Textured Cardstock

Textured Cardstock Our sturdy Textured Cardstock is textured on both sides, and the back side is a lighter shade so you really have two colors to work with! Currently available in an Autumn Harvest combo pack, a Winter Cozy combo pack, Spring Harmony, and a White Daisy pack, our Textured Cardstock has a white core which shows through for added interest when sanding or scissor-distressing your paper.
The combo packs include 24 sheets per package; four each in six colors. The White Daisy pack also includes 24 sheets. ($14.95 each; X5669 Textured CS Autumn Harvest Combo Pack; X5670 Textured CS Winter Cozy Combo Pack; $12.95 X5671 White Daisy Textured CS)

Features and Benefits of Textured Cardstock:

  • All-white core
  • Takes inks like most textured paper
  • Two-toned (one side is darker than the other)
  • Both sides are textured (one side is more defined than the other)
  • Available in Autumn Harvest, Winter Cozy, and White Daisy

Tips and Ideas for Using Textured Cardstock:

  1. Sand both sides to allow white core to show through and get different look with two colors
  2. Crinkle the paper
  3. Tear the paper
  4. Cover a Dimensional Element with it
  5. Curl the edges for a weathered look
  6. Use the stipple brush to create texture shadows
  7. Using VersaMark® ink with colored chalk on White Daisy Textured CS makes the grooves pop!
  8. Ink may stay wet a bit longer on the colored Textured CS
  9. Try printing a photo on the CS
  10. Try dry embossing
