Not made up my mind yet as to whether to trim paper circular or square, or to try and remove envelope paper.

Here are the pages in a circle display, look cleaner without the paper, but a pain to remove from envelope paper.
Probably keep both for the moment.
Edit. Would probably show up better with a black background.

Victor,
I love this!
If you can, could you send me a pdf file of these.
I'd like to add them to my "modern stamps" Liberty Album.
Thanks!

P.S. I agree making a from scratch page takes a while on Album Easy. It took me 30 minutes!

Ari, do you mean the circle ones?
Edit, have sent you both.

I made my page with AlbumEasy. I went for a more spartan look. 
But I decided on square borders. I agree separating these from the paper is a pain. I decided to try various options and decided however I get them is what I will mount. I considered black mounts but it is tricky to get them to look good and what with some on paper I thought that clear was best.
I need to make a new page for 2022 and up.

Looking good Jack, nice to see them all on one page as well.
Not too bad on paper if it's all the same colour, but a bit messy looking when the paper is, yellow, blues, reds, whites, some thick, others thin.
I used a hand sanitizer, 72% ethanol, to remove the backing paper, works but not overly efficient. We can not get Bestine or pure citrus up here, though I have not checked for Gamsol. I tried various pure citrus extracts but not very successful.

Your album page looks great with the clear, square mounts. I prefer clear mounts in general because it allows a stamp album to still look like a stamp album while providing protection for the stamps as well as reasonably secure mounting. I do tend to prefer the Scott/Prinz/Showgard mounts although they do require some dexterity. It is really nice to be able to see the original pictures and notes in the stamp spaces when you attach them by just moistening the top flap. I have a couple of times run into challenging pages where the original collector thought they needed to moisten the entire back of a Scott mount. Those were exasperating to remove the stamps!

Have just modified a couple of pages from AlbumEasy, the originals from Bob Bankhead, to whom my due thanks and appreciation. (always easier to modify a file than create a new one from scratch)
