## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with copic markers?  Do the colors bleed through?**
A: My daughter uses these notebooks with her Copic Markers. It did bleed through the piece of paper to the other side but it DID NOT get any marker on the next page!  This could depend on how heavy you use the markers but she colors and does some blending with her Copics and hasn't ruined a new page in her notebook yet. Hope this helps!

**Q: Will the pages tear out by accident easily when you turn the page? Is it sturdy enough?**
A: I use the 18x24 size and the pages never come out. It is actually a bit annoying to take pages out if you want to.

**Q: Is it white**
A: The cover is blue as shown, and the paper is white.

**Q: what's the size of the sheet as picture show 18x24in 30 sheets but description says 60 sheets?**
A: there are 30 sheets in the pad

Great quality for the price! I use for pencil drawings and watercolor. Love the side wire, keeps all my artwork in one place; the paper is great for quick watercolor portraits and sketches (without too much water) and detailed pencil drawings
