I use this paper for almost all the art and craft projects where white card stock is needed. Making personal journals/books; pen and ink work; pop-up greeting cards; die cuts using a Sizzix machine; making decorative gift boxes. It cuts beautifully with punches, a guillotine paper cutter, scissors and xacto knives. The paper take many kinds of ink/dyes for a variety of pens, very well - no bleeding. The paper is smooth, but still feels like "real" paper - a very nice hand to it. The paper runs easily through my small laser printer at home - I just set the printer to "Thickest" paper. I usually use white, just because of the projects i do, but the other colors I've tried are this quality, too. My recommendation to the company is to develop brighter card stock colors. Time to move on from pastels!! Also, I checked "No" on the good value question because the price skyrockets when ordering 8.5 x 14 paper or larger. But otherwise it is a good value for the quality. Enjoy!!
