Thank you so much for sharing these tips and your knowledge. I'm exploring greeting card printing of my equine fine art as i have just bought a new canon pro-300 printer. My images are usually printed on 310 gsm german etching paper so i didn't want to go with gloss for the cards. The matt card you suggest looks perfect for the job. So glad i stumbles upon your utube channel x
Can you tell me when using the double sided matt photo paper if the print is water resistant, or not easily marked with fingers. Also can the inside of the card take all pen types when writing a message inside. Thank you in advance! all the best.
The matt is not water resistant compared to the gloss. Also, the gloss cannot take all ink types on the inside. I have a video coming up that goes into details of both of this, and suggests an alternative!
It is good, but for photos I would recommend a gloss. Paper cutz have an awesome one! Stay tuned for a video showing off a few of their different card finishes.
I’ve been trying ( and wasting) lots of card for my new printer so when I found this video, I was so pleased. I’m going to buy some now. Thank you.
I'm so glad you found it helpful! 💜

Hello, Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I would like to know how you protect your cards when they have a matte finish?
Hi there, thank you for your comment. I actually don't finish the matte card with anything. The only issue to the print would be if it was soaked.

Could you please share the settings you use for your cannon printing I have the same printer but not sure if I got the settings right
Have a look at my older videos as I share the exact canon printer settings I use.
Hello Danielle, is this card also good for photographs?
