Great art paper for scrapbooks and notebooks

I use a lot of ink and other media and this paper holds up well and doesn't bleed. Sometimes it wobbles a little, but not much. It costs money. I love it.

Good for watercolors, bleeds on side with alcohol based markers

I really like this sketchbook. The paper is of surprisingly good quality and you can not only draw on it with pencil and pen, but much more. I've used watercolors, permanent markers, Sakura pens and markers, acrylic paints, calligraphy inks and pens, Copic markers and the paper hasn't fallen apart. As for bleeding, alcohol based markets will happen and you can paste something under the current page you are working on to prevent it from leaking onto the next page. It's also fairly durable, I had

Pros
  • Ideal for mixed media. While perfect for pencil sketching, this album also works well with markers, inks, pastels, colored pencils, colored pencils, charcoal, pastels, calligraphy, and zentangle. Even permanent markers won't show through! (Alcohol pencils and other "wet" pencils may bleed through.) Please note that the Sutter Lane Sketchbook is not intended to replace a Bristol board, watercolor board, or drawing paper (it is a sketchbook, after all), but you will be amazed at just how versatile paper is is.
Cons
  • Only available in black

Cheap and poor quality

I ordered this as one of my child's Christmas gifts as it was a good size to take home. For over $8, I was expecting a sketchbook with a nice cover and decent papers inside. When I received it, I found the sleeves made of thin paper that couldn't even stand the shaking during shipping and was quite wrinkled. Upon closer inspection, I can see that the cover was scratched and the edges frayed, as if the book had been pushed around a lot. I wasn't expecting a high end sketchbook but I was…

  • Made in USA. When you order today, your purchase is 100% guaranteed. Plus, you're protected by world-class customer service! This is the best gift for any artist in your life.
Cons
  • No performance

Excellent weight, size and design for magazine collages

I bought this sketchbook to use in my collages and I am very satisfied with the quality and design of this item. The pages have a comfortable weight and a pure white color. What I particularly like about this magazine is the spiral binding and page size. The spiral binding allows me to fold the magazine as I work one page at a time, which helps save space on my workspace. The page size is perfect for my magazine collages as most of my artwork is 8.5 x 11 inches. A magazine of this size is…

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Pages - No need to worry about repeated erasing or the usual hard pressure.
Cons
  • faint
