Close To My Heart’s White Core Cardstock makes it the perfect candidate for distressing. And with our many fun tools, you can get some great effects too!
- Using an embossing stylus, dry emboss your CS, flip it over and then sand the raised edges
- Using sandpaper or a sanding block, sand your CS in a cross hatch pattern (looks great as faux linen!)
-
Sanding our Textured Cardstock really emphasizes the texture to it
-
Sanding only the edges of a piece of CS gives it more definition
-
Using our Finishing Files can be a great alternative to using sandpaper or a sanding block. They also are AMAZING for using with our Dimensional Elements (chipboard letters and shapes)
-
Sand the center only of your CS to add more dimension/depth
