Have you seen the clear albums yet?
I think they are so unique. Such a conversation piece.
We have clear albums in a variety of shapes and sizes. Some of the shapes include hearts, circles, square with tabs, large rectangle tab albums and more.

They are so fun to decorate. And they really are unique and different than any other kind of album. You can see through each page which adds interest to the album. The ways to decorate these albums are limitless.

CD CASE FRAME
THIS EASY FRAME IS MADE USING A PLASTIC CD CASE.
IT GOES TOGETHER QUICK AND EASY AND MAKES A GREAT GIFT.

FOR THIS FRAME, WE USED THREE DIFFERENT COORDINATING PAPERS. SIMPLY CUT THE PAPERS THE SIZE OF THE INSIDE OF THE CD CASE. EMBELLISH WITH THE EMBELLISHMENTS OF YOUR CHOICE. THE DIAGONAL STRIPE PIECE JUST BELOW THE PHOTO WAS SEWN WITH A SEWING MACHINE USING A ZIG ZAG STITCH BEFORE ADHERING TO THE PAGE. THIS ADDS DIMENSION AND INTEREST TO THE PROJECT. WE USED BLACK PHOTO CORNERS TO ADHERE THE PHOTO TO THE PAGE.

WE ALSO USED COORDINATING PAPERS TO DECORATE THE COVER AND THE BACK OF THE CD CASE. WE ADHERED THESE PAPERS TO THE BACK OF THE OTHERS BEFORE PLACING THEM IN THE CD CASE.
THIS MAKES THE FRAME LOOK FINISHED IF SETTING IT ON A DESK WHERE BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK ARE VISIBLE.
HAVE FUN WITH THIS PROJECT. IT IS QUICK AND EASY TO DO.

IF YOU GET STARTED AND GET STUCK AND NEED HELP FINISHING THE PROJECT, BE SURE TO STOP INTO THE STORE AND WE WILL GLADLY HELP YOU OUT.

DAISY BUCKET CLEAR STAMPS
WE HAVE A LARGE SELECTION OF SINGLE
DAISY BUCKET CLEAR STAMPS.
THESE STAMPS ARE ECONOMICAL AND
EASY TO USE.

Here are some reasons clear stamps
are a great addition to your stamping collection:

You can see straight through to your layout
or card so you can tell when the stamp is in the right position.

Clear stamps are ready to be used – no trimming .

Clear stamps can be used with inkpads, paint, or scrapbook-safe
markers to make titles and embellishments in any color.

Clear Stamps can be stamped individually or combined
on a larger clear block to stamp entire words, phrases, or scenes.

Clear stamps take up very little room to
store, so you can have a wider selection to choose
from without taking up a large area of storage.

WE HAVE USED DAISY BUCKET CLEAR STAMPS
IN OUR 8 FOR $8.00 CARD CLASS FOR MARCH.
THE PHOTO BELOW SHOWS YOU A SAMPLE OF
THE 8 CARDS YOU WILL MAKE IN THIS CLASS.
SOME OF THESE CARDS ARE USING THE
DAISY BUCKET CLEAR STAMPS.

IF YOU HAVEN'T USED CLEAR STAMPS BEFORE,
THIS WOULD BE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO
EXPERIMENT WITH THEM TO SEE HOW YOU
LIKE USING THEM.

WE ARE SURE YOU WILL LOVE THEM AND
WANT TO ADD THEM TO YOUR COLLECTION.
