How Do You Use Lightboxes?
If you are not a natural-born artist, you can still create beautiful scrapbook layouts. All you need is a favorite design and a lightbox and you are on your way. You can even create multiple holiday cards or invitations without the expense of printing by following these simple steps. Choose the design you want to trace. Ideally, your design will include sharp, distinct lines instead of muted, watercolor styles. The more graphic the design, the easier it is to trace. Once you have chosen the design, lightly tape to the work surface of the lightbox. If the design is larger than the lightbox surface, start in one corner of the design instead of the center so that it will be easier to trace one section at at time. Place your cardstock on top of the design and turn on the lightbox. You should be able to clearly see the design image through your cardstock. If you do not, then the cardstock you have chosen is too thick and you need to choose another one so that your final image is traced accu
