FAQs

What age group is this card best suited for?

This card is suitable for a wide range of ages, from toddlers with supervision to older children and even adults for craft projects. Its ease of use makes it particularly accessible for younger crafters.

Can I use paint on this card?

While primarily designed for pens, chalk, and cutting, light applications of certain paints (like tempera or acrylics) can be used. However, be mindful that the medium weight might warp with excessive water-based paint. Test on a scrap piece first.

How many sheets are in a pack?

Each pack contains 15 sheets of A4 black activity craft card.

Is this card suitable for printing?

This card is generally not recommended for standard home inkjet or laser printers due to its weight and texture, which can cause jamming or poor print quality. It's best used for manual crafting.

Can I use this for scrapbooking?

Yes, it can be used as a background page in scrapbooking, especially for themes that benefit from a dark backdrop or for highlighting lighter elements.

What is the weight of the card?

The product description states it is a medium weight card, suitable for general crafting purposes.

Troubleshooting

Pens not showing up well on black card

Use metallic, neon, or white-based pens specifically designed for dark surfaces. Ensure the pen tip is clean and ink flow is adequate.

Cardstock is tearing when cut

Use a sharp craft knife or appropriate scissors for cardstock. If using scissors, make slow, deliberate cuts. Ensure the card isn't being over-folded.

Chalk smudging easily

Allow chalk drawings to dry completely. A light spray of fixative (suitable for chalk and paper, with adult supervision) can help prevent smudging, though test on a scrap piece first.
