Try this unique way of displaying photos or create a fun gift for someone special.

Instructions: Pick a case from a double DVD set. They are thicker and hold more papers.

With a sharp craft knife, cut out the DVD circle from the back side of the case.

Cut 2 pieces of paper to fit inside the DVD case. Measurements will differ depending on the insides of your case.

Adhere background paper to the inside front and back covers. I embellished with rick rack 1" above the bottom edges to keep the inside flat to hold more photos.

Cut patterned paper to cover the outside of the DVD case.

Attach rickrack 1 1/2" from the top edge. Attach 2 silk flowers with brads.

I attached my DD's bag tag on the front cover.

Place a stack of photos inside. Designer: Becca Huber, Classy Coach

The post office is raising shipping prices, again! With the last postage increase we decided not to increase our shipping and handling. However, with this change we must update our shipping and handling to reflect the increased cost of postage. Effective with your June 2007 Classy/Plush Pak, shipping and handling will increase. The new rates will be $5.50 for Classy Paks and $6.75 for Plush Paks. This change will be reflected in your June 2007 billing. (Please note we will be auditing our records over the next couple of months to be sure this is cost effective for us. The rate increase has changed more significantly for packages being shipped to the west coast and we may have to adjust accordingly, but will notify members prior, if such is the case.)

Thank you so much for your understanding and continued support!
