Is this suitable for young children?

Troubleshooting

Card stock bends or warps when using glue.

Use a light, thin layer of adhesive rather than thick globs. Consider using double-sided tape or adhesive dots instead of wet glues.

Creases are not sharp when folding.

Use a scoring board or the back of a butter knife to score the fold line before bending the card.

Markers bleed through the paper.

This card stock is designed for standard crafting. Use alcohol-based markers with a protective sheet underneath or stick to fine-liner pens and colored pencils.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Consistent and easy-to-use texture for cutting and folding
  • Attractive pastel palette enhances decorative appeal
  • Ideal A5 size reduces the need for excessive trimming
  • Excellent value with 30 sheets per pack

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty structural model making
  • May not hold up to heavy, wet-based media like thick acrylics
  • Size is limited to A5, requiring larger sheets for bigger projects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your Tallon A5 Pastel Card Sheets, store them in a cool, dry place to prevent humidity-related warping. For best results when folding, use a bone folder or a scoring tool to ensure a sharp, clean line. If you are using these sheets with electronic cutting machines, ensure your blade settings are adjusted for light-to-medium weight cardstock to avoid tearing. For markers or pens, test a small corner of the scrap material first to ensure the ink does not bleed through. To preserve the color vibrancy, avoid long-term exposure to direct sunlight.
