Where Can I Use Alcohol Markers?

I had a customer ask me, “Where Can I Use Alcohol Markers?” The reason behind her asking is that, being new to alcohol inks, she didn’t know that alcohol bleeds through the coloring panel, and the inside of her Note Cards were all showing ghosts of the front coloring.

I’m using the thick white card stock exclusively any more, and it will still bleed through a bit. Do any of you have a solution for Suzanne and her dilemma?
