Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Not being able to identify the type of sticker (clear back vs paper) has been my biggest gripe about decorating Aidan's band since the beginning. I cannot tell you the number of stickers that I have bought, thinking that they were clear backed, only to find out that they were indeed paper backed. I know try to stick to the meandmybigideas, or ones that specifically say clear backed. I don't know about the Vellum ones at all. One thing I do know, is that they stickers that are textured are nice, but can peel around the edges quicker than the normal ones. You know what could be a cool addition to the decorating file? A section that gives creatively challenged moms some " theme " ideas and how that theme was achieved. For example, Aidan had a blizzard helmet. I covered it with snow flake stickers and snowmen. What do you think? > Hi All Sticker decorators! > > I posted a decorating help file and the sticker section wasn't too great.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 I think that is a cool idea . Jenna is done with her band but i am one of those creatively challenged moms. poor little Jenna had a nice pure white band the entire time.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 , Very cool idea on the themes. I'll start a list. We can sort by Boy, Girl or Either. I'm running out of ideas for na's band and I only paint it every 4-6 weeks! I'm assuming by your note that meandmybigideas stickers are always clear backed?!

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 , I checked out the file this morning and it looks terrific. You sure came up with a lot of ideas! As far as I have seen, all of the meandmybigideas stickers are clear backed. I really like them because they have great theme sheets. Aidan, right now is in a " football " helmet (w/ the meandmybigiseas stickers, not NFL) until Superbowl! > > Hi All Sticker decorators! > > > > I posted a decorating help file and the sticker section wasn't too > great.
