http://www.creativememories.com/Main...Vellum-Accents

I bought these off Ebay last week in the middle of the night (I couldn't sleep) and my brain must have been in a fog. For some reason, I thought they were rub on transfers which I found out they are NOT once I received them in the mail. I have been scrapbooking on and off for quite a few years, but I usually stay away from vellum. How do I attach these to my pages?? If I use any adhesive products, won't they show thru the vellum???

(I'm really not as stupid as I appear in this post!!)

This is what CM recommends using them with...

I am sure your local Scrapbooking store would have something along the same lines if you do not have a CM consultant.

Or you could use brads to attatch to the corners.

All the craft stores and some of the major retailers sell vellum tape. I haven't used it, so I'm not sure as to the effectiveness. But the one I see the most is made by Scotch, and they tend to make good products.

Also, a trick I recently discovered is that you can make a frame to surround the words to kind of highlight them.

Good luck!

-Lucky

There are a few vellum tapes on the market now. Xyron makes one and there is another on a roller. I've used both and they do not show through the vellum.
