Question How can I use patterned vellum?

Ive bought these packs of co-ordinating patterned and solid coloured paper, with 1 sheet of matching patterned vellum.
I'm not really sure how to the vellum. Has anyone got any ideas , techniques or photos of how to use vellum in your card making projects?

I usually use vellum on the inside of my cards and print my verse/sentiment on it. I also use if just like another layer of paper on the outside. It tends to make the cards more feminine and soft. I love vellum. You can also dry emboss it and it looks fabulous. I look at pergamano cards for inspiration to use vellum.

HTH....

I often use vellum on the outsides of my cards, as backgrounds. I love the effect it gives. In fact, here is a card using almost all vellum as the background = Digiden - Spring Into Green - Weekend Challenge by Digiden at Splitcoaststampers
