I'm using a temperamental inkjet printer but I'm DIY'ing my cry packs. What kind of paper should I use? TIA!

Re: what kind of paper for cry packs?
I wish I had a pic of mine, I loved them!! They were one of my fav DIY projects, but we had sooo many people at the church that they were gone before our photographers arrived!!
I bouhght BEAUTIFUL scrap book paper, but realized that I couldnt print on it without it smudging!! I used clear frosted labels that were the same size as the fold so that they went clear to the edges and I printed on the labels and stuck them on the paper. It looked perfect! Since the label ran all the way to the edge you couldn't tell that we used a label at all! Everyone that saw them told me they loved them!
Good luck!

They sound beautiful! I might try that. I don't want to use regular printer paper because I think it's way nicer with some sort of stock to it. I might try the labels if I don't find a heavier paper to use in my inkjet. Thanks!
