| Mickey's Face - what color cardstock? I've been playing around a lot with my Cricut cartridge (and yes, I'm going to order the other one soon). But I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion of what color would work good for Mickey's face? I've used an eggshell color, but it's not quite right -- anyone found a good cardstock for this anywhere?

| In the comic books Mickey's face was always white. If you want more of a flesh tone, you might try cutting his face in white, then chalking it. I can't remember seeing "flesh-colored" cardstock, but they probably make it. I also have a tan color that might work well.

| I was thinking a light tan color might work with a little chalk shading. Not that I could handle the shading - I'm a little heavy handed when it comes to shading. Good luck - those cut outs are so cool!

| I found a perfect color in the Bazzill cardstock - it has sand in the name, but I'm not sure of the exact name. I'll post it here once I find the name for sure!

| I asked this on the cricut board and didn't get much response, but I asked about bazzill as that is all I use. I've been using French Vanilla, it's a little light but I think it works.

| I just stocked up on the Bazzill - the color is sandcastle, and I think it works really good. Maybe a touch darker than it should be, but it really looks good when they are assembled. Attempting to attach picture here - not the best quality, but maybe it will give you an idea...

| In case anyone can't find the Sandcastle color, I looked at the Bazzill paper I have and another color that might work for Mickey's face is named Buttercream. Looking at both Buttercream and Sandcastle online they look very similar, so don't know how different they are in real life.

| I am not sure about the dif in those two colors either, possibly one is a textured paper and one is smooth???? I will check it out the next time I am looking at Bazzill. I mentioned this on another thread.... it would be really cool to know what colors of CS and paper from each company, like Bazzill, CM, Su etc that are the right colors for the characters..... does anyone know if a list like this exists???? S
