Default question about vellum

Does anyone have any idea what to do with vellum that is not transparent? The stuff I have is more gold in color. Help!

It's beautiful embossed with a CB A2 folder.

Vellum can come in many weights/thicknesses and colors from nearly clear to frosted to having designs on it.

As said previously, vellum does look very nice embossed in which ever fashion you care to use.

Caution.....if putting the rather thin vellum through the Cuttlebug for embossing, be a bit careful. I've had some very thin vellum crack and break on the embossed parts. I look for the heavier weight vellum for embossing that looks really neat!

I was at my LSS yesterday for a class and the teacher used vellum like this as a background for stamped images -- she made it special by punching border punches around the edges. It looked fantastic! (and made me want to get more border punches!)
