Kraft Paper – 50 Sheets 120 GSM Letter Sized Brown Stationery Paper for Arts, Crafts, and Office Use

I really like this kraft paper. I bought it to have an alternative substrate to work on - sometimes I get tired of working on the same white paper. I am making my own journals and plopped some of this into one of the journals I made. I found it to be an excellent alternative substrate to work on - not as flimsy as printer paper but not as hearty as watercolor paper. It warps when water or wet media is used but that doesn't bother me since I'm using this for journals and other practice pieces. I've used a wide range of media on this - chalk pastel pencils, ink, acrylic paint, watercolor, Inktense blocks and pencils, and marker. It has worked beautifully with all those things but it did buckle quite a bit with the watercolor. It also warped and buckled when I added minimal water to the chalk pastel pencils and Inktense blocks. However, there were no issues and it really worked well with all the dry techniques I used. I imagine this would work very well to print images on it. Stamped and embossed images showed up clearly and did not affect the paper.I really like this and will buy more when I run out. As long as your techniques won't be wet - and if they are you understand this paper isn't made to handle that sort of thing - I think you will also be happy with this paper. I love the feel of it. There is a tiny bit of tooth to it - it is not vellum smooth - which makes the materials really "grab" onto the paper. I love how all the media I tried shows up well on this paper. I have enjoyed working on this and find myself reaching for it time and time again.

After reading other reviews I was confused about what to expect in terms of thickness. I’m not a paper expert, but this paper is definitely thicker than 20# copy paper - in fact it’s like a very light cardstock. It would be super helpful if the info provided included this information, too.Which leads me to this: the paper comes in a fancy ziploc bag, with no manufacturers name. This could mean that the sellers are buying huge lots (perhaps of inconsistent thickness?) and repackaging them.And then there is the color. I’ll try and post a photo with this paper alongside some kraft cardstock I bought at Michaels (65# by Recollections.). This paper is lighter in color than the Michaels kraft paper (not that I personally see this as a problem, but others may.) This paper is more toward the yellow/tan/gold side rather than the darker brown kraft paper you may be expecting.I see this as a plus because the lighter color will make printing digital downloads for junk journals show up better than on the darker brown kraft paper (but I love that, too!)Hope this is helpful for crafters out there. Good luck with your projects.

I’m very satisfied with this paper. It’s not too thin and not too thick. It works well in my printer. I was a little disappointed that the color was not as dark as I’d hoped (I was wanting something more of the color of brown paper grocery bags) but I don’t consider that the fault of the seller since it’s hard to tell the exact color of something on a monitor. But just be aware if you’re wanting a more recycled brown paper look, this one is lighter than that.

It’s a nice quality and soft kraft paper.The product works well for printings such as labels and cover for documents. However, I personally think it’s not ideal for arts and crafts. The paper are thinner than what I expected. If you use glue or any fluid inks on it, it will get wet and wrinkles easily. Regular drawing with pen or (color) pencil are fine.

I really love this paper and have gone back and bought it a second time. (I'm sure a third and fourth are in my future.) Mainly I use it to create my own envelopes, especially for holiday or birthday cards. So far the paper has held up well!

I bought this paper to use for journaling and I was nervous about it not tearing very nicely but it’s perfect and I actually want to try printing on it. It’s a little more yellow than I expected if that makes sense? Like more yellow than I imagine a brown paper lunch bag to be, but I don’t mind in journaling because it’s usually getting written on or covered in something else. Great value :)

nothing really wrong this is paper except it is a better deal if you actually go to Hobby Lobby, Michaels of Joann. They have more paper for cheaper. Also. This is SUPER THIN!!!! Not sturdy at all. Just like thin white bible paper lolz

I didn’t realize how thin the paper would be but that’s probably my own fault for not reading details or understand paper specs. For those who may be interested to know, it’s not card-stock, it’s regular paper.
