I am in search of white card stock that has the look of linen. Does that make sense? I’ve been seeing cards on Pinterest that use instead of plain flat card stock for the front panel, it has more of a “linen” look. They look very pretty.
I was wondering if anybody has any experience purchasing this type of cardstock for Cardmaking. I also am not sure of what card stock weight I should be buying for this type of paper. As well as making the card base, I plan on die cutting it. Are there any brands I should be looking for and where do you purchase it?
Thanks!

Sounds like Bazzill cardstock. It has a slight texture to it. www.12x12cardstock.shop/collections/bazzill-cardstockI have a ton of 12x12 sheets leftover from my scrapbooking days. I don’t think it’s heavy enough to use as a card base but you could definitely adhere a full panel to the front of the card base. |

Club Scrap uses linen texture card stock sometimes and at least once I've miscut a sheet and replaced it with something close enough from either Michael's or Joann.

I used to buy a linen card stock from the LSS, but they closed, and I moved, and no longer have any LSS near me.
You could check Tuesday Morning. I have bought some card stock from them in the past, and I think some of it had a linen texture (probably the Bazzill).

Bazzil paper has that look.
I got a StampinUp embossing folder that it creates a linen look, unfortunately its retried.

I have almost a full pack of it in 8.5x11 and use it when I want a little texture on my cards. Restless Spirit , if you'd like to try it out and don't mind it cut down to standard card size since it's easier to mail, I'm happy to send you some. |
