Review on Strathmore Black Mixed Media Sheets Crafting by Amber Perez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Heavyweight paper, no canvas

It was my fault, I thought it was tablet paper and not real poster board. I'm new to this and didn't really know mixed media was going to be a paper product. However, as they say, they are very durable and take acrylic paint quite well. The black color makes the colors more muted, but you can apply extra layers and this paper holds them up well. It's difficult to correct mistakes (which I do!) as the paper becomes dull when rubbed or erased. Also, I would like the black to be a more saturated black color, for me it's a little faded. I think it's a good product if you understand what it's made of and the needs of your project.

Pros
  • Kraft paper
Cons
  • Damaged
