Suitable for alcohol markers

I purchased this paper because I needed thicker cardstock to try on my new Ohuhu markers. I've never used alcohol markers so wasn't sure what to get, but I knew I needed thicker paper so that's what I got. If you are given this for markings you need to be aware that if you press too hard they will puff up a lot. You really need to use a light touch when you're close to the lines you've created to not go over them. The marks bleed a bit, you can see them on the back of the paper, but the paper is thick enough that they don't bleed onto the underside (although I put a piece of Bristol paper underneath just in case). However, they harmonize well with this paper and end up being very bright and beautiful. If you use liner to mark your work I would choose a different paper. I use Micron pencil liner and tested a random Loft pencil liner and this paper gives them a little "fluff" which makes the lines jagged. If you put extra pressure on it, it's not too bad and I'll use this paper until I'm done, but I'll choose something else in the future. Not the papers fault, just not the best for what I need it for :)
