i make my own cards and also scrapbook i use the paper for printing sentiments and sometimes for printing pictures. it absorbs the colored ink well and keaves a nice look onthe cards or in the scrapbooks
In our office we use this paper for all our printing and copy needs and it performs beautifully. The results look great on the page and we don't have the problems with jamming that we've experience with other brands. We don't have a color printer right now but I wouldn't hesitate to use this paper for that as well.
This paper is bright and durable for an all-purpose paper. I'm almost tempted to save it for special occasions and find some other "cheaper" paper for every-day use. I got it with a rebate deal which I applied for online. What a breeze it is to do it that way! I generally hate rebates because I have to fill out the forms make copies find an envelope stamp and get it to the Post Office. Thank you Staples for making the online option available!!
