Answer 1

Fiskars makes plastic texturized plates. You put your paper on top of them and rub to get the texture on the paper.

Answer 2

Put something under the paper (kind of thick like a coin) then rub something like the wrong end of a pen around the object. It will make raised impressions in the paper. You could just make it random or make a pattern.

Here's a link that kinda shows what I'm talking about. The white part of the card is textured like what I mean.
