Default Cardstock to match kit

I just bought/downloaded the Country Roads kit by Katie Pertiet. I'd really like some additional cardstock to go with it, specifically, I want a green one that matches the greens used in the kit for the embellishments. I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the cardstock kits though, and it's hard to tell on a computer screen if one is a good match or not. Could anyone tell me which pack might be my best bet?

Thanks! (And hi, I'm new! I love Katie Pertiet's stuff and never realized there's a forum here!)

Hi - sorry, don't know your name! Welcome to the best place in digiland!
Had a bit of a look and I think any of these packs would be pretty close - close enough to do a little tweak with your hue or saturation sliders in photoshop or elements if you're really obsessive about matching (like me!!).

Classic Cardstock: Authentic

Classic Cardstock: Cleansing

Thanks a bunch! I will check those ones out. I forgot about the hue/saturation thing. I use it all the time when editing pictures but always forget about it when scrapbooking for some reason.

Also, how about sampling a color from a paper in the kit. You can play around with overlays and filters (there is a filter that makes it looks just like Bazzill cardstock) to finish things off. Saves you a few bucks too.
