Stampin' Up! sells them. They are similar to laser transparencies.

Window sheets are acetate, and you can buy them through Stampin' Up, or cheaper at an office supply store. If you're NOT going to put them through your printer or a copy machine, or emboss, you can buy the cheaper "write on" transparencies - the kind teachers use with an overhead. I bought them last year to make those cute Christmas ornaments with the stamped acetate insert, and I think I paid something like $8 for a box of 60 at Office Depot (their own brand). They're lots of fun to work with, but you have to stamp on them with a permanent ink, like Stazon, and then use permanent markers (like Sharpies) to color them in. The kind that you run through a printer/copier machine have a special coating on them which makes them quite costly (closer to $30 a box), and not as clear (the coating makes them somewhat cloudy). But you'll also need to consider if you want to heat emboss on them; not sure if the regular, write-on ones work for that. I believe the Stampin' Up ones do.

Hope that helps. Linda

If you don't want a box of them just go to the Office Max/Depot copy center. They will sell them by the sheet. They are also known as "report covers".
