Have you had a chance to try out this fun paper yet? The Shades of Designer Cardstock<\/a> has a really nice feel and is lightly textured on both sides. One side has a hatch texture and the other side has vertical ‘lines’ of texture.<\/p>\n

The Designer Cardstock<\/a> has a white core. I\u2019ll admit it\u2026I used to run away when I saw cardstock with a white core. I LOVED CMs solid cardstock & was happy and content to use only that. Turns out I was missing out on something pretty neat!! I still love my solid cardstock – this is not a substitute for that it\u2019s just another item in my crafty toolbox. (CM is working hard to find a source up to their standards for solid core cardstock. You know I\u2019ll let you know when that happens!) This paper is very versatile! You can get a different looks with just a bit of work.<\/p>\n

The textured pattern is highlighted with just a few swipes of sandpaper.<\/p>\n

A little more effort and you get more of a worn look.<\/p>\n

For the layout below, I lightly distressed an entire piece of paper from the Shades of Red Paper Pack<\/a> to use for the background. I went a little heavier on the edges to give it a thin white border. Paper from the Shades of Green Paper Pack<\/a> was used at the bottom of the page. I roughed up an area to make the background lighter where I wrote my title. I used the same colored green paper and the Two-Way Corner Rounder<\/a> to make the tab on the left side of the layout. The yellow dotted paper and the paper used to make the arrow are both from the Primary Paper Pack<\/a>.<\/p>\n
