What are the different paper options like?

1. Linen is a traditional bright white, matte cardstock with a thick texture. Colors will appear a more rich, deep tone when printed on linen than they appear on your monitor.
2. Pearl gives a beautiful sparkle to the design. It has a smooth, pearlescent surface. Colors are lightened when printed on pearl due to the sparkle sheen, a chocolate brown will appear much lighter in tone when printed on Pearl than it would on Linen.
3. High gloss cardstock is for those that want a sleek, shiny card. This cardstock is only offered on select designs.
4. Recycled cardstock is a smooth stock with visible fine grains within. This cardstock is only offered on select designs. Please email us if you prefer recycled cardstock for a design that it is not offered on. We will do our best to accomodate you.
