Colored Card Stock Paper

Colored card stock paper is a type of paper that’s thicker and more durable than the average printing paper. However, it is still thinner than paperboard or poster board, making it the perfect option for a wide variety of crafts and projects. It is also thin enough to go through a standard printer and thick enough to not be transparent or have markers leak through it.

Colored card stock paper is available in many different weights, but the most common weight is 65 pounds. The standard size is 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches long for everyday printing. Card stock paper is compatible with most inkjet and laser printers.

There are many card stock colors available, and packs are normally sold as assortments. Bright, neon assorted colors are often a popular choice for their eye-catching shades, but more muted pastel colors are also available. Most colored cardstock has a smooth, matte finish, but glitter and metallic finishes are also sold and are great for scrapbooking and adding a touch of fun to any project.

You can use colored card stock paper to add vibrancy to your next project. Teachers can use a mix of card stock colors for decorating classrooms or printing out important worksheets. Students can use it for school projects, like creating booklets, giving a presentation, organizing binders, or doing an art assignment. Colored cardstock paper is the perfect thickness for stationary if you want to create your own cards, and it’s also useful for scrapbooking or mounting photos in an album. It also can be used for creating eye-catching flyers for local events or community bulletin boards. It’s also great to keep around the house for an easy craft project for kids and adults alike. With a pack of colored card stock paper, some art and school markers, scissors, and glue, you can fill an entire afternoon with creative fun.
