Review on 🎨 Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock: Vibrant 20-Pack, 4.25x5.5-Inch by Tara Ford

Save money and buy 140lb real watercolor paper!

This product is working properly. It only weighs 118 pounds, so it doesn't hold up at all if you plan on painting on it with a watercolor paintbrush. I used several sheets and they are all glued together and I don't use much water at all. I did wet to wet and wet to dry and both times I had pellets. The fibers come loose and begin to float in the ink, which is not due to overwork. With this paper, you're paying for the convenience of being precut to a typical card size, but if you want to paint on your card with watercolor paints, buy a real 140 lb pad of watercolor paper and cut it yourself. This paper works well for stamp and distress ink, but if you plan on adding water and manipulating the brush, use regular watercolor paper. I'm very disappointed to see my favorite YouTube card makers absolutely love this!

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
