Tips and Tricks for Using Unmounted Stamps

Did you know...

  • When removing an old stamp from a wooden handle you can use a microwave to slightly heat the adhesive.  Heating the adhesive that is on both sides of the cushion loosens it from the rubber and the wood!  We've found that 5 to 25 seconds depending on the size is just about the right heating time.
  • If you're using our 6mm stamp mounts and having problems handing the thinner acrylic you can use a StampEZ mount as a handle.  Simple attach your unmounted stamp to the 6mm mount as you normally would, then attach a StampEZ mount (the 2" x 2" works great) to the 6mm mount!
  • Keep a bottle of denatured alcohol or isopropyl alcohol handy to clean your scissors while trimming foam cushion.
  • You can store Cling Foam® backed stamps easily onto vinyl binder sheets available at any office supply.
