Default paper for copics

I'm traveling for work and there is a DickBlicks in the town I'm in. I know they have Copics but does anyone know if they have paper to use your copics with - any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

Neenah Solar white works great and is a recommended paper. It is heavier (think an 80) and acid free.

I've tried several of the papers copic recommended...but the new copic x-press it blending cardstock tops them all! It blends better than anything and the colors look truer. It is more expensive, but you only use it for your coloring layer so it will go a long way. It is well worth the price.

I like PaperTrey Ink's Stampers Select White. It makes a killer card base too.

Happy Shopping!

I use bristol smooth. It is art cs and copics work very well on it. It is readily available almost everywhere, I can even find it in my local Fred Meryer grocery store.

OK I'm sorry. I do know my LSS carries Bristol so I'd like to try it. Will I be looking for one called "Smooth"?


ETA: Is Bristol the brand or type. I'm looking around online and see Canson and Strathmore mixed in with Bristol. :confused:
