Default Papertreyink Very Vanilla paper match

I like to order the white cardstock from PTI for bases. Can you tell me which color matches very vanilla from stampin up. I need it for card bases also.
Thank you

As for a match...I use Neenah Classic Crest in Solar White for my bases...and when I checked the color book at my paper supplier, the Classic Crest has a match for Vanilla. I'm pretty sure it was their Classic Natural White, but I don't have a ream in front of me.

I still am using some Astropaque Natural that was a match, but they don't make it any more. When I run out, I'll get the Neenah.

I think the only thing even remotely close to a vanilla at PTI would be their vintage cream color.

What color at Gina K site matches the whisper white and very vanilla from stampin up? I need this for a card base and for layering.

The ivory would be a match or close for the vanilla and the white for the whisper white. I have bought both the heavyweight and the layering weight and loved both.

I ordered from Gina K today. I hope I like the Ivory and white as much as everyone else. Ordered 4 packs of each.

Going out on a limb here but....I'm sure you will love them!! I use the heavy and the layering weight on almost all my cards. You will actually feel that you are holding a card when you use the heavy weight for base. Enjoy

Diane is right, the Neenah color is Natural and I think it is a dead ringer for vanilla. They do make it in a 100 or 110# weight, it's heavier than the 80# (although I use the 80# for bases too.
