Specialty Paper- Texture, Weight & Finish

Will the texture make the papers difficult to print?

That depends on the type of printing, equipment and ink being used. If you are having the papers printed using conventional methods, such as offset, engraving or letterpress there should be no issues what-so-ever. The odds of an issue will be greater if your plans are to inkjet or laser print on the papers. Texture, as well as weight, are factors in the end results. Unless you have previous experience printing on these textures we would recommend ordering samples so you can test first. Further, if your plans are to print using an outside source we recommend discussing the project first with your printer.

Are your textured cardstock papers heavy?

Yes they are! The paper weight of the cardstocks do vary by the brand. For instance Vice Versa textures are 111lb - 300gsm & Japanese Linen is a 90lb - 243gsm cardstock. Since both are substantial in weight the main deciding factor on which to purchase would be based on color and the textured pattern.

Is textured cardstock suitable for scrapbooking?

They sure are! Textured cardstocks add a visual and tactile dimension to any type of project including scrapbooking. Its easy to create with our array of papers colors, brands and textures.
