StrathmoreWatercolor Cards, 5x6.875 inches, 10 Pack, Envelopes Included - Custom Greeting Cards for Weddings, Events, Birthdays

Of course these cards are great for make-your-own cards with your own artwork.But I also find them wonderful for another use. The appropriate thing, according to etiquette books, when offering condolences. is a letter, not a Hallmark card. These serve admirably, in that they are just about the right size for handwritten condolences, the paper takes a variety of dark inks well from different pens, whether conventional or calligraphic, and the card has an elegant feel. It is also heavy enough to conceal easily an enclosure of "in lieu of flowers" currency, so the mailpiece is more likely to arrive intact. I generally like to put the card and enclosure within the supplied envelope and use a booklet envelope as a carrier envelope; this will just about come to one ounce, but the stamp itself may add just enough to raise the postage requirement - just depends, so weigh it if you do what I do. No carrier envelope, well within one ounce. BTW, currency has non-zero weight.Sorry to go on so about the practicalities of a less-pleasant exercise, but we all encounter these events, and anything that helps convey heartfelt sentiments gracefully at the right time (especially when at a long distance) is welcome. Hope this is helpful to some.

This paper is so good that it’s ruined me from using any other brand! I love the dimensions. The envelopes are even paintable so it adds an extra flare I love! The paper is strong, doesn’t pill, and really makes your pigment pop! This paper loves my Sakura watercolors. They’re made for each other🫶🏻

Perfect size, sturdy, no bleeding or buckling. I will buy again.

These were recommended by a watercolour teacher for a class we took. They were so nice I ordered more for future projects.

These are nice and I have used them alloy for wet on wet loose painting and they don’t warp as much as others…. Works best if you secure them with painters tape til they dry.

These cards work really well for watercolor. A good size and the paper is good quality. Takes paint well. There’s an envelope for each card. I like to paint up a batch of them to have on hand when I need a card. Good price for the cards and envelopes.

These blank cards are perfect for sketching or other crafts. I'm happy to have on hand for upcoming gifts.

This cards are great for watercolor and watercolor pencils

I painted Christmas cards

Love these for making cards

Everything is fine. Great delivery time. Beautiful cards, am VERY pleased.

I love these cards as they are a good watercolour paper, nice and heavy, and I can paint or collage to my heart’s content to make cards worth framing or saving.

My printer has been telling me that my ink is low but I’ve got over 30 more pages printed with this ink.
