5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely inexpensive paper for dry media--excellent for printing out coloring sheets
First of all, I want to point out that I received the paper with the wrapping pretty much ripped open, and the whole pack just thrown in the box that way. Because of this, some of the paper was not only bent at the corners, but actually dirty, so had to be thrown away. I was able to salvage some damaged pieces to use as scratch paper, and most of the package was okay, so I didn't bother to try to return it. I believe I also got this at a good price, so overall, I was a bit irritated, but not terribly unhappy. I also wanted a white paper that was not leaning into cream or ivory, and the paper is a soft, but definite white that should show off colors to their advantage.Update: I reordered this paper, and thankfully, it arrived in good condition this time. So I'm giving back a star.The paper itself is vellum bristol cardstock. Let me explain what this is since "vellum", "bristol", and "cardstock" are all terms referring to different types of paper than what "vellum bristol cardstock" is. That is why you have customers complaining that the paper is NOT this or that. It is, and it isn't.This particular paper is meant to go through inkjet printers, and while every printer can be different on what it can and can't handle, this should work on most home printers. Just for reference, I have a HP Envy Photo 6255.The paper is heavier than typical copy paper. Despite being labeled 80lb paper, it is actually lighter than what people normally think of as cardstock. Instead of going by the "lb" , look at gsm for better idea of how heavy or thick a paper is. Bristol Vellum Cardstock is more like medium weight drawing paper with a bit of tooth on the surface making it ideal for colored and graphite pencils (not so much for wet media, but gel pens tend to do okay on it).Bristol paper (not bristol vellum) is notably a very smooth drawing paper that can come in various weights, but is kind of light fancy cardstock. Vellum is translucent paper that traditionally was made from animal membranes--a similar to parchment (I don't think most vellum is animal-based anymore unless you buy it from a specialty art or stationery shop, and it tends to be expensive). This paper is not translucent, but if you use a lightboard, you should be able to use it for tracing if you need to.So, basically--this is vellum bristol cardstock, a medium-weight toothy paper suited for inkjet printing and dry media art. This would be an excellent paper for pencil artists to practice their techniques on before they go on to their more high-end art papers. If you mess up a couple of sheets, you don't feel nearly as bad as when you mess up paper from a 15 sheet pad that cost you $30.I have membership in a couple of coloring websites where I get a lot of printable downloads, so I use this paper, along with lightweight watercolor paper, to run off my sheets. I have also used this paper for making cards, and it does work fine for that, but again---it is not like the lightweight cardboard type of paper people generally think of as cardstock.Hopefully I've clarified this.I would also like to stress that customers should check the specifications on their home printers to see if the printer can even handle this kind of paper. If your copies are printing out crooked, or smudged, it might have more to do with your particular printer.Make sure you understand not only the terms describing the paper type and finish, but go more by the gsm than lb weight. Depending on the type of paper, and the manufacturer, there could be a LOT of differences involved. Usually a 65 lb cardstock is actually heavier than a 67 lb vellum bristol cardstock. Go figure.Not every media (or every colored pencil, for that matter) does well on this type of "toothy" paper. Depends on your technique and your particular media.Cardstock, however heavy, is NOT a real substitute for watercolor paper. I've used gouache and some watercolor pencil on this paper with success, but that's because a bit of wrinkling does not bother me, and I controlled the amount of water I used very carefully. You can try treating the paper with gesso or watercolor ground, but I haven't tried this, so I can't say how this would work.For artists who really need to do a lot of erasing, blending, scrubbing, whatever, save yourself some frustration and wasted time and money, and just buckle down and buy proper paper or board.
