These clear labels are quick drying so can be applied almost instantly with out smudges unlike are clear labels. I also think the clarity is far better with Avery Clear Labels. Others have a much more opaque look.
I like the fact that I can use it to create a "stamp like image" for the cards I make. I came up with a "logo" and I printed it on the labels. I like the clear ones because the label blends into the color of the card and all you see is the wording that is printed on it. Best of all....no mess.
