Card and sansodor.......

[Pemmie]

Hi

Could anyone please, please, recommend some smooth white card suitable for using with prismas and sansodor? The card I have is driving me nuts! It seem to be very absorbent and I'm not getting the coverage with the colours (not prismas, still waiting for those!) that I am using atm. I realise that it could be the quality of the pencils, but they have worked on other card in the past.
It's just I have not got the funds at the moment to keep buying different cardstock to experiment on and I dont keep a note of where I buy it.
I have looked back through the threads , as I am sure I read info on this before, but never took much notice, now I cant find it
If anyone could help I would be very grateful

Thanks

I use the wrong side of white linen card from the Paper Cellar stand in my local craft shop - you know the ones where you fill a box for 4.99 or 6.99 for the larger one. Some of the girls here use the Paper Mill shop, which also sells online I think. I think it's pretty much the same as the Paper Cellar shop.

You can also use watercolour paper or acrylic paper. Just be careful that they are true white, as I used the wrong side of an old acrylic pad I had and it wasn't a good match to my white card blank (of course only discovered this after I'd taken ages colouring my image ).

HTH.

I have used A3 card from wh smith and cut it down. it is smoth and works well. It is normally 3.99 a pack a thing but my local is selling it at 1.99. Best I have used so far. but I have heard loads people raving about stamping up card that Monica is talking about although never tried it myself
