Not many crafty bods around at mo ! I'm afraid I'mno expert on paper types Blush
I'm sure someone will be along soon & talk knowledgably about paper weight & thickness !

Thanks Whizzz :)
Am so useless with this sort of thing and no in the slightest bit crafty

You can order all sorts of stuff on line by the way - once you know what you need!
Some on here have used \link{http://www.pdacardandcraft.co.uk/\this place}
although there are loads more suppliers.

Thanks Whizzz, will have a look at that.
Anyone around to help me ? Am thinking mulberry paper (or am I..... just seen the name and it sounds good) but there are so many different types

Mulberry paper would not be that good for printing on (its really feathery) - I would suggest some sort of heavier weight paper. Do you want to print on it using a inkjet printer?? If so you would need one that would hold the ink

I think you might need something like \link{http://www.staples.co.uk/ENG/Catalog/cat_skuset.asp?CatIds=1088%2C1268,1289&name=UK%5FSK%5FDECAdry+Parchment+Letterheads%2C+A4\this sort of stuff} or maybe thinner card if you want it to go through a printer.

You could try Paperchase,they do some lovely paper.

Esmummy....do you mean paper for the inserts?

If so then try Staples for Conqueror concept/effects. It comes in packs of 50 A4 sheets and has a lovely pearlescent sheen to it which is great for Order of Service, wedding invitations etc.
Available in loads of colours too.

Thats great thanks, I will try staples.
Yes it is for the inserts and being printed on a HP deskjet printer, have got access to a better printer but means I have to get into the office to use it and that will take me 30 mins.
Will go to staples tomorrow and see how it goes.
Thanks again
