True scrapbookers know that there are some layouts and projects that call for colorful, reliable, photo-safe cardstock! CM’s selection of colors is second-to-none and the NEW shimmer selection (part of the limited-time Cardstock Buffet that’s going on now!) gives you the ability to make your projects shine (or shimmer) like never before. Want to see how you can use cardstock in fun and useful ways? Read on to check out five ideas for how to use cardstock!
Mat Photographs
Make photo mats around your pictures using a cardstock color to complement your designer paper packs.
Add Accents with Borders & Punches
Draw attention to your Border Maker Cartridge designs by adding accentuating cardstock! Use punches with your cardstock to create your own embellishments – they’ll layer perfectly with your designer papers!
Make a Background
Cardstock is perfect to use as a background for your layout or even a card or border base!
Use it for Journaling
Tell your story – journal your special memories on a backdrop of photo-safe cardstock! You can also cut strips of cardstock to use as journal lines.
Creating Shapes
Pair cardstock with our Custom Cutting System and make any shape perfectly! We currently offer patterns such as circles, ovals, rectangles, gemstones and jumbo hexagon.
