What is text weight paper? Mainly, what is the difference between that and cardstock? Can I use cardstock instead of text weight paper? TIA

I would def. get cardstock. It's thicker and better quality. I meant to order cardstock from the website i'm ordering all my invites from and ordered text paper instead. So i'm just using the text paper for bridal shower, and then ordered cardstock for wedding! Def. do that!!! And idk where you are getting it from, but paper and more is amazing!

Thanks mandi -- I ordered a few samples of text paper from paper and more -- thanks for the recommendation. Given the programs -- the lighter weight may be better than cardstock...I ordered just enough to give it a try -- glad they do samples!
