Amazing and Interesting.

   So, I will continue from the headline. The paper look amazing, but it is not parchment. It is the weight and texture of copy paper printed to look like old parchment, or coffee and tea dyed paper. Please be aware of this before you buy because if you are expecting a paper with the crunch and texture of coffee dyed, this isn't it. And it does not have a parchment like surface, it just looks like it.

   I bought this paper because I make journals. I do coffee and tea dye paper for my journals, as well as dye paper with food coloring, and Rit dye, and spinach and onion water. But when I dye my copy paper it changes the texture of the paper and causes it to get very wrinkled. I also iron my papers, but even after I iron them I do not feel like I should run them through my son in laws copy machines to print on them. But with this paper I have no problems running it through the copy paper because it is the same weight and texture as any other copy paper. I am sure as I get to using more of it I will find lots of other things to do with this beautiful paper. But for now it is great for printing vintage clip art on, and it make very pretty pages in a journal if you decide you want a vintage look with a lot less work. And I use it to make envelopes for my vintage look cards and to add to my journal pages. I don't have photos right not, but I will post some later. I am also sure adding some of these papers into my college mixed media will be great too.

   I think the price was very fair, and this paper came on the day I was told it would be delivered. I will order more of this paper in the future, perhaps in a larger amount.
