New Products! & Customer’s work

Introducing 2 new products at CutCardStock:

Neenah Classic Linen PEARL Card Stock–This pearlescent Linen cardstock is available in the following colors:  WHITE PEARL 84# Cover and 115# Cover, NATURAL WHITE PEARL 84# Cover, and GOLD PEARL 84# Cover.  At this time we do not know alot about how this cardstock handles ink.  We did have one of our customers who is an invitation designer run a test on it .  This is what she said about printing on it using her high end Canon Inkjet Printer: “I also printed on the Neenah metallic.

Oddly, the white does not print or hold ink as good as the ivory & gold.  Very strange.  I will bring them for you to see.

They definitely have to DRY before they can be touched, but they absorb and dry much quicker than the Stardream.   The gold dried a lot slower, the same as Stardream, omething very odd I noticed!

Overall, I would say it is comparable to the Curious Iridescent quality.

They double print fairly well too if you let them dry first.

They are gorgeous, I will definitely try adding them to my upgrades for customers. “

  

One of our customers Sharon Hockinson from Spokane, Washington sent us some of her work using CutCardstock’s Greengrocer’s Brown Bag KRAFT Cardstock.  She writes: “I just got my GreenGrocer paper bag stock from you and am very excited to be working on gluing my photography to it.  This is what I have so far for an upcoming art show/fair.  Hope you enjoy.  

Description of work:  Photography.  I am trying to display my otherwise framed or matted photos in a new way, on greeting cards – but I also wanted to showcase recycling.  Here I have a photo of the group of my work I am putting on the cards and the single photo I have a close-up of was taken in our local Waste-To-Energy Plant.  I call it the “wall of garbage”.  It will soon be recycled into energy for our city and others.”

 

A special thank you to Sharon for taking the time to send us some of her work, she has a website be sure to check it out :  www.shockinson.com
