Stampers’ Q&A: How Do I Get My Clear Mount Stamps To Stick to the Blocks??
October 18th, 2010
Before I get to today’s card, I wanted to answer a question that came to me recently. Jill wanted to know how to keep her Clear Mount Stampin’ Up Stamps from falling off her blocks and messing up her projects!
First thing, you want to make sure the cling side of your stamp is clean. Rub it on your pants or sleeve.
Then, lay your stamp, cling side up, and press your block onto it. You should get a good cling now.
If you don’t, you can clean your clear mount blocks with some Stampin’ Mist. That should do the trick!
View the video to see what I mean!
Today’s card is a mix of Halloween, scary, and birthday.
My husband turns 40 tomorrow! Do you think this would be an appropriate 40th birthday card? (I know, my daughter just turned 11 a few days ago, and my mom’s birthday was on Sat. 3 birthdays in ONE WEEK!).
