I would actually not use cardstock to make the crypacks. I tried using cardstock and they did not look nice. Instead I used regular paper. It's a lot easier to fold.

close to this... use 24lb paper. it's a little thicker than 'regular copy paper' (which is 20lb paper). they come out better that way
just look on the martha stewart website, she gives you the directions. there's also a bio on the knot. that's where i got the tip to use 24lb paper.

I would imagine Staples or any store should have it. I don't know how many lbs the paper I used is, but quite honestly, either one would be fine. In the end, people will be throwing these out so I didn't go crazy on this one. As long as it looks good, I think that's the only thing you should really be concerned about.
