Scrapbooking Kit Paper

Vellum issues?

I have a bunch of vellum that has accumulated over the years of my scrapbooking and collecting kits. I don't know how to use it! How do you attatch it? Where's the best place to use it? Is it used best with patterned or plain paper? Help!
I have lots of pieces with words already printed on it

There are some scrapping adhesives that are made specifically for vellum (i.e. they don't show). I always have fun trying to come up with new ways to attach it, since I usually don't use the adhesives. I've used the decorative paper clips (or made my own), brads, wire, embroidery/sewing, eyelets, etc. I've poked holes, or punched holes, through the paper and threaded ribbon through it, and that always looks good. I like to print out my journaling on it. But be careful, it takes longer for the ink to dry (I apologize if you already know any of this, by the way...I hate it when I feel like I'm being lectured to, so I just thought I'd throw that in here). Before I realized it takes so long for the ink to dry, I did get some really fun effects out of it...I printed out my friend's name on beige vellum, using brown ink. I picked it up as soon as it came out of the printer, and kept touching the ink. After a few seconds, I noticed I had ink on my hand. But when I looked really closely at the paper, I realized that not ALL of the ink came off, which gave it a really cool aged look. I loved it! Sorry to go on and on, I just thought I'd share. Anyway, I prefer to use vellum with plain paper. If you're doing a layout on patterned paper, you can always mount the vellum on plain paper, then mount that on your layout. Happy scrapping!

Edit: Try tearing the vellum along one of the edges. It looks awesome!

Eyelets Brads Snaps

Advice about eyelets and brads?

I've never used them before but I have a few questions maybe a few crafty folk could answer?

1. Can you use ordinary pliers to snap the eyelets in place or do you need a specific tool, and do the tools only come for certain sizes or will they work for all size eyelets?

2. Brads do not need a special implement do they?

3. What stuff do you use them for? (I have lots of ideas, I'm just curious)

4. Is it ok to use eyelets in material, say for instance a soft toy that I want to attach a keyring to.

Thanks

If fabric is very stretchy you will want one layer in there that is not, as the eyelets can escape.

And if you attach eyelets to toys that are normally used for small children you need immediately add a warning that it is not to be used for children under 3 years/36 months. (As when they do get out you are responsible for it, and adults will give toys to children even when there are eyelets in.)

When you use ordinary pliers for eyelets you will damage them, sometimes only a little and you can get away with it, sometimes more and they can not be used.
