Here are some facts about the Art Squares from Inchie Arts that I use in my projects! 

Inchie Arts products are available in 5 different sizes (1", 1.5", 2" and 3" squares, and ATC size (2.5"x3.5") and 7 different colors: white, ivory, dark cream, light gray, wheat, dark gray, black. 

All colors come from farm grown trees except the black which is actually 100% cotton, dyed with ebony. Each color is available not only as part of an assortment pack, but as a full package of just that color. Ask your retailer about special ordering single colors if you're interested!

 All Inchie Arts products are made with the highest quality artist grade materials that are fade resistant, acid free, lignin free and solid core color through and through. The material is designed to receive whatever art medium (wet or dry) you use in your coloring and embellishment - from stamping to watercolors, chalks, markers, inks, pens, stains and more - vs. having to do the art on an artist grade paper and then pasting to the board.

The squares have a ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ side. Artwork should be done on the side that is NOT smooth. The pebbly texture replicates a high quality art paper and has what artists refer to as 'tooth'.  It's not the end of the world if you create on the back side, but it is essentially a piece of backing paper to the solid core matteboard. It's like stamping and coloring on a piece of xerox paper and will dramatically feather out.

The matteboard is solid core - if you turn it on its side it's solid material through and through - not a piece of art paper stuck to a piece of board. (this also means that you can color the edges with markers!)
