Using Two-Toned Cardstock for a Cool Card
Jul 9, 2025
Stampin' Up! Two-Toned Cardstock with Notes and Totes bundle for a beachy card with texture added to the two-toned cardstock to look like waves

Stampin’ Up! added 12×12 Two-Toned cardstock to their repertoire when Close To My Heart was added to the line. But what exactly is Two-Toned cardstock?

Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Cardstock adds depth, texture, and creative versatility to your paper crafting projects. Each 12″ x 12″ sheet features a light and dark shade of the same color on opposite sides, giving you twice the design options in a single sheet!

Perfect for cardmaking, scrapbooking, 3D projects, and more, this cardstock has a smooth surface for clean stamping and a white core that shines through beautifully with techniques like tearing, sanding, distressing, embossing, and crumpling.

  • Available in a wide range of Stampin’ Up! exclusive colors
  • 12″ x 12″ sheets
  • Acid- and lignin-free — safe for memory keeping
  • Ideal for layering, backgrounds, die-cutting, and more

Whether you’re building your stash or looking for paper with built-in contrast, Two-Tone Cardstock is a must-have staple for every crafter.

I shared a fabulous way to use two-toned cardstock in my Quick Class Live on 7/9/25. Thanks to Lynn Fones for the design! Check it out:
