Essentials card stock has a beautiful "canvas" texture on one side, and is smooth on the other. When you fold your A5 piece in half to create your card, the texture may appear to crack if you are not careful.

We recommend that you score your Essentials first, using a 4914 Tools - Bone Scorer, on the inside (smooth side) of the card before folding it over. This will give you a crisp straight fold every time. Happy Cardmaking!!!
