"Sticky Note Arrangements: The Trendy Request Cards with Tracing Paper Layered on 'Request'!"

If you forget to include it, it’s a big deal! Small but important sticky notes*
Sticky notes are paper items used to communicate requests for the day, such as welcoming guests, speeches, toasts, and other matters, to specific individuals ahead of time.
Among the items to include in the invitation, they are particularly small and treated as supporting roles,
but because they contain information that is only for that specific person, forgetting to include them or losing them could be a serious issue, making them highly important.
Because they have such a crucial role, you want to design them beautifully, right?♡
Recently, this kind of design has become popular*
It seems that sticky notes for invitations have recently adopted this kind of design!
A larger piece of paper with "Request" written on it is layered over the sticky note. ***
This is called a request card.
Rather than having just a single flimsy sticky note,
having a lightly translucent piece of paper that can be flipped like a cover definitely makes it look more refined, doesn’t it? ♩
From a guest's perspective, they might think, "How cute! ♡" "You’ve paid attention to detail, and it’s wonderful! ♡"
How to make a request card with "Request"
Tracing paper can be purchased at a 100 yen store.
You can print on it using a printer,
or if you don't have a printer or if the printing smudges and doesn’t work well, writing by hand is also recommended.
(If you place the paper over the model, it will be transparent, so you can just trace it! ♡)
Gold or black colors and cursive fonts seem to be popular. ♩
Then, layer it over the sticky note and secure it with a grommet punch, and you’re done!
The grommet punch adds a cute touch ♡ After that, you can tie it with a ribbon or arrange it as you like.
Let’s layer the "Request" paper over the sticky note*
A request card with tracing paper labeled "Request" layered over the sticky note secured with a grommet punch looks very cute♡
For guests, when they take it out of the invitation,
it’s clearer if there’s one sheet that says,
"Your request (what we ask of you) is..."
This creates a cushion that makes it easier to understand what this is about.*
Of course, the appearance has a chic, foreign atmosphere, so it’s killing two birds with one stone! ♡
