FAQs

What is the exact size of the cards?

The blank double cards measure 10.5 x 15 cm.

What is the weight of the cardstock and envelopes?

The cards are made from 210g cardstock, and the matching envelopes are 120g.

Can I print on these cards using my home printer?

The cardstock is quite thick (210g). While some printers can handle this weight, it's recommended to check your printer's specifications and perform a test print first.

What type of closure do the envelopes have?

The envelopes feature a traditional gummed closure that requires moisture to seal.

Are these cards suitable for wet media like watercolors?

The 210g cardstock offers some resistance to moisture, but heavy applications of wet media like watercolor may cause warping. It's best to use lighter washes or test your technique first.

What creative methods work best with these cards?

They are highly versatile and work well with pens, markers, stamps, stickers, light embellishments, and dry media like colored pencils or pastels.

How are the sets packaged?

The product is available in sets of 6 (meaning 6 cards and 6 envelopes per package).

Troubleshooting

Ink bleeding or feathering

Use pens or markers with finer tips. Consider applying a sealant or primer to the cardstock before coloring if using heavily alcohol-based markers. Test your chosen medium on a scrap piece first.

Envelope flap not sealing properly

Ensure the gummed edge is adequately moistened. A slightly damp sponge or envelope moistener works best. Avoid over-soaking the paper.

Cardstock warping after applying media

Limit the use of excessive moisture (e.g., heavy watercolor washes). Work in thin layers and allow adequate drying time. Consider using a heavier paper if extensive wet media is planned.

Stamps not transferring clearly

Ensure your stamp is clean and inked evenly. Use a good quality ink pad suitable for the cardstock's surface. Press firmly and evenly when stamping.
