Nice shine, no peeling

I really like these glossy cards, nice colors and so shiny 😍 NO peeling and nice thickness. I wish it came in more colors, my only minus. Need more ASAP

Cons
  • Almost everything is there

quality and quantity.

This paper was medium thickness, not super thick like some brands. It was lighter and more durable. It also retained its perfect shape when hung up. The colors were beautiful. I have used for banners. Be sure to buy more as craft stores charge $1 per side.

Pros
  • Looking forward to it
Cons
  • Compatibility

That's what you want to get, right here.

Of the two glitter sets I've bought this seems like the best choice, the colors are about the same. The Darice stack looks more presentable and shows the suits it has. I am attaching photos so you can see it in more detail. I bought them for card making but I am sure I will use them for scrapbooking as well. The quality is much better than the other stacks I've bought but less thick. Overall I am happy with this purchase and would buy it again.

Glitter is everywhere

I may have received a different paper print than other reviews but when I cut it out with my silhouette the glitter came ALL loose. It's stuck on my cutting mat, it's in my car, it's spread to other papers in my craft. This was a great school project for my son, but I'm still paying the price for this (less expensive) glitter box. If you don't mind a glittery mess, this is good value for money. But if you want something better, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Cards
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Great price on jewelry!

I'm not a fan of glitter but I like to add some sparkle to cards. The biggest problem is that you know. seem to be! This card stock is great because the glitter stays on even tiny pieces after they've been cut out. And also. It's REALLY easy to cut on my die cutter, although that makes sense. I love the variety of colors and glitter on my cards, not the glitter all over the house. Winner! I also reviewed metal box - another 5 star purchase on Amazon!

Pros
  • Kraft
Cons
  • I'll write later

STINKY PAPER

This shiny cardboard box from Darice arrived with a terribly strong acrylic monomer smell! His smell preceded his arrival at the door and permeated the packaging! My husband, a polymer chemist, recognized the smell immediately. At his recommendation I have now laid out the whole box to let it evaporate so it can be used. Acrylic monomer is not only used to seal the glitter, but also for gluing or laminating paper, glitter and backing layers to each sheet of card stock. The colors of this box…

Pros
  • Paper
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
