5.0 out of 5 stars The best card stock for ink jet printers, May 16, 2000

Without a doubt, this is the most impressive pre-packaged card stock on the market. I'm not quite sure why it's called "felt textured"--because it's not, really--but it's thick, luxurious stuff all the same. It has the feel of a rougher version of classic laid resume paper. It has a weight equal or surpassing cards you'd find at Hallmark (tm)--which is highly unusual among ink jet card stocks. Also, the texture is uniquely suited to ink jet printers; it really soaks up the colors.

The ivory color makes it perhaps unsuitable for realistic photo colors, but it makes it entirely the best choice for taking artistic license.

This is the stuff for making love notes for your significant other, cards you hope will go in someone's scrapbook, or even modern wedding invitations. Whatever task you set for it, this product will truly let you explore your creative side. The results you can achieve with this paper are simply stunning.

Wow, is this wonderful stuff. I've been making all our cards for some time now usually on quarter fold stock. I wanted something more professional looking for this year and based on another review decided to try this paper. What a difference. The card stock is very heavy, with a distinct ivory tone and textured feel. On my printer, this coloration did not cause any distoration in picture colors. I printed a card with several pictures on it and the results were remarkable. I got many compliments from friends & family members on the results. The only difficulty I had was in feeding both the card stock & the envelopes due to my HP 882 printer. The printer is just marginally able to feed this type of heavy stock & required a monitor to sit there and carefully hand tweak to be sure that the printing went well. This is clearly not a failing of this paper, but a caution to other users to watch the feeding.

Love this stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars HP Greetings Are Excellent, October 28, 2002

I needed to print some wedding invitations, so I was looking for a very high-quality ink-jet card stock. HP to the rescue. The ivory tint and the textured surface lend the perfect hint of elegance, while not being overly expensive. The printed results are excellent. Just the right amount of ink absorption to produce professional results from a high-quality ink-jet printer.
Pros: Heavy stock for excellent feel and presentation, excellent ink absorption characteristics, ivory color for less "bright" results, textured for added elegance. Matching envelopes are included.
Cons: Heavy stock makes paper feeding more difficult on some printers, the pre-scoring is not centered; folds are not perfect halves (unless you prefer the offset fold, of course), HP logo is obvious; make sure you feed the stock in the correct direction or you will have the HP logo competing for attention with your artwork.
Overall this is a superior product and this stock helps produce beautiful results.
