This is my first time using this type of paper. I have an art project in mind but at this time I have just done a simple test run. These sheets are A5 sized so they are smaller than a standard sheet of notebook paper. They are a bit thicker than notebook paper too. They feel like they may be about the thickness of index cards. The package includes the cyanotype paper, a clear acrylic sheet to lay over your page when you let it sit in the sun and an instruction sheet. The process works as described although you may have to practice a bit to get the results you want if you haven’t used this before. I think this product is neat and I can’t wait to use it in some of my projects.

These papers are a lot of fun to play with, best if used on a nice sunny day. Comes with one acrylic sheet so if you are doing this with a class, it would be best to do this on a non-windy day when they can sit with the paper and watch the process, remove the paper and objects, and take them back to class after 5-15 minutes of exposure. The fun part is washing these off for the reveal.Lay flat to dry, then they can be hung up as is or framed to preserve nature's art. Write the date, name, and age of the child for archiving, scrapbooks, etc.The size is much smaller than standard printer paper, it is 8.4" x 5.9" be sure that is the size you want.No matter how much you want it to create that picture it shows of a real cat, there is no way that is possible. It makes me laugh when someone uses stock photos instead of real photos of how things work. If you didn't see it, it is in the last photo the top of the photo says easy application it is located at the bottom in the middle, top left example in that set of 6 examples. The other 5 examples are more likely closer to actual results, the peacock one might be possible.The prep work is, getting your supplies together, assembling in the shade, or hovering over the photo-reactive paper while placing your art together, then top with the acrylic sheet, or you can assemble inside on a cookie sheet and then place the acrylic on top. Remember you can only do one at a time with the acrylic sheet or you can risk it and do it without that part and hopefully the wind doesn't pick up your object or blow them around and ruin the art. But maybe it would be fun to experiment with moving art. Who knows, it is up to you to play with nature and light.
