Re: Tools of the trade (Cardstock)
Hmmmm.... I have a huge amount of cardstock. Enormous actually! I bought 160 pieces of Bazzill cardstock last year before discovering ACOT from another retailer. I'm probably pushing 225 pieces if I count other Bazzill I've bought and their Die Cut Pieces. Plus the remains of a Paper Reflections Package and Crafts Etc Black and White Cardstock.

I've looked at Cordinations....to much of a Bazzill gal. But I've been drooling over the Basic Grey Card Stock. I'm such a Basic Greyaholic! :-D

I'm a Bazzill girl. Other stocks just don't seem as sturdy.

I usually use based on what matches. I do prefer Bazzill, but I haven't seem anything from Coordinations (or whatever that was)

I prefer a sturdier cardstock if it is going to be the base of the LO. Otherwise, I'll go with what matches the LO.

Re: Tools of the trade (Cardstock)
I use alot of DCWV, and then Bazzill. I have American Crafts and Doodlebug, too. Overall, it doesn't matter alot to me , unless I want to use something specific like what Bazzill offers, like the shimmer or polka dot lines.

I use Bazzill for almost everything, and Stampin Up cardstock for making cards. I like that Core stuff too...not sure what's it called.

Honesty, I don't pay attention to what brand of cs I'm buying unless it says what it is on the pack, and, I don't usually buy packs. I mostly by by the sheet. The only brand of cs I bought by the pack was online: Bazzill.

I love Bazzill but American Crafts is just about as good and about 1/2 the price. I generally but whichever of the two that is on sale.

I usually just buy whatever catches my eye, so I couldn't tell you what brand it is! But I do like the Core'dinations, I even bought some more over the weekend. :-D

Bazzill. Archiver's was nice because it used to be free with the coupon every month, but it's thinner and the colors didn't usually coordinate as well as I would have liked (that's one of my "things--" it has to match to my exacting standards or it's a deal-breaker!!) but I found that I often just got their beige or white or black because of the matching issue.
I didn't know BG had cardstock now--I am off to the shop to check it out. Yippie, Skippy! Basic Grey is my favorite line of all!!

I LOVE Bazzil. I also really like Prism (but as someone said above, it's harder to find). And I do have some of the Core'dinations and it's nice too. I know I have lots of DCWV as well. Yeah, maybe I'm not that picky...:winkb:

Hi, I'm an equal opportunity shopper. I don't mind DCWV, it has it's purpose. Although, I do love Bazzill. I've been buying a lot of Bobunny swiss dot papers, those are awesome. And I do love Core'dinations. Any of it is good. I like the ones where you can emboss and sand for a fun effect.
