Golden State Art 5x7 Backing Boards Pack of 100 — White, 4-ply Rigid Support for Frames

These are 100 white 5x7 backing boards from Golden State Art — sturdy, 4-ply cardboard sheets sized to fit standard 5x7 frames and support photos, prints, and craft projects.

Whether you're framing photographs, mounting prints for sale, or assembling portfolio pieces, having consistent, rigid backing makes a big difference in presentation and protection. This kit supplies one hundred pre-cut, double-sided white boards that resist bending and provide a clean neutral background for images or signatures. The boards are about 1/16 inch thick and accept pens, labels, and light craft work on either face.

How do these backing boards improve framed photos and prints?

Using a uniform backing prevents bowed images, helps maintain flatness, and keeps prints centered inside the frame. The white surface also creates a neutral visual border that enhances colour contrast without introducing distractions. Because they’re pre-cut to 5x7, installation is quick and consistent across multiple frames.

• Pre-cut 5x7 size, fits standard 5x7 frames precisely
• 4-ply thickness for stronger support and reduced warping
• White on both sides for a clean display or signature space
• Speeds up framing and reduces need for custom trimming

Are these backing boards durable enough for long-term display?

The boards are constructed from thick cardboard with an internal 4-ply structure, creating a stable backing that resists bending during handling and display. While not archival museum board, they provide reliable day-to-day support for photographs and prints in most home, office, or retail settings. They also work well inside clear sleeves or with mats for added protection.

• 4-ply composition provides rigidity and shape retention
• Suitable for framed displays, craft assemblies, and shipping support
• Can be combined with mats and clear protective bags for longevity

How can I use these boards for DIY and craft projects?

The smooth white surfaces are ideal for signing, labeling, or light decorating; they accept pencil, pen, and many markers cleanly. Crafters often layer them behind photos, use them as mini canvases for mixed-media, or cut them into templates and supports for displays. Their consistent thickness makes them useful for projects where uniform stack height matters.

• Write or draw directly on either white face for personalisation
• Cut or trim for custom mounts, templates, and collage supports
• Stackable and predictable thickness for multi-layer assemblies

What accessories pair well with these 5x7 backing boards?

Combine the boards with photo mats, clear protective sleeves, frame inserts, and archival tape for a finished presentation. Mats add a professional border, sleeves protect surfaces during storage or sale, and archival tape secures prints without bulking up the backing. Using complementary accessories helps adapt these economical boards for retail display or portfolio use.

• Standard 5x7 mats for decorative borders
• Clear polypropylene sleeves for dust and moisture protection
• Archival mounting corners or low-tack tape for secure placement

Who is this for: Photographers, artists, framer shops, craft hobbyists, event planners, and retailers who need an economical, consistent backing solution will find this 100-pack useful. If you frame a lot of 5x7 images, prepare prints for sale, or assemble portfolios, these boards save time, create uniform presentation, and give modest protection to your work.
