i prefer the vellum paper over carol doaks but i know many people love her paper.
the paper is actually called Neenah Paper UV/Ultra II 17 Weight in Radiant White.
the paper tears away with total ease and i like that you can see thru the paper.
here's a link so you can see how translucent the paper is