5.0 out of 5 stars Colored Pencil Comparison: this paper vs 67 pd. Bristol Vellum & 80 pd Hammermill Premium Copy Paper
I am an avid colorist. I use colored pencils to color. As a hobbyist, I didn't want to color in some of the books I had purchased because I was still learning so much and wanted to practice. I started to copy my books and after several different types and weights of paper, I ended up preferring this paper to any of the others I had tried. It was superior to the paper in the coloring books 99 percent of the time. I wanted a paper which you could erase where necessary without destroying all the tooth of the paper. While I now try to use only the Faber Castell box that lifts the pigment off the page, I also have a Tombow eraser and an electric one which allows me to erase a fine detail. I also wanted a paper that you could apply many layers of pencil to as a beginner I was always having to add color to get the desired result.Recently I had a book which I did color in as I knew I wasn't crazy about the images and would never want to repeat them. That book had a slicker paper and I did like it both in terms of application of the pencil and the end result. So I purchased two other papers to compare to this one to see what difference the paper actually makes.I purchased a really bright white paper of the same weight as this, the Hammermill Premium Color Copy 80 pound paper as well as the Exact Neehan Bristol Vellum in a 67 pound weight. This review compares the three papers for colored pencil purposes.Keeping in mind that I am a hobbyist, not an artist, I colored the same page from Wild Soul book by Grazio Salvo. I used primarily the Lyra Rembrant polycolor oil pencil, with a few Tombow Irojitens and Prismacolor Verithins which are both wax based. I used the same pencil colors and tried to make everything the same in coloring the three different papers. I was truly surprised at the outcome.In all but two areas this paper was hands down the best paper for colored pencils. The Hammermill was the brightest white. This paper jammed in my printer and the other two did not. Otherwise in all comparisons I would recommend this paper. In the photo showing all three, this paper is first, followed by the 67 pound Neeham Bristol Vellum, with the Hammermill paper shown last. I did identify the papers in the margin as well as drawing lines to show where I used different ways to blend.Although the background had the same number of layers applied in a cross hatch with a single blue pencil, it appeared deeper and darker blue in this paper than in the other two. The Hammermill slick finished paper just didn't accept as many layers of color. (I actually added two more layers with that paper for a total of 8 layers!) There wasn't a huge difference between the 67 pound Bristol vellum and this bristol vellum so if money is a factor the 67 pound is obviously less expensive. As I look at the outcome on this paper I see numerous places where I should go back to adjust the color. With this heavier weight, I can easily do so.In the background I also tried three different blending techniques, Gamisol, Caran d'Ache full blender pencil and a white colored Lyra pencil. The Gamisol (oderless mineral spirits) had the largest area in front of the women's head to the top of page. Because this paper is thicker I didn't have to worry as much about the liquid blender. It blended very well with this method on this paper. With the Hammermill, I ended up with a bunch of pigment on the end of my qtip, so instead of blending I was removing! The bottom corner under the tiger's nose was not blended at all. The area in front of the tiger's nose was blended with a white Lyra pencil. It did lighten the color slightly when blending. The best result was behind the women's head where I used a Caran 'd Ache full color blending pencil. This pencil actually feels like you are putting down wax while blending. The result was to eliminate the pencil lines and get a deep blended blue color, that fully saturated the paper.While there were significant differences between the Bristol Vellum papers and the Hammermill papers, the difference between the two Bristol Vellum papers was fairly minimal. As this paper was my first and the other Bristol Vellum my third coloring of the same image I would expect improvement even in such a short rushed period of time. That was in fact the case, but the improvement had nothing to do with the paper only the person using the paper!Even with the occasional jamming issue I really love this paper. I have copied over 450 pages to copy at this point. (I am on my second ream and about half of it is gone.) As I am making these copies to practice, I do copy on both sides of the paper. All three papers performed well in copying on both sides.I would recommend you try a variety of papers if possible as much of this may be merely personal preference. From my point of view using this paper has only made me more critical of the paper used in most adult coloring books. For 250 sheets the price is very fair. This paper was less expensive than other identical paper made by other manufacturers. Without question this paper will be my first choice when coping images to color with colored pencil. (I would also think this paper would be preferable for wetter mediums, watercolor or marker, as it is thicker and will not bleed through as easily. Because it has more tooth or texture, I would think it would be better in that regard the slicker paper of equal weight.)
5.0 out of 5 stars Very happy with this product
This product had the perfect texture that I was looking for. It was easy to use and great value for my money. It was the size I was looking for so it performed well. The size and brightness of it was what I was hoping for
5.0 out of 5 stars Cardstock
Great and we use it all the time at school
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Paper and Even Better Merchant!
This paper is a joy to work with! Lots of tooth which is great for my color pencil artwork. I can't say enough good things about this merchant! Somehow the post office delivered my order to the wrong address even though all of the paperwork was correct. I contacted this merchant and they immediately took steps to rectify the situation by shipping a replacement order rather than waiting for the post office to straighten out their error. I will continue to buy from them and you would be wise to do business with them as well.
Good Vellum Paper
It arrived undamaged, paper works great for printing coloring pages and plenty of tooth to lay color down. Works as intended.
Really good paper on my Epsom printer
I’m so glad I found this paper for every day use to print my digital papers.
Tal cual lo que decía
Excelente calidad, justo lo que esperaba
Craziest buy
Never would I imagine to buy white paper just shipped from the US. But really can't find nice thick affordable paper like these in stores for my projects.
Love it.
Great paper for coloured pencils. Great tooth.
