Welcome to Clear Scraps Week with GlueArts!

Welcome to Day Two of our Clear Scraps week!

Many of you posted you've hesitated about working with acrylic because truthfully you felt out of your element. And needed ideas for how to work with it.

Well once again the Glue Girls are thinking outside the box!

Designer Linda Albrecht has a beautiful door hanger! Love that she diecut a shape out of the acrylic to fit over a door nob. And note...she made this out of an album!

Designer Lesley Landgon has an equally beautiful layout that uses the Deco XL Clear Shapes for the background of her stunning layout.
