We field quite a few calls from inquiring minds wanting to know how to use the unmounted (UM) stamps featured in our monthly collections. While a picture is worth a thousand words . . . a video is really the way to go! In a nutshell, these are the easy steps:

  1. Trim the sheet into individual images with a scissors. Consult the index sheet to determine how to trim text/images, if needed.
  2. Place the stamps face down in an empty pizza box treated with Mount It Adhesive.
  3. Brush a thin, even coat of Mount It Adhesive onto the back of each individual stamp. Allow the adhesive to dry until completely clear.
  4. Insert a heavy-weight sheet of paper into a standard page protector to add stability. Attach the stamps to the protector. Insert the index sheet into the facing page protector.
  5. To use, simply peel the image from the protector and place onto an acrylic block or other non-porous handle. Acrylic rulers work well for large or long images.
  6. When finished with the stamp, simply clean and replace in the protector; store the protectors in a standard 3-ring binder.

When creating the video, I featured the Weathered Florals Unmounted Rubber. Formerly available only as a gift when referring a friend to one of our Clubs, the sheet is now listed for online purchase!
