This paper works well if you’re looking to practice on a bound pad and is great for any brush pens. It is semi transparent, so you can also put some guidelines underneath. The sheets are thin but ink does not bleed through.
These notepads come in various sizes and with different types of sheets. Along with blank sheets you can opt for lined, dotted or graph paper to help keeping your lettering a uniform size as well as keeping your lines straight.
This paper is wonderful to use for finished lettering projects because it is heavy weight and has a smooth finish.

Strathmore Bristol Smooth Paper
Similar to the Canon Bristol, we also recommend using the Strathmore Bristol for a heavy weight smooth paper that won’t hurt your brush pens.
Astrobrights Colored Card Stock
A great variety pack of colored paper if you’re looking for fun options. It is acid-free quality paper so works well for finished projects.
