I hunted for these high and low.  If you google them they are not craft mats but craft sheets.  Referring to them as Ranger craft sheets even gets you closer.  In any event I saw them on one of the YouTube videos done by Tim Holtz.  I now have one and they are indispensable.  They are good for you but even better if you have little kids.  They clean up pretty well and definitely save your table.

You need one if you are going to do any of the blending techniques that Tim Holtz shows in his distress ink videos.  Here is where I ended up finding them.  Scrapbook Store has the bigger one that is 15X18.  There is also a small one as well.

Here is the link Tim Holtz video I used to learn how to get really creative with the distress inks.  The use of the craft mat comes in very handy in the technique 2 of the video.
