SU! Shimmery White Paper

[thuillier]

What do you use this for? I always see it, but I don't know what to do with it.

Thanks!

It can be used in the same manner as any good white cardstock. It is really lovely. It makes a great base, is wonderful for doing light watercoloring and is particularly nice for winter and wedding cards.

I use it for everything, it's sooooooo gorgeous

[staramaze]

it's my favorite for watercoloring... takes water so nicely... no pilling or anything... plus it has that yummy shimmer!

It is just about the only white I use... It is absolutely beautiful. It has just enough shimmer to be beautiful without the glitz of glitter....

Honestly, this is one of those products that you have a hard time justifying at first, but you will be hard-pressed to find something negative to say once you have tried it one time. :mrgreen:

Welll, now I'm just going to have to buy some!

Ah gee, thanks for enabling me. I think. He he he. ;) Onto my wish list it goes...

You won't regret ordering the shimmery white. It's all I use. :mrgreen:

We are always glad to be of assistance! Everyone is right; it's fabulous stuff. Once you see it in person, you'll be glad you got it!

super helpful! thanks!

You can buy it by the ream very cheaply and actually even a bit more shimmery in 26 colors at Paper Zone. I go through a ream of the white about once a year.

Thank you for posting this and for all the responses. I wanted to use the Shimmery CS for my Christmas cards to watercolor on, but didn't know if it would take it well. Now I know and can't wait to make and post my Christmas cards!!

I got a Christmas card last year, where this was part of a background. It had been layered on top of a blue color...then the white was stamped with some tiny blue snow flakes...and large snowflakes had been cut out of the shimmery silver paper...

[Jovi]

It's the best shimmery paper... it's so pretty!

I had never order it before, until Britta (our super mod) sent me a really fun summery card using it... since then I LOVE the stuff. ;)

Don't forget to order the Shimmery Envelopes too!! Very elegant presentation.

It's great for several watercoloring techniques, and the BEST paper to use if you're going to color with markers.

It's absolutely beautiful, and it's very sturdy, not at all like Whisper White or Very Vanilla, though I love those, too!
