Pergamano©:

This parchment paper craft originated in Europe and came to South America after Columbus. Martha Ospina rediscovered the craft, taking it back to Europe. The craft now utilises an imitation parchment paper with special properties which makes many techniques such as tracing out patterns, colouring with paint and ink, perforating, cutting, embossing (raising a pattern in relief) and dorsing (applying colour to the back of the parchment paper) easy to accomplish. "Using these techniques you can create a variety of cards, envelopes, bookmarks gift tags and boxes, candle shades and decorations. The completed work can be flat or three dimensional.
