Usages of Coloured Card Stock in Australia

The cardstock should be fine to use with acrylic paints. Acrylic paints dry quickly, so if you find it does so even faster, you can apply some acrylic medium before you paint. You can paint on cardstock. For the best results, you'll want to use heavy cardstock, and acrylic paint, and limit how much water you use. If your cardstock gets too wet, it can start to pill, warp, ripple, or tear. This is why watercolour isn't a great choice for cardstock–try to get a specific watercolour paper for that.

Difference between Standard Cardstock and Premium Cardstock

Premium card stock — A little thicker than regular card stock, premium card stock can be coated or uncoated, giving it a more substantial feel. Plastic — To really stand out, some professionals opt for thicker plastic versions of business cards. Not only can you print on cardstock with an inkjet printer, but you can achieve really great results. Many inkjet printers can print on thick cards and are versatile enough to print photo lab-quality photos and graphics.

Commonly, business cards are printed on 14 or 16pt stock, while extra-thick cards are printed on 18pt or 32pt (sometimes even thicker) stock. Usually, 350 gsm card stocks are considered the best paper weight for printing greeting cards.
