you can use a Xyron, or I usually attach with brads or eyelets. Sometimes I add a bit of mono and then cover up the strip with ribbon.

I use scotch brand Vellum tape and that is the only thing I have found that doesn't show. I bought it at Michaels. Took a few times to get it right. Oh make sure your hands are really clean, I have had smudge marks on the tape and the smudge from my inky finger is what has a dark area that you could see through the vellum. I had an entire page of circus animals in vellum to attach so brads & ribbon was out.

Default Attaching vellum

If you will go to www.mostlyanimals.com she has an excellent tutorial for attaching vellum. It is under Projects and is called Invisible Vellum Attachment.

I have used vellum tape for years and then become a demo in my starter kit was a wonderful product called SNAIL adhesive. Use small amounts. If you have stamped on the vellum apply under stamp. All my scrapper friends love it. It is much less fussy than vellum tape.
