unmounted stamps

[azure722]

Can anyone give me a tutorial about acrylic, EZ mount , and unmounted stamps? There are some I like, but have never done this.

I'll give this a try...
First you take your sheet of uncut stamps and put it onto the ez mount. You simply peel the sticky side of the EZ mount and stick the sheet of rubber stamps onto it. From there you cut out your images, peel off the other side of the EZ mount (the cling side) and you're ready to stamp. Just stick it onto an acrylic handle and you're good to go. There are different sizes of acrylic, you just put it onto one that is close in size. When you're done stamping your image, remove the stamp from the acrylic, clean, and store. The best part about unmounted stamps is the storing and the price. I love mine!
Hope that helps.

After you use the stamp and you take it off of the acrylic block, is the stamp sticky? How does it adhere to the acrylic?

Nope, it's not sticky. It's the neatest thing :-) I just got hooked on TAC and I can carry my stamps around with me and show everyone how "cool" it is :-) :-) For me I had to actually see it to understand. It's a pretty simple concept, but it still "aaaahhhhhhhh's" me :-)

Hi azure, it clings to the block kind of like saran wrap clings to a glass dish. All my stamps are mounted this way and it is wonderful!!
