This is a simple green paper. It has good edges doesn't rip easily but it is fairly easy to fold. We used it for a leaf origami project. We used one square *8.5x8.5 and it was nice and square. The surface is not fuzzy like some papers it is soft and we used a variety of pens including colored sharpies and there wasn't bleeding. For the price it is a good deal. It isn't boutique paper but it isn't cheap copy paper either. I wish I could find thinner paper in colors but it seems that is all they had.It worked for us. I look forward to more colors in brighter tones and for thinner needs.
I LOVE the colors these come in. They worked well to print front covers for a project. I've used them for multiple projects over the years. They work well and are okay priced normally but bought them with a coupon and got them for FREE! Too bad I could only score one. Darn limits!!! I'd LOVE for these to go on sale more often so I can stock up!
Being retired I do not use the quantities of office materals I once did but still have uses for volunteer work committees etc. Colored paper is very useful but no longer something I would buy a ream of each color.
i love pink so it was a no brainer when it came time to prepare my new monthly calendar for my small business. i had been using plain white paper with black ink and decided my clients might be rather attracted to the pale pink calendar! boy was i right.so many positive comments on the simple change i'd made! the paper cut very nicely leaving sharp edges and at each fold the crease was sharp and clean the ink set well on the paper there was no bleeding or smearing. i definitely was feeling "in the pink" with the results!
