Designer Paulette Jarvey layers colored vellum to create page accents and photo corners. Tip: When working with vellum, always work with a clear adhesive and try to hide the adhesive under a photo or other embellishment. A Day to Remember
Materials: Pastel floral or patterned papers in coordinating shades
Several shades of pastel vellum (to coordinate with patterned paper)
Silver paper
Silver photo corners
Silver pen
Acid-free stick glue
Wedding photos
- First, crop and mat photos with 1/8" white mat, followed by a silver 3/8" mat.
- Select 3 coordinating shades of pastel vellum papers. Cut the lightest colors to 8" x 9"; the darkest, to 8" square.
- Begin layering vellums. Adhere lightest color centered toward top of patterned page.
- Turn medium shade sideways and layer, centered, on top of first vellum sheet.
- Then, adhere the darkest vellum, turned to look like a diamond, and centered over the previous two layers (figure A).
- Next, attach the photos with photo corners and add a matching journaling plaque. Use silver pen for journaling and titles.
Creating Vellum Photo Corners Tip: When working with vellum, stick glue seems to provide the best results. - Fold small-medium vellum square in half vertically (figure B).
- Fold vellum in half horizontally (figure C).
- Begin folding layers down from top corner toward bottom corner. Avoid folding all the way to diagonal edge. Continue folding layers down to create a pocket (figure D) where the photo corner can be inserted.
