Review on Crayola Cardstock Paper: Vibrant Colored Cardstock, Pack of 25 Sheets by Kelly Caballes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, bright colors.

Didn't know what to expect from this - I make handmade greeting cards and use a lot of designer paper wrap from various 'premium' lines so I thought it was a much lower quality. I'm happy to say I was wrong. No, it's not exactly the same as the more expensive paper bags, but it's MUCH nicer than I expected. The colors are bold and each side has a different design (single-sided, printed on one side only, reverse side is white). I use it for some fairly simple "everyday" postcard designs - a simple matte front, a smaller matte backlight, and a tonal label decorated with a ribbon/bow or a small multi-layered flower or butterfly. It's easy to put together and those bright colors make it really easy for me to create a beautifully coordinated set. My cards are 4.25" x 5.5" - this paper is 9" x 12" - so I can get at least 4 cards out of each sheet. I wish they offered other packages - maybe pastels or neutrals with similar patterns. Very pretty and definitely a good deal for under five bucks.

Pros
  • ACID FREE PAPER: Keeps precious memories safe on scrapbooking pages.
