If you haven’t seen the latest issue of Paper Crafts 101, it is loaded with pages of techniques and here are a few:
Add paint to sandpaper (oh, my fav!) to enhance the texture.
Make a project pop by adding Liquid Applique dollops to a design.
Apply glue using a glue stick to decorative paper and layer tissue paper over the glued area to create a faux silk finish. Probably similar look as a vellum overlay?
Score lines horizontally and vertically for a checked pattern look. Sand the raised lines!
Snip the edge of cardstock to create fringe.
Faux stitch with a white pen.
Use brads to create an interesting corner.
2-Color Stamp “Kissing” – Ink a stamp, then ink a separate “background” stamp with a different color ink and press the first stamp into the second and press image onto paper.
