    Default Vallum

    Hi all..can anyone tell me how to apply quotes already bought on Vallum paper? Do you glue it on? I saw some wonderful quotes that I would like to add to my pages, digital and hybird but don't know how....

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Mary,
    Are the quotes in .png format or do you want to type them yourself? Quotations in .png can be added to your LO as any other element. Does this help? If you want to type the quote, just use the type tool and choose the font and size desired.

    Maybe you can explain further what you want to do if this doesn't answer your question.

    You have vellum paper with words already, and now you want to add quote marks? I think I would just get out a black (or other matching color) marker and add them. There's not a really easy way using the computer. You maybe could scan it it (at 300 ppi), place quote marks, and then hide the layer with the scan, then run the vellum back through the printer and print just the quote marks layer. But, it's hit or miss whether or not it would line up exactly.

    If you have a Zyron machine, you can run them thru that. It puts an even (clear) sticky backing on the letters. If not, applying an even, think coat of white glue is about all I can think to do unless you want to use brads. If you have sewing supplies, you could try ironing on Stitch Witchery, but I'd test it before using it on your actual letters. HTH

    Oh, well, you can get clear double sided tape that is designed for vellum at most scrapbook stores and after you cut around the quotes, use the tape to stick it on. I've used brads and eyelets to hold on vellum, too, back in my pre-digital scrapbooking phase.
