but it will make a good 80lb weight for my layers

The media could not be loaded.  For my at home use making cards and crafting with my children, I am very happy with this product. Reading the reviews I was nervous that the paper would be too thin to make cards with, but it is thick and works great for my needs.

I disliked the fact that it is so flimsey, the same weight cardstock at Michaels is 100% better quality and heavier, won't be purchasing ths again! It is more like a heavy copy paper, not stiff enough to make cards, more like a 65lb weight!

This is more of a yellow ivory color than shown, not your typical "natural" off-white. A little disappointed with that. Also, at only 199gsm, it's pretty flimsy for a 110lb cardstock. If you're looking for the stiffness of a 110lb, this cardstock isn't it. Other than than, it's great quality for papercrafting or scrapbooking, with a nice smooth finish, even color, and a decent price.

The paper is less than 80lb, I would say 70? I compared with my neenah bristol and its almost the same as 65LB If you need it for something like cards this is too slim.

This isn’t nearly as heavy as other 110 pound cardstock I have used. Very disappointed. It’s feels more like the 67 range. Buyer beware.
