Has anyone used this paper for stamping with La Blanche stamps? Is it really smooth?

I used some stamps on it (although I don't know what La Blanche are). It IS fairly smooth, no rough tooth. Its essentially printer paper but cardstock weight. I would add that it is not glossy either.

its fine glitter. you could try for stamp embossing, but i think you would be wasting whatever glitter you use.

I use this paper all the time. I make a calendar each each and use this paper. It isn't thick like card stock, but it thicker than average paper. You would be wise to mount the print before you frame it, the paper can curve due to environmental conditions (humidity etc). But it is nice paper. I also have the same printer, so you are in good shape.

I do and I haven't had a problem. If your nail polish is basically opaque in 1 coat it should work for stamping.

Entirely my opinion from testing and experience, I like paper with some weight to it such as Bristol,vellum Bristol, watercolor, or for mix media or dry medium. But try any paper your curious to try it on, it might be different for you. How you blend/use the markers is a definite factor. For example, I can use high quality paper but if I don't understand how to blend/use the markers, it'll still come out bad. Hope that helps!

I haven't tried, but I doubt it, because it runs thin. You may want to use something like OPI quality for stamping, since they are thicker, and they are not opaque, very glossy.

I printed an entire color photo book with this paper. I love it. Since its laser, there wouldn't be any bleed anyway. Toner is basically dry.

Yes! I've used multiple types of card stock and it prints great! The cardstock is a little curved after being printed on but otherwise it's perfect.

Smooth is not something I would associate with linen. In fact I do not dry mine in the dyer so they do have an even more textued feel.As Michelene mentions her friend from the Netherlands, I also have decades old linen sheets from my great, great grandparents from France. These are smoother than my recent purchases, I still like the feel of some texture and this keeps them cooler in the summer.

I ordered this paper because it bleeds on other papers (for crafting and card making). The bleeding color is lighter than the paper, but, so far, hasn't faded at all.

Yes, this is a great paper to start with! There are higher quality watercolor papers available, but this paper is just fine for the beginner.

It does work, however you will need to mix it with a clear embossing powder. It sounds like a pain, but it really isn't. You can get a large bottle of ultra thick clear powder and mix it with these pigment powders and have beautiful results. I have done it myself. I bought this set mistaking them for embossing powders. So with some experimenting, I found you can create beautiful embossing in these great colors. I purchased a set of clear screw top containers to store the mixed powders. I use tiny spoons to scoop the powders and stir. I am still experimenting, but I mix about 2 scoops of clear powder to 1 scoop of the pigment powder, stamp my image, sprinkle my mixture, add some heat and make terrific looking images. These pigments are extremely fine and powdery, so make sure the paper you stamp is static free by using a dryer sheet or one of those special stamping bags to wipe your paper before stamping. If you have used the right mix, you will not have any left over residue and will be able to dump the extra powder back in the container.

I have successfully done this, you have to make sure and not use a lot of ink, I lightly blot the stamp on a paper towel to remove excess ink. I also have used it by mixing powdered color with a little vodka which dissipates quickly. The scope for uses of this paper is only left up to the imagination. You can do what I do, I keep extra and all my scraps for trying new ideas. Have fun! NOTE: Stamp directly, firmly and quickly lift off stamp.

If you are asking if this paper is good quality, the answer is yes. I find it the best for my photos. I use the Canon Pixma 6220 and 6500. The paper is 4x6. Not sure if you are purchasing paper or a printer? I am unfamiliar with the Selphy.

Yes, you'll be very pleased! It's very quick and colorless....I have used it with tissue paper and vellum. I would apply only a small dot to adhere the leaves and 'see' if its enough. Less is more!

To me it is exceptionally smooth. It's not scratchy like other pens I've used.

I've found that they dry pretty fast, almost instantly. It also depends on the type of paper you use. I haven't try mixing colours yet :-)
