Help! I've damaged the mounting foam on my new Paisley Background

As I was mounting my new Paisley Background stamp I somehow must have pressed down on it before centering it and had it hanging off the end. I pulled it up off the block and tore the mounting foam completely off in about a 1" X 1" section of the corner. The pieces won't stick to the rubber now and I'm wondering if having it in pieces will make it lumpy in that spot now if I was to glue it.

What are my options for fixing it. Can I get new mounting foam from SU? Or somewhere else?

Thanks,
Sandy

You should contact your demo first and see what she has to say. SU has fabulous customer service and you never know what they might be able to do to help you. If you can't get the foam from SU, I would first glue in the piece and see what happens. If it doesn't stamp well, pull off all of the foam and buy some ez mounting foam. Good luck

I would use sticky strip in that area. Glue may bulk it a little. Sticky strip has a strong grip & should do the trick for you. GOOD LUCK!!
