Aurora paper for Postcards
www.SaltboxPost.etsy.com. When using the Aurora for postcards, my prints came out beautiful. Other papers of the same type did not stand up, take a look and see for yourself in my lil postcard shop.

Loving this paper for batik prints

Mary Jones, Jul 03, 2023 - https://mjonesartwork.wixsite.com/mary-jones-artwork

I am a batik artist and was accepted into a local galley. I needed some prints do I tried the sample pack and LOVE the Aurora White 250 paper. My prints feel so professional and the color and crispness is wonderful. Thank you, Red River Paper!

Blew me away!!

Elias Clark, Mar 21, 2023 - ko-fi.com/astr0punk/gallery

I have just recently gotten into printing my art and was recommended by so many sites that this paper is the best of the best. I previously tried using walmart generic paper and the colors came out so. dull and washed out that i was worried my printer was not as good or that my inks were already bad. But then i got my red river paper in and from out the gate, the difference in print quality was night and day. The colors were vibrant, the print quality was so hyper detailed and it felt like a whole new world was opened up to me. I'm so so satisfied with my purchase and this will certainly not be my last purchase from Red River. It still blows me away at the quality and how vibrant my art looks now.
If you were looking for a sign for whether or not the hype is merited, let this be your sign!
RED RIVER PAPER IS NO JOKE, THE BEST I'VE SEEN!!
