60lb Pecos River Gloss - Item # 8461
I have used this paper the last two years to print our Christmas cards, birthday cards and other occasion cards and have been totally pleased with the results. On a single 8.5" x 11" sheet I produce two cards, photos on the glossy side and text on the other that result in cards that fold in half and fit into 4-3/8" x 5-3/4" envelopes. Makes for a very economical and great looking product.

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

"I use Ultra Pro Satin. It's my top choice for color, clarity, durability, and longevity. I also love the bright whites of Arctic Polar Satin. And my prints' colors are spot-on using Red River Paper's color profiles."

Bringing People Together One Card at a Time

Robert A Hasse, Apr 08, 2026

For the last two years I have been printing wildlife greeting cards and giving them to people. I ask them to think of someone that had an impact on their life and have not seen in a long time. Try to find their address and send them this card with a short note, asking them to give you a call. I have given away over 500 cards in the last couple years. Your greeting card stock is fantastic and the envelopes and accessories makes it easy. People are amazed at the quality that I achieve in printing the cards, and your paper is an important part of it. I tell people that I am trying to bring people together one card at a time. One of the most rewarding things that I have done with my photography.
