Usually if the kids want stickers they will find their own and supply them I dont "officially" offer stickers, but I dont discourage their use either. But I like the transparency idea though, Labdude.

I will take pictures of my "set-up" for Polka dots, they are pretty popular.
All the designs on the RetainerDesigner.com website are cut into the acrylic while the acrylic is still wet. I call it one-step designs because I dont have to use a bur and add acrylic in a second step. I have video of this and will post it when I can edit it.

As far as bur use I think it is called a no.8 bur (?) or half-round. I lso use a fissure bur, and cutting bur, for detailed work.

I would like to expirement with Air-brushing too!
I did experiment with acrylic fingernail polish once, worked pretty good. I will post a pic if I can find my camera.
