Textured Papers : Beyond the Conventional Designs

In the vast segment of handmade papers, texture parers hold a very special place. These are designed in a very precarious manner using extremely rich and exquisite papers that are very attractive and glossy. They are available in versions of embossed papers as well as wrinkled papers. Textured papers are excellent for making enchanting coasters, greeting cards, invitation cards, folders, marriage cards as they have a lot of scope for experiments. This write up talks about some of the most enchanting textured papers that have emerged as a favorite of the people in recent times. The best part is that you can easily make them at your home. Just follow the tips to get the most unique design for any purpose.

Bubble Texturing – To make papers that have a bubble like imprint on them, just take a small bowl and mix in it calligraphy ink or any dye based ink for your choice. The next step is to add some soap water and start blowing bubbles with the help of a straw. Use mate or index paper for best results and try to burst the bubbles on the paper.

Double Stick Tape – To make something very exclusive like double stick tape, use embossing powder with heat emboss. In order to make a rainbow border, use many colors and cover the tape with tiny beads. You can also use confetti for giving it a multi dimensional look. The last step is to apply a contrasting color of powder once you are through with embossing powder to the remaining exposed tape. This type of design is best suited for making borders of the cards.

Colored Decked Edges – To gain this pattern all you need to do is decide the location of the torn edges. To create this you need a scratch paper wherein any color pigment is needed to be added. Then apply a scored line using a brush and color. Further allow some time for the fibers of the paper to absorb the water and then cautiously pull the paper apart. Your theme is formed.

Patterned Texturing – You can create unique backgrounds to using spray paint that can be applied to a variety of materials. Use more than one color to give it a rainbow texturing effect.

Besides these some of the most pronounced varieties of textured papers, many other varieties are also present. Look out for spatter texturing that uses toothpaste for its design, tissue texturing that install pieces of tissue paper tightly to produce wrinkles and marble texturing where you just need to put the requisite paper in the dish of colored water. The choice is multitudinous and creative!
