I took an art class in college which used this paper for cover stock while making models of different binding methods. It works very well as a cover for single-signature notebooks and can easily be decorated with pen or pencil. I plan on making more as gifts. We also used it to practice covering mat board for hard book covers and then assembling those models. It's an economical way to practice the folding and gluing, rather than using book cloth on the first few tries. But I think you could make nice custom covers by drawing on this paper, sealing it, and covering book board. Canson has a nice variety of colors available, so it's easy to create sets, complement end papers, etc. Just make sure you fold with the grain! ;)

I love working with pastels and found these products allow me to use different strokes and soft to hard pastels.

Great paper for so many media.

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Pads:

Canson Mi-Teintes offers LOTS of colors. Each piece of paper offers the artist a choice of smooth or textured side. Canson also offers the ability to purchase a pad of multiple colors with each order. This is some tough paper that withstands marker, layers of colored pencils, layers of pastels, graphite pencils, watercolors, and even acrylic paint.

I have no complaints about Canson Mi-Tientes Pads and Paper. The paper is high quality.
I have no issues of tearing, fading, or being resistant to layers of multiple media. When I draw, I always use a wide array of colored pencils, Inktense Pencils, Graphite, PanPastels, Gesso layers, watercolor markers diluted on the paper with a light wash, oil pastels, Copics, and even some acrylic paints
.
I can imagine with the durability of this paper, there's hardly a thing that couldn't be used on it, although I've never tried heavier media in all honesty.

Personally, I love the warm colored paper, but there is also a place in my heart for the gray tones as well. It's always a tough choice when I sit down to draw/paint on which color I'm going to use. Usually, I let the subject matter determine the paper color. I'm certainly glad that Canson makes a wide variety of tones and tints to choose from.

My students use these for charcoal or pastel projects. Often I'll halve the full-size papers to get more out of my budget, but the papers hold up to long projects, allowing for layering of pastels, or erasing out with charcoal.

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Drawing Papers:

Since I'm a new user of tinted papers, and since this is the first tinted paper brand I have tried, my input is of relatively limited value. However, that said, I think the papers are not only really great, but a great value as well! The softness of the tints is perfect for my drawings, and I find the texture to be just what I want. I've used pastels, charcoal, pencil, and pen and ink, all with excellent results. I would definitely buy this product again.

We used the paper for an origami star workshop. This paper worked very well for that purpose. It was easy enough to fold, but tough enough not to tear at all.

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Pads:

I'd never tried a Canson Mi-Teintes product, and I am glad I did. I am very pleased with the results overall! The only down side is there are too few sheets of each tone. When I run out of one used more frequently, I will be forced to re-order another whole pad.
