160# Stamp & Watercolor Cardstock (10 sheets)

Description

REVIEW OF USING WITH WATERCOLORS:
“The 160# holds up relatively well with watercolor. The biggest advantage is that you can stamp a good clear image on it. I have trouble often with getting detailed images onto watercolor paper. In those instances, I use regular cardstock and Copic markers.  The 160# warps less than the watercolor paper. But, it holds the water for a long time. It took over 6 hours to dry one day, and I finally used the hair dryer on it. The biggest disadvantage for me is that I like to use wet on wet technique for skies and water. The 160# paper, once you put the paint on, that is it. You cannot easily blend it or even remove like on watercolor. However, I have modified my technique a bit and am still able to get the look I want, by slowly building up color. I like it very much, and will use it because it gives me a clear imprint of the image.”
