Hi I am new on splitcoasters. I am looking for a paper that works as well as beckett paper. Only paper that seems to bring out colors and works best with copic markers. Anyone know another paper that works well. I even tried a vellum, which works, but not as well.

Hi Patricia and welcome to SCS. I can't help you with the paper query but I know someone here will be able to. Don't be alarmed if this thread gets moved to another part of the forum for product queries - you will get a link. Anyway have heaps of fun exploring the forum - we are all happy to help!

You also want to make sure you're using a good ink that won't smear like Memento.
Oh!! I thought memento was an ink of choice for copics. I'm quite sure many use it with copics - I know I do. The copic cardstock that you mention is fabulous, and so is Neenah's paper. I've not tried Gina K's paper.
I use memento tuxedo black all of the time with my copics - no bleeding at all.
I use Gina K's pure luxury. The Copics don't bleed through the cardstock. And I also only use Momento ink on the stamp that I'm going to color. I've had no bleeding issues.

It is! Maybe my wording was a little weird. Memento is the ink of choice. Sorry if my lack of a comma placement confused anyone!
I use Papertrey Ink's Stampers Select. It has a great weight (110#) but still goes through the printer nicely for digis and works beautifully with Copics.
My 2 cents in support of an Ohio-based small business.
thanks for your post, this is a new one, you mentioned. I had not heard of the one from papertrey ink. will look into it. thanks for your time. I now use Beckett paper, I can only get at a local stamp store. It seems expensive and $4.99 for 12 sheets. It isn't bad I suppose, but there must be others I thought. It works great, but not always in stock.
thanks again
see, I thought that was a bit much, for something, one might have to use more than a piece. Like when I mess up and have to start again
I appreciate your help and going to check out papertrey, the ink stampers select.
thanks
