Yes, I have. I super glued it back into place. It's a set I hardly ever use... Itty Bitty Borders. I feel guilty about tradin it, so I'm stuck with a set I never use. Why did I miss and shave a part of that flower off?
I've wondered the same thing... I have never copped off a piece of my stamp... but have on the sticker.

Thankfully I have not, but I have come soooo close that when I see it about to happen I just let go and let it all drop, sometimes my hands work faster than my brain and it can lead to disasters!
On Simply Circles I cut too far in and detached one of the small circles in the group of small circles, luckily it was cut across the none image area, so I just stuck it on the block right where it would have been had I not cut across. It taught me to be a lot more careful though!

Don't quote me on this, but I think if you ever made an error like cutting a piece of your image that SU might replace it for you at no extra charge (if it is still a current stamp set). Accidents do happen sometimes and it just might happen to me one day. Maybe a demo could confirm this information.
Nope, but I have chopped off a piece of my finger though! I cut my finger with the craft and rubber scissors while mounting a stamp. Those suckers are SHARP!

I have to say that is one of my favorite things about the acrylix from CTMH. You can (on purpose) cut your images. Then when you use your block to stamp you can put only one part on...or you can add the part you chopped off. For example there is a "Goal Girl" set where the girl has a ponytail. If you have a boy you could lop off the ponytail and it'd be a boy. Keep that piece on your sheet and later on you can add it back on if you want to do a girl page. I do this a lot with words or things I want to stamp different colors.
One of my first sets was the big verse set & I sliced a t off the end of a word. I just ink it on now but maybe I'll see if SU will replace it! Worth a try, THANKS!
I put more than I would like to admit because I do it all of the time deliberately. Alot of stamp sets I have have sayings under the stamp and I hate that. I want to put whatever I want under the stamp and not what they have. I mount mine on the side often or have an acrylic if it is too big.
I purposely cut off the numbers on Botanicals. Afterwards, I thought "I could have just wiped the ink off that tiny spot before I stamped it!" Oh, well, I probably will never want to get rid of it anyway - I really like the set!
I have not done it yet, but I can see I may. I finally broke down and got the rubber/craft scissors. Man, oh man! I can see now how easy it would be to do with a proper pair of scissors.
Yep...accidentally cut an image once after mounting probably a thousand stamps (I put my MIL's together too). I think it was the ladybug in Little Layers.
Sliced a tiny cut into the image....hysterically called my demo at the time, she made no promises, but about a week or so later, received the same rubber image in the mail from SU. I was so impressed. I never had to mail back my "damaged" piece of rubber either.
So, my suggestion is to call your demo and see if she can work some magic. It is worth a try.
I haven't, but once at a workshop, we were using a set with a big sand castle, and the top pennant had been lopped off by my now-upline when she mounted it!
