Has anyone used this product? It's a cool concept, but I haven't seen it in the store so I can't gauge the texture and thickness of the sheet. Plus it's really expensive just to order to see what it's like...ya know?


Thanks!

I'd like to see a LO using it. Sounds interesting.

If you mean acid or lignin free I wouls guess not. All wood contains lignin. BUT just put a coat af Royal Coat Satin Decoupage Finish - or any other acid free decoupage glue or likewise - and it will be acid/lignin free!! Will work with ordinary acrylic paint but then you'll loose the wood finish....

After watching the video, it looks very thin because the EK punch easily popped the shape out. And it embossed easily, so it must be thin and flexible. I've never noticed in the shop, so TFS!

I couldn't get the video to play at work. There's a block on YouTube...probably because of people like me who watch craft demonstrations instead of working! LOL


I wonder if it feels like wood. It's cool, but strange at the same time.

I saw some in Archiver's today, it's very thin and feels really cool! There was a bird that had been stamped & die cut out of it & attached w/pop dots so it stuck up a bit - very nice!

A little thicker than cardstock, not thicker than chipboard. I used some on a canvas that I did last weekend. Will try to get pics tomorrow.

It's like a thin veneer. I have some, but haven't used it yet. I heard mists work nicely on it, too!
