Here is another way to use vellum on a scrapbook page.
My mother and I were working together on a Family History scrapbook. We had a story my great grandmother had written in her own hand about a flood the family went through. The paper, though in pretty good condition for it's age, really needed to be protected, so my mother fashioned this vellum envelope to keep the pages nicely in the scrapbook with the writing somewhat visible through the vellum.
Then we printed out a copy of her account and placed it next to the envelope so the story could be easily read.

Hi Cheryl, yes, you take apart the velcro on the tee pee card and fold flat - it will fit in a 5x6 1/2" envelope. Glad you liked it!
love this idea - I am stealing it! We have Pampa's chili recipe in his own hand, and some poetry Mama wrote, both on paper that really does need to be protected -- and I also have a small recipe book from my foster Mom that I treasure and this is the perfect way to handle it - thank you for sharing the idea, as I'd likely never have come up with such a pretty way to do it on my own, LOL!!
