Neenah Exact Index Cardstock, 8.5" x 11", 110 lb/199 gsm, Ivory, 250 Sheets (48588)

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.

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.

Best buy for this! Prints in my printer!

The card stock is a good quality and heavy enough to use for all projects However, the color is a little more yellow than ivory. Ivory is suppose to be as close to neutral as you can get but this has a very loud yellow tone to it. I am still using it but doubtful if I order again.

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!

I like the almond color. It is perfect for my project. The stiffness of the paper is just right. It works great on both our copy machine and my ink jet printer. Prints on both sides evenly.

We're using this card stock to create product tags for handmade wearable art. The ivory color is perfect (not too pale, not too dark) and the heavy weight (110 lb) is exactly what we were looking for. The color is consistent through each piece and the matte finish is smooth and goes through the printer easily. We're very happy with this card stock and would recommend to someone looking for heavyweight card stock in a neutral color that is more interesting than white.

A really nice weight paper to provide sturdiness for a lot of handling but not so stiff it is difficult to use. We used it to print out custom bingo cards for a wedding and they held up to the handling as people went around finding the 'answers' to the questions (questions about the guests: who has lived in Thailand, who is a microbiologist, etc...). So each paper was handled and shifted around in the hands, and competed with the food on the table...and held up well.

Great card stock for printing. I use them for printing purse patterns. I’m

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.
