Printworks Pastel Multipurpose Paper, 8.5 x 11 Inch, 20-Pound, 30% Recycled, 100 Sheets (00577)

Paper quality and colours are exceptional.We used a strip shredder to shred these papers for use as basket filler in donation baskets we were assembling.​Although it is a little stiffer than the actual pre-shredded filler ( we scrunched it up a few times), it is much more cost efficient to do this than purchase the outrageously priced basket filler.​Since it held up so well to being strip shredded ( no tearing) we could see that it is a firm paper that would be easy to use for printing.​The colours are rich and vibrant.​We even did a 'water' thumb print test to see if the pages faded or would bleed ink.​Nothing noticeable happened so we think it would also hold printer ink without smearing.

This was an awesome add on item. Just what I was searching for, but could not find in local stores.I wanted colored note squares for my gratitude jar project, but didn't want sticky notes. Cutting these into squares was an easy task.I also used this package (and a second package of this brand of colored paper) to make larger confetti squares. We easily stuffed them into balloons. We popped them to reveal special confetti sprinkle surprise for the kids, and it turned out amazing 😍. Super easy to just sweep up.I'm using these for all kinds of Arts & Crafts.

But I think it's a little bit expensive. Considering its price, I hope it has more papers, around 10~20%.

These four pale coloured pastel shades are absolutely perfect for what I was hoping for. They look gorgeous and add life to bland white sheets. Highly recommended!
