That is the question for this Tuesday’s Tip.
For this card Linda Beeson sanded the pre-embossed Stacy Julian Core Impressions cardstock lightly for a soft effect:
Hera Frei uses the same paper line from Stacy Julian coupled with some Cosom Cricket Core Impressions without sanding:
Well..How about both? Heather Bowser left her Core Essentionals background paper as is and then sanded her pumpkins:
How do you decide whether a projects needs that little extra touch of sanding? We would love to hear your thoughts!
Beautiful projects!!!
Love these ideas. Would love to know what punch Linda used on her card. I want to get one! Thanks
I tried sanding after applying gesso on top (idea from Doris Sander.) I will definitely be doing that again! http://creativekokes.wordpress.com/2010/10/07/finally/
I always assemble the project without sanding first, and if it doesn’t quite look finished to me I add the “little extra touch.” Not very scientific, I know, but it works for me!
which Core’Dinations should NOT be sanded ?
