Have a look at large format drawing pads, or rolled butcher paper, or rolled kraft paper as a source. Try asking at your local art supply store. They probably have something suitable. Rev.

If you are having moisture issues even using blotter paper, you are probably using too much glue, or the glue you are using has too much water in it. Try using a small sponge roller to apply your glue. It does a good job of giving maximum coverage without over applying. Or try upgrading to a better quality PVA glue. They tend to be thicker (less water) and you will get better adhesion with less glue.Rev.
