Where to get Cardstock?

Well Happy Sunday night! :)
I'm doing some petal programs and am looking for some 110lb cardstock. Staples only has limited colors, so I was trying to find other places that have a good variety. I've never dealt with any of those paper sites, so any suggestions would be great!

Also, has anyone printed 110lb cardstock on a regular HP printer? Does it like the heavy cardstock? Ooorrrr, has anyone used the Staples Print Center before? Are they cheaper than trying to DIY?
Thank you!!!

    I used PaperSource for my DIY projects (programs, menu cards, etc.).  I had Staples print/cut for me, and I was happy with the service.

    Hmmm, so if 110lb is TOO thick for my printer at home, and I need heavy paper for those petal fans, would you recommend I take a coverstock and like glue two pieces together to make it thicker? Orrr just go to like staples and get it printed there?

    I went to Fedex Kinkos for some printing projects and they did a great job. I, too, was sad to find that a ream of my thick cardstock didn't go through my home printer.

    i bought all the paper i used for my wedding (programs, escort cards, table numbers, etc) from http://www.paper-papers.com they had a great selection. 

    to answer your other question, i've never tried printing 110lb, but i had no issue at all with 92lb.

    hth!  good luck!
