Product Information

Full details

Creativ Spring Cardboard is for crafters of all ages looking to bring vibrant, eco-friendly colour to their projects. Its key benefit is its 180gsm weight, which offers a balance of sturdiness and ease of use for cutting and folding. A caveat is that while it's suitable for most craft adhesives, very heavy embellishments might require stronger bonding methods. This premium coloured craft card comes in fresh, spring shades and is available in various pack sizes, making it ideal for card making, scrapbooking, decorations, and school projects.

Troubleshooting

Cardstock tears when cutting intricate shapes.

Ensure your cutting tool is sharp. For complex designs, consider using a craft knife and cutting mat for more control or a die-cutting machine if available.

Glue is not holding well.

Ensure surfaces are clean and dry. For heavier embellishments, consider using a stronger adhesive like double-sided tape or a craft glue designed for paper.

Colours appear faded.

Store the cardstock flat in a dark, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time.

Cardstock bends or warps.

Ensure the cardstock is stored flat and protected from humidity. Avoid storing near sources of moisture.
