Lutradur Mixed Media Sheets pk/10 8.5x11

Create translucent layers that print, stitch, and distress without tearing

Lutradur transforms how artists approach layered, dimensional work. This spunbonded polyester material accepts heat distressing, melts into organic shapes with heat tools, and remains surprisingly strong despite its translucent appearance. The two weights included, five 70-gram sheets for delicate overlays and five 100-gram sheets for substantial structure, let you match material to purpose within a single project.

Both weights run through inkjet printers without jamming, accepting ink cleanly for photo transfers or printed backgrounds. Beyond digital work, Lutradur absorbs alcohol inks, acrylic paints, and dyes while maintaining its integrity. The material stitches easily by hand or machine, cuts without fraying, and bonds with gel medium or encaustic wax. Heat distressing creates controlled holes and texture that would destroy paper or fabric, opening new possibilities for dimensional collage and textile art.

Letter-size sheets integrate directly into mixed media journals, art quilts, and assemblage pieces. Artists working with encaustic find Lutradur's heat tolerance particularly valuable, while book artists appreciate how it creates strong, translucent pages that add depth without bulk. The material's chemical resistance means your surface treatments remain stable over time.
