A great start
Entering into the arena of photographic printing, I had heard people reference their experiences with Red River Paper. I ordered their sample kits and found the ordering process easy to navigate. The sample kits arrived and each came with a letter from Drew. Calibrated the monitor, loaded the ICC profiles and chose 2 reference photographs to use as base line references. The varying finishes, textures and colour differences these have been used to create a personal catalog for future ordering.
I would not hesitate to recommend Red River Paper to anyone after this first experience

Excellent greeting cards

I’ve been using your product for many years now to make greeting cards from my water colors. I used an Epson stylist pro R2000 because your company recommended it years ago, it finally stopped working recently so I tried my less expensive printer Epson ET 2800 to my surprise this printer on your paper did an excellent job, I no longer think it was the printer make great cards but your wonderful paper!! Thank you! It’s great doing business all these years!

60# Pecos Gloss 7”x10” greeting card
Fran Bliek
01/21/2023
I am an artist and have used 60# Pecos gloss greeting card stock for many years to make cards from images of my paintings. The quality of the photo is excellent and the ability to write messages on the matte paper on the inside of the scored card makes these an excellent product for my consignment sales and for my own personal use. Highly recommend!

Unique Cards for Friends and Family
Charles
11/01/2022
I've used the 60lb. Pecos River Gloss greeting card stock for several years now to create unique cards for all kinds of occasions with my personal photography. A hand-written note on the inside makes each card personal and one-of-a-kind. Which I hope makes the sentiment much more meaningful than something from Hallmark®. Also makes it more convenient than going to the store to get a card.

Excellent Stock
Eric Hemmer

This is a great product. I purchased the 7 x 10 gloss cards and love the weight of it and the pre-scored fold make it easy to finish.
I was disappointed that the article on printing borderless cards with this card using an Epson printer is not completely accurate. The XP-15000 does not support either 7 nor 10 inch paper width when defining a custom borderless size. I ended up adding a small border on my cards and they still look great.
I won't hold the article error against my review however and do recommend the product

Perfect for many of my Nature Note Cards
Pete Rose

I find this paper to be perfect for many of my Nature Note Cards. I sell them at Art Shows, and they are a big hit. The Glossy works well for sharp crisp photos. For my more artistic soft photos I use the linen paper and it also is a great hit with my customers.

I have created "greeting" cards for an astonishing variety of cards - Family, Business, Marketing, Condolence, Friends, Neighbors, Births, Deaths, Promotions....... I could go on and on. Thing is..... I am a perfectionist with the little bit of art I can do and this paper always made me look good and has never let me down.
