Paper weights are shown either in pounds (lb) or grams per square meter (g/m²). Examples from listings include 70 lb and 98 lb, and grammages such as 80, 110, and 220 g/m².
Blank note cards are typically offered as folded cards (horizontal or vertical folds) printed on cardstock with a matte finish. Boxed sets often include matching envelopes and a card box for storage.
Many blank stationery items use uncoated or plain paper surfaces for a natural writing or drawing feel. Some sketchbooks and pads advertise perforated sheets (easy clean tear-off). Descriptions may note whether a pad is uncoated, plain, or perforated—check individual product details for specifics.
Mixed-media and sketch pads are described as suitable for a range of dry and light-wash wet media, specifically listing watercolor paint, colored pencil, marker, pen, ink, and pastel, and other sketchbooks note suitability for pencils and markers.
Common uses include study aids and flashcards, to-do lists and recipe cards, quick reminders or notes, and creative uses like sketching, doodling, and other drawing activities.
