The Spellbinders BetterPress 8.5" x 11" Cotton Cardstock is the full-sheet version of the industry-leading BetterPress substrate. While the pre-cut panels offer convenience, these 8.5" x 11" sheets provide the smart flexibility needed for custom card sizes, slimline designs, scrapbooking elements, or creating multiple smaller cards from a single sheet. At 118 lb (320 gsm), this 100% cotton paper is engineered specifically to yield the deep, tactile debossing that makes letterpress so luxurious.
Key Features:
Maximum Versatility: The full-letter size allows you to cut your own custom card bases or panels. It is the smart choice for Slimline cards (3.5" x 8.5") or larger 6" x 6" formats that pre-cut packs cannot accommodate.
Pure "Porcelain" White: A bright, crisp white that offers the cleanest possible canvas. It ensures that BetterPress Inks—from the softest pastels to the deepest blacks—appear vibrant and true to colour.
100% Curated Cotton: Unlike standard wood-pulp cardstock, which can be brittle, this cotton paper is soft and pliable. It allows the press plates to "sink" into the surface, creating a deep, pill-free impression that catches the light and invites touch.
Durable for Mixed Media: Because it is cotton-based, this paper is naturally more absorbent and resilient. It can handle watercoloring, ink blending, and heavy 3D embossing without the fibres breaking or the paper warping excessively.
Professional Grade: This is the exact same high-quality material used in the pre-cut packs, ensuring consistent results across all your BetterPress projects.
