How to Use Vellum Paper in Scrapbooking

Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Michele Wright. I've been a Creative Memories consultant for 17 years and I love helping people tell their stories. We are going to talk very briefly about how to use vellum in a traditional album or a digital album and one of the things that you can do is to use overlay to print on vellum from your computer and then overlay it over something that is already a part of what you want to show. I have done the same thing here on this particular album. I have printed my son's name with vellum on vellum and then I've also done the snow capped peaks using vellum paper. I've done the same thing here with my daughter's album. Her name is on vellum but I have also used vellum both on top of and behind some of the little squares in the album to tie it altogether. Same thing on here with my daughter's album. I love printing on vellum. These are cute little I love you albums. Here is vellum used with punches to create the lay for the Hawaii page and here again we have a traditional album with vellum telling the story, helping to tell the story. In digital albums we have a feature called, a tool called opacity and what you can do is take a tiny piece of a picture for instance this was the flood on our street, 2005 so I took a picture I believe it was in this right here. I took just a tiny part of that picture and I made it the background and then you can hit the opacity tool on a digital album and fade it out so that it is not overwhelming your pictures so have fun using vellum in your albums."
