Default Birgit's Cardstock

Does anyone know what cardstock Birgit (Biggan) uses? It looks like a textured linen and in her descriptions she says it's Paper Accent. I went to their site, but there are so many different white papers. It's hard to tell one from the other, and I'd like to get the right one. Can anyone help me. Thanks, Karen

Yes, I did p.m. her but didn't receive a reply. I also checked MANY of her card descriptions with no luck. I just admire her talent so much!

There are so many of us who admire her work, we could start a fan club. I emailed once asking as well but I assume she gets so many requests/emails she didnt get around to it. I would love to know as well so will join the queue.

I know I've seen the answer to this at sometime, but I can't remember. I even checked out her blog , but no answers there either.

It also said Birgit's source was in Europe but it was unspecified.

I wonder if it could be Fabriano. Back in the day, a lot of the stamping royalty would use this. Looks like you can get it at Dick Blick and some other art supply stores.

On her latest blog entry she put links to the supplies and tools she used. The cardstock link goes to Bazzill cardstock at a Swedish supplier.

Cardstock link - Cardstock - Pyssloteket

I hope this solves the mystery. I love her cards!

You get the ACE detective award. I looked at that blog entry, but I didn't realize that the photos were links thinking it was a grouping of inspiration colors!

I've looked for some linen type papers, but many that I've found don't match my Neenah Classic Crest Solar White that is my staple card base and layers. Have you ever realized just how many colors of white there really are???

I asked here on SCS about finding one that matches, and someone (I think it was the inimitable dini!) said to get the Neenah Classic Linen in Solar White! Duh! Why didn't I think of that one?! So...as soon as I can get to my regular paper supplier (who has said Neenah classic linen in stock) I'll be getting that one.

Default Paper Accents

Her posts list the texture paper as Paper Accents which is a company based in Oregon. You can Google the company and find a list of internet suppliers. My favorite supplier for this is franticstamper.com. She is currently out of stock, but is expecting to receive a shipment later this week. I believe the name of the cardstock is 12x12 Stash Builder Textured Snow White 65 lb. Marsha

Thank you so much - franticstamper is my favorite shopping place so I order the paper along with the JOFY stamps that were in my cart. :p:p

She uses several white card stocks......

The card stock I would really like to find is the one shown in this card:
Rapport fr�n ett skrivbord: CAS-ual Fridays 131


I think the 1st picture in this post is Brazzil Canvas:
Rapport fr�n ett skrivbord: Pyssloteket glittrar idag!

The textures of the 2 card stocks is very different...... Anyone have an idea what card stock is used in the 1st link i posted?
