The Highlight Material for Welcome Boards is "Tracing Paper"!
The trend among brides who are making handmade welcome boards right now is "tracing paper" ♡
DIY projects are spreading where letters are printed on tracing paper and layered over wedding photos for pre-wedding shoots, then framed.
The stylish appearance that takes advantage of the see-through properties of tracing paper is appealing, right?
The idea of layering tracing paper with favorite wedding photos is popular, but...
We found the perfect DIY idea for brides who want to take simplicity and style to the next level ♡
Simple and Stylish ♡ Tracing Paper Only Welcome Board
The idea is to create a welcome board that uses only tracing paper placed in a frame or photo frame.
The key point is to leave the background transparent by not placing any photos behind it.
By using a piece of tracing paper that is slightly smaller than the frame, it creates an effect that makes the letters appear to be floating within the frame ♡
Since tracing paper has a translucent quality, it’s also great to place a swag of dried flowers behind the welcome board or to display it inside a welcome trunk.
The simple design makes it likely to fit in with any atmosphere of the venue.
How to Make a Tracing Paper Welcome Board?
The materials needed are just a frame and tracing paper, making the DIY process simple ♩
Choose a frame you like and prepare a piece of tracing paper that is slightly smaller.
There are two methods to transfer text onto the tracing paper:
① Print directly onto the tracing paper
② Create a design on a computer or smartphone, print it on a piece of paper the same size as the tracing paper, and trace over it with a marker
For those who can print tracing paper at home or have a Kinko's nearby, option ① is recommended, otherwise option ② works best.
