Strathmore Cards & Envelopes 3.5X4.875 10/Pkg-Watercolor -105023

OK for acrylic or marker paints. Too soft for watercolors.

Lots of practice before painting larger piece and I can mail these

Product is great! It arrived promptly & in super shape for me to use immediately. I am giving a workshop in creating artistic postcards, so this product is perfect. Thank You!

Buy them about three times a year and it’s worth every penny. I make my card for gifts

Im printing on these using a Canon Pro9000 Mark II. I used to glue glossy prints of my nature photos onto these cards, but now I prefer to print directly on them. Due to the rough texture, the images come out with a slightly soft look (a bit like a pencil drawing), which I find to be a lovely, artistic look. UPDATE (Dec. 20, 2022): Ive been getting lots of glowing compliments on my card photos this year. Of course thats partly a reflection of the photo I used, but this card stock definitely adds a classy, professional element.

I wanted these to make cards for friends birthdays and for family members who are ill. I do watercolor and these are perfect! These are unique, simple gifts that let family and friends know that you are thinking about them even if they are a great distance away! They also help me keep up a discipline of doing watercolor sketches on a regular basis. I plan to make an additional purchase soon.

Paper is sturdy and nice. Envelopes are a really nice paper as well.

Well made card stock that I’ve used for several months to create beautiful cards using watercolors. The paper is sturdy, wet on wet techniques work fine, and I’ve been very pleased with the results. They come with nicely made envelopes, also. I splurged and bought the pack of 100 and I’m going to use them to create Christmas cards.

Ordered this for my daughters travel art kit. Fit perfectly with the small watercolor kit.

First off, I wasnt aware that blank postcards were sold. I took a watercolor postcard class that offered different designs. These cards hold the paints beautifully without buckling, which I often find with watercolor paper products. In addition, they are a great value for the price. My postcards came out so pretty that I dont want to give them away!
