DIY Invite (Paper ?)

What kind of paper do I use to print out my invites? I will be using a bottom layer for the invite. Is 60lbs enough or should I do 110lbs. I'm printing them at staples.

I *think* I usually use the 110 lbs.

ETA: I don't print them at Staples, I just buy the card stock there and print them at home.

when I make invites, I use 65lb and then back them with an additional 65lb piece for added thickness and decorative edge!

Also, many "at home" printers will not handle more than 65lb
