I bought a small sampling to use with my cuttlebug emboss folders. My neighbor had a bad experience with it tearing when she tried to emboss. I was able to emboss fine. It is a fairly lightweight cardstock, but worked well as an embossed mat on my card. Sanding brought out the lighter core color.
Good luck.

I have made a layout with 2 blues that I tore into waves. It turned out great!! I also like to use the Black Magic for cards, so you can have a black outside, but a pretty colour inside.

It is 80-lb cardstock, so it should be relatively sturdy. Hopefully your friend's paper wasn't a "bad batch", if there is such a thing.

It is one color on the outside and a complementary color on the inside. Unless it is from the black magic collection, then it is black on the outside and another color on the inside (these are very cool). they do have some other papers, as well.

Check them out on their website at www.coredinations.com.

Is the colored core on the Black Magic "sandwiched" between 2 layers of black, or if you were to cut a card from it and fold it, would it be black on the outside and colored on the inside?

I bought two different packags from All That Scraps -Vintage Collection \ Reminisce and the black magic. The black magic is great for tearing, sanding, etc. I love the Reminisce for the bg on cards. The look really great on masculine cards. I have used the shades of brown quite a bit. I just wish you could buy it by the sheet instead of the pack!

Black is on both sides and the color is in the middle, so you don't see the color until you tear the paper.

I was wrong about this...I just checked the paper and it is black on one side and a neutral color on the other. I have two here to look at and potion no. 9 is white on the opposite side and cauldron is a color similar to the SU sahara sand. I don't know about the other two black magic collections.

Unfortunately, Core'dinations has been off to a bit of a rocky start. My take is that they underordered on their "premier" order from the manufacturer. They took way more orders for the paper at CHA than they were expecting to have. So, some of the CHA orders and many of the first retailer orders from the website were not filled.

Initially we were told that we would have to wait until the middle of May for their next order to come (this paper is manufactured in and shipped on a boat from China). However, they did have another order airlifted in (which I'm sure was quite expensive) in the meantime to release some of the pressure from retailers who had taken preorders and wanted to get the paper out to customers.

However, that shipment that was supposed to come in mid-May, as of June 3 still wasn't in. They said they were expecting it that week and that it would be going out within 10 business days. That would mean next week. I haven't heard anything from them (they call before they ship to get payment information) so I know it hasn't gone out yet.

So that's the story, as I know it.

smriti: I'll have to check those sites and see if anyone has it in stock -- thank you.

7kidscollegefund: Thank you for the information, that may be why a google search came up short.

I knew someone here would know!

I just purchased and received (only took 2 days from order process to arrival) from the Stamping Cottage 2 packages of the Coordinations paper. I only opened it to look at the colors. I purchased it just to see really what it was. Is there any other way to use it to see the underlying color except for tearing it? I'm not a fan of that kind of torn edge on my projects, but liked the idea of the dual color. I have a feeling I may only have the option of tearing.

I also purchased the Vintage paper from Stamping Cottage, too. That is really neat with the texture too.

Any other ways of revealing the inside color than tearing, I'm all ears!

Sanding will expose the interior color. So will crumpling it up (antiquing).

7kidscollegefund......That's an idea....I'll have to see how either of those work out for color exposure.

http://2ndchildhood.typepad.com/2ndc...ons/index.html This link will take you to some samples of black magic and coordinations paper.

I haven't actually ordered online from her because I'm lucky enough that Cherylynn comes to the Portland area once a year but she's super nice and I'm sure if you had any questions she would be more than happy to answer them.
