Specially manufactured to resist tears and produce clean lines and crisp folds, the 7 x 7 sheets (2 each of 12 different colors) are perfect for creating a fascinating array of three-dimensional objects that will make intriguing party favors, holiday decorations, and conversational pieces. - from Amzon
