Strathmore Cards & Envelopes 3.5X4.875 10/Pkg-Watercolor -105023

Easy to use, nice mailing size, thick paper that holds up to getting very wet with paints. I have mailed many of these postcards out to friends around the world. They look good and the colors are well-represented.

The paper is beautiful. Perfect for watercolor, markers or pen and ink. I use it to make greeting cards.

Ordered this for my daughters travel art kit. Fit perfectly with the small watercolor kit.

They were great! exactly what I wanted.

I use these cards for sending formal or bereavement messages where an image might not be appropriate. Theyre elegant because the paper is of such high quality and I think they make an impression in their simplicity. I cant stress enough how impressive the paper is for the price.

Nothing not to love!

I’ll use for my Christmas cards.

I enjoy using these watercolor cards. I do a lot of watercolor, and regular card stock does not handle the water well. But these cards are sturdy and handle the water great. I love the size as well because they offer opportunities for wider paintings. They also make unique cards to send.

I recently took up watercolor painting and thought it would be fun to make my own greeting cards for birthdays etc. This was my first one in the photo, and its pretty easy to fill this space with something pretty. I thought that the paper weight was good. I did not put a ton of water on the paper but it did hold up well. The inside and outside are the same so you could paint something inside too. I just used a marker to write my message inside but in the future might paint a little something inside and out, or even on the back. The envelopes are just standard. It would be nice if they were colored, but I can live with white envelopes. I might try some different sizes next time. I just got a set of 10 of these to see how I would like them and I really love them. Thanks for reading my review

. I have painted on more than 200 Strathmore watercolor cards. The cards now are of inferior quality. They do not hold water and they buckle. Paint looks completely flat. I have reached out to Strathmore with no reply. Unfortunately, I don’t have a better card to recommend. I have to cut my own now from better paper. Read some reviews. If the artist used Strathmore cards in the past, they likely note that the quality is different and worseY
