    There's a special type of cardboard you can get, like aeroboard, can't think of the name off hand. Anyway, get a lino cutter, art room has them, and dig little trenches both horrizontally and vertically to create a stone look. VERY time consuming though!

    any craft shop should have it, it's a type of modeling cardboard.
