Parchment paper
« on: April 10, 2014, 01:18:26 PM »
I purchased Stratmore parchment paper from the store it is 60 pounds, acid-free has a calligraphy pen on the front page. And of course it blots. Wasting my money again on something that does not work. Anyone have luck with this paper?

I have used it but had to use powered sandarc to make it work. Good to keep around for when you run into problems

You will find patches on parchment paper that don't take ink well. It's the nature of the paper (I think - or at least has been in my experience).
