Default Good Paper color match for Aqua Mist

One of my favorite paper colors from PTI is Aqua mist, but it hasn’t been available for ages and I don’t know if it ever will. I’ve purchased a few light teals from Concord and 9th but nothing has been close yet. Has anyone had any success finding a paper color match for it? TIA

Have you checked out Gina K. Designs? Her 'Sea Glass' cs looks very similar. I have bought from her before and like her cardstock.

I also love PTI aqua mist cardstock and all of their cardstock.
I do have Stampin' Up pool party cardstock and it is VERY close to aqua mist, but just a tad darker.

Thank you both. I was looking at waterfall from spellbinders? I will have to look into the Gina K and SU colors you recommended. I’m going to wind up with a ream of experimental light aquatic cardstock. 😊

If you want to send me a PM I will send you a piece of Pool Party........can't help with the other one. At least it will save you the cost of one ream if it doesn't work out. LOL

I found this old post on Pinterest. It doesn't have Pool Party but it does have GinaK Ocean Mist vs. PTI. Aqua Mist.
http://ninabdesigns.blogspot.com/200...ns-su-and.html

Also, I buy a lot of my card stock form 12x12cardstock.shop. They do a really nice job with their descriptions which you might find helpful. They also sell single sheets so you won't have to buy an entire pkg to find what you want. I also found their customer service folks are very helpful and knowledgeable. Although they don't sell PTI, they may be familiar with the line and they might be able to direct you to their best match. Here's a link to the aquas:

Good luck. I hate when a favorite color gets discontinued.

I have Gina K Ocean Mist. If you want a sample, shoot me a PM and I will happily sent you one. I may have Sea Glass. It is a tad lighter than ocean mist.

I use a lot of Gina K cardstock. It has been a favorite for several years. I have a lot if SU also, but not much in the Pool Party color.

I have papers from PTI, C&9, SU, and a few others. I compared PTI Aqua Mist to the SU Pool Party and they are pretty much an exact match, with Pool Party being ever so slightly darker. I'll try to post a comparison picture here.

The really great thing is that Pool Party is a current color at Stampin Up and so you can order it without any issues.
