Can paper block skin from tanning? and clear tape?

I am going to be doing some suntanning (natural, lay-out-on-my-lawn type) and I want to get what is called a ';tan-to'; like a tattoo except it is made from covering a part of the body with a sticker, shielding it from tanning, making temporary body art.





My graphic I will be making a tan-to out of is made out of normal white paper, and I was wondering if this will be enough to block the suns rays? I will be using clear tape to hold it down, will the suns ways pass through this? or should I keep the tape under the paper?





I am asking DOES PAPER STOP A TAN? not ';is this healthy?'; do not answer this question with


';you shouldn't be tanning'; that is not what I am asking now is it? =)
