Amazing Paper Backgrounds

Paper has been used since eons. The history of paper dates back thousands of years and it has been one of the most important tools for the development and evolution of mankind! Thus when computers came in, the dependence on paper reduced drastically. However, people still loved the texture and look of paper and so paper backgrounds became famous over time and are now in vogue!

Paper has a unique texture with its slight creases, porous membranes and flexibility. Such a background actually feels soothing and calming to look at while looking at a digital monitor or screen. Paper gives a raw and natural aesthetic that is only unique to itself and seeing text on it on a monitor brings people closer to reality through a digital screen.
