DIY Acrylic Earring Kit - Tri-Color Easter Eggs!

Little pink piece

The small pink piece at the top is small and while removing the paper backing, the piece flipped out of my hand and could not locate it, so I had to order another kit. Other than scraping the paper off, is there a better way to remove the paper backing on all acrylic pieces? Finally, the french hooks included are not very robust, and it would be nice to have an extra jump ring included in these kits - they also are easy to drop and go into places unknown. Cute design for the earrrings, abd it would be good to have an option of sterling silver parts or other mixed metal parts - I don;t know anyone who wants to deal with the eventual tarnish of sterling.
