How do you put vellum quotes on scrapbook paper?

There are a ton of great ways to use vellum. One of my favorites is as an overlay. Whenever I am using bright or bold papers, I will print a small narrative onto the vellum in a dark ink. I prefer to use nice clean tears, instead of cutting it. It gives a slightly roughened edge. It can be a little tricky using glue to secure it down, as you will be able to see the glue through the vellum and it can cause distortion of the vellum itself. I usually skip the glue, and secure it down with some interesting brads, or something of that type. The pattern of the paper will still be visible through the vellum, but it will be softened.

What was an illuminated manuscript written on?

The finest medieval manuscripts were made on vellum, which is a membrane on the inside of a mammal skin and was usually made from cattle or sheep. Paper, for most of the middle ages, was made of vegetable fibers that did not last as well as vellum, but some of the less expensive manuscripts were made on it. During the late middle ages, and abundance of linen rags lead to the invention of rag paper, which was far more durable than either earlier papers or vellum, and also had much better burst strength. The Wikipedia article on vellum (link below) says that vellum is more durable than paper, but it certainly is nowhere nearly as durable as neutral rag content paper. I have handled paper from the Gutenberg Bible, the Nuremberg Chronicle, and other books of that time, that are without any obvious indications of deterioration.

Which of these describes how paper was introduced into medieval Europe?

Paper was one of the most important medieval inventions. In ancient times, the materials used for writing were very limited. Papyrus was available in quantity, and it was inexpensive, but it was not very strong and did not last well. The other option was vellum, which was a membrane from the inside of the hide of an animal, usually sheep, which was not available in quantity, and was very expensive, but had the advantage of lasting much better. Good books were made from vellum, and this represented a great part of their cost, though the cost of writing the content of the books was much higher. It is possible that the invention of paper came about in Europe as an indirect result of the introduction of new spinning wheels and looms, which produced large amounts of linen fabric. The use of large quantities of linen resulted in large amounts of rags, and the people of the Middle Ages always tried to make use of the things they had, and so invented paper making as a way to use them. But one way or another, paper was introduced in the High Middle Ages, and this resulted in a slight reduction in the price of books. But more to the point, there was an abundance of paper, which was stronger and much more durable than vellum, and not more expensive than papyrus. This led to its common use. And its common use led to another, very important historic invention. Paper has some qualities that vellum and papyrus do not. Vellum is too uneven in thickness to be useful for printing with the printing press, and papyrus is so weak the press is likely to pull it apart. You can use the other materials for hand printing, such as rubbing by hand on a woodblock, but they do not work with a printing press, which requires precisely flat surfaces and pulls across whole page at once. Without the invention of paper, the printing press is not practical. And so, without the invention of paper, the invention of the printing press might have gone unnoticed.
