❀ About Vellum
The translucent vellum with gold foil acetate details can bring a subtle shimmer to various creative projects. Its semi-transparent surface gently diffuses light, enhancing backgrounds, overlays, and layered compositions. The gold foil patterns draw attention without overpowering the overall design.
✂️ Design & Uses
Common uses include:
- Card Overlays: Place a vellum sheet over patterned paper for a layered look.

✌ Working with Gold Foil Acetate
When cutting or trimming, use a craft knife or scissors. For adhesives, consider using double-sided tape, foam dots, or specialized glue that is friendly to vellum. Align foil elements to highlight focal points or create subtle patterns. If desired, test a small piece first to ensure that the adhesive remains discreet.
