I started making cards in 97. Started off with graphic designs because photos just didn't speak to me. I personalize every single card with first names to everyone and hope I never miss anyone. When we moved back to MT I started taking photos of outdoor STUFF like Moose in our yard and Eagles and wild Turkey's and Mt. Goats and Ram's and oh yeah plants too and trees. Live in the NW heart of the rockies mostly forested and what do you know this kind of paper allows me to do photo work on outside and design a lovely hallmark sometimes a bit whimsical and personalize the cards and add sentiments inside. How fantastic is that. Beats white bread every time. Also due to the double sided printing I can still keep my cards at the basic first class stamp postage. Ok most of the time sometimes I need to write a letter to those really close to us. I have no idea why the world turned upside down over card giving but I grew up where a card was about letting the person who was sent one know YOU CARED ABOUT THEM. I am aware when mimeographs came into being in the 60's that was the start of the BRAG letters that morphed into worse the horrible two sometimes four pages of both sided thumbnail photo expose's of where they sat on the beach and had coctails at some bar or what have you and oh wait what happened to GREETINGS to YOU. I'm still old fashion and I still want the person who gets the card to know it's about them and that they gave our lives joy in knowing them. It's a bit upside down world these days I understand social media and technology has helped flip things over a few times over the past 50 years or so. NO WAY not 50 years. Almost married to same fella that long. Dang where did that time go. Sure glad for this paper as it saves a little time and actually money via postage and lets me send a decent looking card that usually is well received. So I have one itty picky little negative with this paper. It will break along it's crease line now and again if you are not super careful when you fold it over. About 1 in 30-40 cards this happens too. If you have to for some reason re-crease or try to adjust your fold at all it will definitely break. Usually not enough I feel the need to print another card but it's upsetting sometimes. They make a lighter weight and heavier weight paper both double sided too. I haven't tried either yet. I plan to pick up a 100 pack of the lighter to keep on hand just in case USPS jumps it's postage again. Didn't use to have to worry now definitely it's something to be mindful of. I am happy with the quality of the print. (Not always my printer or printers but the card does a decent job for sure. No not great but it's not an expensive paper so you can't expect EXPENSIVE 50 cents to 2 or even 3 dollar a sheet paper. (I can't believe I used to pay that much 20 years ago.) Stay safe everyone and get out there and get some wonderful OUTDOOR PHOTOS.oh sure get a few shots of you know who in their beach chair to send along in those thumbnails. It could be anyone btw as who can say that isn't Uncle JJ or is it .honey where's my magnifier the BIG ONE. :)))) One side is really the PHOTO paper here the other takes good text and graphics well but not so much photo on the flip side. I also feed one sheet at a time through the printers when making a big run. Stay safe.but enjoy life and find some HUMOR.
