Southworth Blue Parchment Paper

Ordered two (2) 500 count boxes of the Southworth Parchment Specialty Paper. Package arrived safely, but come on Amazon...shipping department leaves a WHOLE LOT TO BE DESIRED! Only 3 of those Air Pillows on top to protect the shipment? WOW! Whoever does the shipping and handling should've put a few more around the sides and ends of the boxes enclosed in a larger shipping box. Fortunately, the paper was undamaged and very useable. The paper, which I've used before in different colors, is being used for my daughters Wedding Programs and will surely add a touch of class to the Wedding itself. Yes, the paper will be Thermo Engraved and the samples I've seen so far are Excellent! If one is using this for a flat-printed project on a Laser, or Inkjet printer, one-sided, or two, it is definitely worth the additional cost!

Used this to run a workshop on hand-binding books. These were for the inside pages. It was fine. I wanted something thicker but these still had a nice feel for handmade books. Seems like nice paper and good color.

One of my volunteer roles involves printing certificates for plant shows, and it uses every color of Southworth parchment paper that is still in stock for the different categories of certificates. They printed just fine on my Canon MegaTank G3270 Inkjet Printer. I printed 290 gray, 157 gold, 168 blue and 78 bronze certificates without smudging or bleed-through. Aside from the gray color, the other 500 packs will last for multiple years before I need to reorder them.

The paper came quickly and as described. It’s a very nice stock, texture and appearance. I’m quite pleased. I did, however, think it was a little pricey.

These are great for making certificates and specialty type awards or announcements. Pairs well with certificate folder and embossed award stickers. I work in adult education and even adults appreciate getting awards for successful completion so the idea of school awards is definitely not limited to school-aged children. Use in a Cannon and HP printer without problems using just the standard tray without manually feeding 1-by-1. The blue hue was a nice changeup for me since I traditionally have exclusively ordered the Ivory. This brand is one that I have used for several years and will likely continue to use.

I used this great parchment paper to create my Christmas cards this year. I was afraid that the paper might bleed through the dark blue inkjet ink - but it did not bleed. The paper is high quality 24 lb weight and made my cards such a great presentation this year. I would use this again in another color for spring or autumn. Buy with confidence here!

It is such a good price for so many pages of good paper. I used it to make my wedding announcements and they turned out just wonderfully. If you want a good parchment paper that is aesthetically pleasing as well as fun to touch (it has a unique texture), I'd suggest the Southworth Parchment paper. I don't know how I'll use the leftovers, but they WILL be used.

Great paper. Smudge free. Excellent for laser printer work. Looks and feels like very quality paper. True parchment look and feel. BUT, PLEASE, bring back the celery color!Pretty please???
