Parchment Paper

What can you do with parchment paper?

You can embellish, perforate, stipple, cut, print on and colour parchment. Parchment craft has been around for many years, originally used to create religious devotional cards and more recently it has been used for regular greeting cards, certificates and wedding stationery. With careful perforating you can even make parchment paper appear like lace! It's an entire art in itself!

The parchment we have on special offer at the moment is 145gsm in a natural colour, perfect for card making projects, calligraphy and great for die cutting, like Sylvia, our designer has done here with this mistletoe (I know, bit early for Christmas but us crafters have to be ready!) Sylvia told us she thinks the parchment will be ideal for vintage style crafts.

For me, white linen is a must, closely followed by pearlescent card.

Pearlescent seems to be good for lots of different uses, but I'm still experimenting so have not really got favourite at the minute.

Papermill hammered white is my favourite but I would certainly like to try card making/scrapbooking using the parchment paper.

I love, love, love your white and ivory linen card. Never use anything else. I can print on it and it die cuts beautifully. It looks and feels so elegant especially when teamed with your linen paper for my inserts. I couldn't be without it.

Pure white pearlised card (and plain white card) would top my list as the type of card I tend to use most often as it is so versatile - fingers crossed.

I love the pearlescent and linen card. I have tried my hand at the parchment designs a few years ago but never stuck with it, maybe its time I had another go as the end results are fantastic.

Linen white or ivory for the wedding stationery I make. This is the go to card for invitations. Clients have all commented on how smooth to the touch it is.
