Quote from Nichole of Paper Trey:
There are a few major difference between our Stamper's Select White Cardstock and SU! Ultasmooth White Cardstock. Here are the major factors...
-ours doesn't have any coatings or finishers added to the top layer of the cardstock, therefore ink dries more quickly (less chance of smudging) and you are less likely to "slide" your stamp.
-ours is much thicker. We have quoted ours as 110lb. stock. In a side by side comparision of thickness, one sheet of PT cardstock equals 2 sheets of SU!'s white cardstock.
-ours is makes a much sturdier card bases (perfect for one layer cards)
-because of the thickness of ours, you have a greatly reduced chance of "bleed-through" that can occur with some darker, heavier inks.
-ours also works great with different coloring mediums, especially copics. The ink is so wet from these particular markers, you can sometimes end up with warping when using them with thinner cardstocks. The same goes for watercoloring.

I just got some PaperTrey cardstock and am anxious to try it out. I have been frustrated with trying to watercolor on SU or GP cardstock and have it curl. Thanks for sharing Nichole's comments.
