Happiness! How to get more from your stamps

How to get more HAPPINESS from your stamps! I was watching the second game of the NCAA playoffs, UCLA vs Texas A&M and well the Aggies almost pulled it off and beat UCLA, who in the final few minutes got it tied and then pulled ahead....It was a most exciting game and almost a nail biter for UCLA! Well, to get to stamping...I got the blocks from the Block guy and proceeded to mount my stamps..cutting the background apart, and then mounting all of the strips

for this last one, it is thin, so..I cut a small strip from the top of the stamp, to lay across the cut line of words. This will stabilize the stamp so it won't slide off. I hate that it is so thin and there is a risk that I will catch the edge of this added rubber, but, it will stabilze it so it will be used.

all done, finally mounting all of them...they fit in a bigger box, so if you 'sell' this idea or if you're a customer and you cut it apart, make sure you ask your demonstrator for a large box (this is the largest size)

I finally broke down, bought the wood and mounted it....needed to get this background stamp more manageable. I think that this was such a great idea! Thanks for a Smart demonstrator, and her husband, who started this company. You can visit them on their website, and blog The Block Guy.
