Covering A Cake Board W/ Scrapbook Paper?

I saw a post in the forums in which the caker covered the board in scrapbook paper....I think it was "_Jamie_"....
How do you protect the paper from grease? In the pic I saw of hers, the board was very clean....it didn't look like she used saran wrap or anything to cover it....
What's the secret?
You can attach the scrapbook paper to the board with a glue stick, cover the whole thing with laminate, or clear contact paper. Put your cake on a separate board, so it does not sit directly on the surface for the contact paper (for food safety).. I have done a few, and love the look myself.. hth
i use contact paper, and then have my bottom tier on a cake board. so it starts on the bottom with a foam board, scrapbook paper, clear contact paper, then foam board and cake.
You can also use clear cello wrap. It is food safe and you can get it at Michale's on a big roll. I use that when I use paper that is not food safe. I have covered boards in themed tissue paper and used the cello wrap over it.
YAY!!! Thanks for all the replies! I *thought* it was contact paper, but I wasn't sure......
off to Hobby Lobby I go ![]()
I used two sided tape to cover a mdf cake boardwith scrapbook paper, then I made the cake on a store bought foil cake board cut just to size and placed it on top, it worked fine no marks on the paper and cut fine, I did put two sided tape on the bottom of the foil board so the cake didn't move, that way the cake never touches the paper that may not be food safe www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_1374556.html
