FAQs

Are these cards printer-compatible?

While the cardstock is high quality, it is primarily designed for manual decoration. Always test a single sheet through your printer's manual feed tray if you intend to print text.

What is the weight of the cardstock?

The cards are 220gsm, providing a thick and professional feel, while the envelopes are 120gsm.

Are the materials safe for scrapbooking?

Yes, the cards and envelopes are acid and lignin-free, making them safe for archival scrapbooking and long-term storage.

How many cards come in a pack?

Each pack contains six individual cards and six matching envelopes.

Can I use watercolor paints on these cards?

While the cardstock is sturdy, it is not specifically treated as watercolor paper. Use only a minimal amount of water to avoid saturating the fibers.

Troubleshooting

Glue or adhesive showing through paper

Use a light layer of acid-free glue stick or double-sided adhesive tape instead of wet liquid glue.

Cards appearing slightly warped after decorating

Place the card under a heavy book for several hours once your embellishments are dry to flatten the fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, thick 220gsm cardstock
  • Acid and lignin-free for long-term preservation
  • Matching envelopes provided for a polished look
  • Excellent surface for diverse crafting techniques

Cons

  • Limited to six cards per pack
  • May require extra postage if heavily embellished
  • Not intended for inkjet or laser printing without testing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best results with your Creativ Company stationery, store the cards in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the paper fibers. If you are planning to write on the cards, use archival-quality pens to ensure your message remains crisp and legible for years to come. When attaching heavy embellishments, allow sufficient drying time for your adhesive before inserting the card into the matching 120gsm envelope to prevent snagging or damage.
