I tried using regular vellum, it gummed up my printer something awful so had to find printer friendly vellum paper. Used to get it at Walmart and Office Depot but they both stopped carrying it. I love to print things out on vellum to put over other images beneath. It's such a great look. <br />Love all the neat things you use to embellish your altered book bundles. They look really nice on a staged table or mantel for example. <br />Please let me know where you found your vellum.
