Vellum is that frosty-looking paper that sometimes is on invites. It just gives it a different look.

Any stationery store should have it, I think.

I wanted the envelopes for the cry packs, so I searched for it online and found it real cheap! But, I guess if you wanted to see it in person, you should look at it! I know that AC Moore and Michaels have it!

My friend's sister is really crafty and helped me out with the same question this weekend.
She told me to make sure of one thing: when you buy it, make sure that the box tells you what kind of printer it works on (inkjet, etc.). It has to match the printer you will be using or else it will be messy. Its sold for all printers, so you shouldn't have a problem.

Use vellum tape or the spray stuff. Wrap the vellum paper into a cylinder and glue it together like a water bottle label. Then in the back, you can put small pins in to hold the ribbon and vellum in place.
