    When I use them, I use them over something I printed on another paper, because they’re somewhat see-through. Or I have seen a quite a few people use them for wedding/graduation invitations/announcements and you can print quotes or whatever on the vellum, punch holes and tie it to a colored or patterned paper with a ribbon.
    Here are some pictures of examples of what some people do with vellum:

    It depends on what exactly you’re talking about.

    Plain Vellum sheets: I’ve used as backing or overlay or even put stickers on them and then put that on the page.

    Vellum Stickers: just like normal stickers though the vellum shows on some colors and not on others.

    Vellum Rub-Ons: somewhat difficult to use but with patience it can be done.
