Oh how delightfully random...
Whats a microslide mailer?

DG is pretty sticky stuff, I would have thought that the glass would break if you tried to prize it off I would go with your ida of embossing to hide the DG
Of course it may be easier to start again and chalk your first ones up to experience!

Mailers

A cardboard package (opens like a card) in which you can post microscope slides. They come in different sizes - to hold 1,2,3 or 4 slides (maybe more?) Anyway, they can be altered to make a photo frame (type thing). Mine came with glass (not all do) and I've put pics. of my friend's children behind the slides, decorating the cardboard to match the theme. I'm not good explaining things - and will try to put a pic up (not a fab effort - but I've tried) when finished. Perhaps others have pics. in the gallery.

I was given a present of a book with a glass square stamped and stuck on the front. She had covered it with DG and around the edges had use micrbeads and it looks fab

yes, you can emboss the edges. Just learned how to do that on a recent retreat, and they look fab. We also used very thin foil double sided sticky tape stuff, gold on some, silver on others - this also gave the look of solder, but personally, I loved the silver emossing powder. We put really thin (the tacky double sided tape with the red outside bit) around the edges of the microscope slides, then dipped into embossing powder and heated. looks fab.

I like chocolate milk!
or you could faux solder the edges with utee a la tim holtz

I used an old silver neclace around the edge of the glass on the one in my gallery. Stuck on with Glossy Accents.

We put the Krylon pen round the edges - works great.

New scrapping boy!
Can anyone tell me where the best place is to buy these please?
I've looked on Ebay and can't seem to find the slide mailers... But thats probably coz I'm not sure where to look for them or what to search for IYKWIM?!
Any suggestions for a sponsor that maybe sells them? Pwease?!

I bought mine from Stamp Attic (www.stampattack.co.uk) who sell via E-bay (Stampattack Art Stamps Shop) or their own site. This supplier was suggested via an article in a Scrapbooking magazine, but there are probably many other sellers and also scientific suppliers.
