Cardstock paper and Mulberry paper are some of the best papers to use for scrapbook keeping. Ultimately, these papers are thick, and the Mulberry paper is quite fibrous as well.

Your greatest concern for scrap booking and paper is to make sure that it is acid free. If the paper is not acid free discoloration over time will occur. You should also make sure items like tape and pictures applied to the paper are acid free as well.

The longest lasting paper is that which is acid free. Paper with acid in it will brown and become fragile. Acid free does not deteriorate in the same way.

There are lots of choices in scrapbooking papers, but the one thing you absolutely have to have is a paper that is labeled as "acid free." This prevents the book from deteriorating over time; it is sold almost everywhere and is usually labeled clearly and is not too very expensive.
