The beveling can be seen from this angle. Also notice the single fibers, or hairs coming from the surface of the edge towards the bottom of the image.

   What happens if you cut a card sanded?

   • In all these types of trimming, it remains hard to replicate a real factory cut and real aging. The stock of a card will age from being handled and oxidation from the atmosphere. This causes edges to discolor, even if it is slightly. A newly cut or sanded edge will be freshly exposed card stock and can look “fresh” in comparison to unaltered edges.
