Thank you so much for this. I haven't used vellum yet. This is so helpful. I like your voice, beautifully clear and you talk at a nice pace, which makes you easy to understand. It's a good quality to have in a demonstrator. I have definitely subscribed to your channel. Jo x

I fell in love with using vellum over the gift tags on our Christmas presents last month. Thank you for this information. It answered all my questions for future purchases. 👍

This was awesome. I want to design & print DIY invitations for a semi-formal & had difficulty finding the info I needed. This video was very thorough.

Thank you so much for this video! I've been struggling trying to score and fold vellum for a wedding card and it just kept cracking and breaking. Now I know to purchase the Paper Accents brand. I bought many of the vellums that you have listed and some that you don't have listed and they all cracked and broke at the fold. Thanks again for doing this

New subscriber thank you for this.

I’m looking to make dashboards for planners so I’ll be printing on them.

Want a nice weight since they will be more permanent pieces within the planner

Which weight would you recommend?

[wilhat]

Art by me I got some today wanted the translucent Z paper I think it’s that paper what they have it’s 90gsm having fun with it .

I use these sheets for quilting templates and stencils. Sometimes it’s best to let the printing dry over night. thanks for the weight testing.

[MsBene]

Have you tried vellum with adhesive on the back ? The whole sheet has adhesive on it

[resnin]

Thanks for the info, I was considering purchasing. About smear, what about mirror printing because the ink would be inside.

I am actually planning to copy a pair of vintage 1920s Art Deco lamp shades and they are sort of intricate in that they pyramid down. in other words they are folded and stepped and I thought Vellum would be a great thing to use the originals were made from an oak tag which I found OK but I can’t find oak tag that remotely resembles the quality that the old tag was used back in the day had. So what I wanna do is foldThe vellum and then copy the pattern onto the vellum and punch holes on the edges for the lacing and see if I get a decent finished product. For some reason I thought the Vellum would be a great thing to use, so I’m starting to do some research on it. One question I do have is, is there a heavier weight than 48 pound in the vellum?

This is great, I am wondering how a laser printer does on drying time, would you know? Love this video, saving it for future reference.
