The name cardstock comes from “card stock,” which originally meant the stock of card as received from the manufacturer. Today, cardstock, for which cover stock is sometimes used as a synonym, is used for a range of paper weights that are in demand for scrapbooking, as mounting surfaces for prints to be framed, for making business cards and greeting cards, and for a variety of paper crafts. The main features that distinguish a sheet of cardstock are weight, fiber, color, finish and surface texture, and size. Of these, weight is the feature that actually defines cardstock.
