What would I do without my SAMJ? I shudder to think. I use it all the time. But, I think I'm the only one who uses it "upside down." I place it at the bottom of the acetate on the left. That way, I get a snug and exact fit with the stamp into the SAMJ corner. Am I weird? LOL
Having a different style stamp positioner I found this tutorial very helpful. Now I can explain how easy it is to use the stamp-a-ma-jig.
Cheers and thanks
This is a great tutorial, guess I have to order one now A customer is wondering if it would be good for using with alphabet sets - I would assume yes, but does anyone have any direct experience?

Any time I use an alphabet set I use my SAMJ to position it.
ETA: If you notice in the catalog the SAMJ is shown with an alphabet set. Probably because they are what it is mostly used by scrappers with.
I have the old stamp positioner that SU sold before the SAMJ and so I have not demo'd it at any of my stamp clubs. After seeing this I will have to get the new one and start using it! I'm sure my ladies will love it!! Thanks for the tutorial.
I downloaded the tutorial earlier but can't find it. Now it won't download for some reason, can you send me the tutorial directly? My e-address is [email protected]
I plan on saving this post and reading it. I have been on the fence for awhile about getting one of these. My Mom ordered one from me and when we got it out, well, I was clueless! Thanks for putting this together, Kurtis!!

Wow. What a great tutorial. Have always really wondered how they work. Now I will have to get one for myself. Thanks a lot. Now my wish list just got longer. :p

thanks so much, I have had one for over 18 months and have never used it becuase I don't know how. I am going to learn and maybe I can use it at workshop so I can sell them. tfs
AWESOME!!! Thank you so much for posting this! I deffinatly have to get one now! I've been looking at it in the catalog wondering how it works, now I can get that alphabet set I've also been eyeing but had no clue how I would line it up on a page. Thanks bunches for the tutorial!!!
Stamp-a-ma-jig is the coolest tool I've ever come across. I am such a picky stamper that I never stamp without it. Samj makes your cards look professional. I love it!!
:confused: :confused: Doubly confused. Hi. I've read and re-read this tutorial, and been shown it by my upline, so I finally bought one thinking my world would change. Here's what I'm not getting: let's use the letters, for example. Say I stamp my alphabet on the sheet, remove the sheet, la la, however it works...because every single stamp is not perfectly aligned on my wood block, how do I know how to reposition it on the cardstock when I remove the clear sheet? Does that make sense? let me put it in simple terms to see if i'm doing this right. Ok, i'm going to stamp a title, let's say the word 'hello'.
1. put down cardstock
2. put down clear sheet
3.line up stamps H,E,L,L,O by stamping each one on the plastic sheet
4. pick up the stamps, remove the plastic sheet but leave the samj positioned where it was ligned up
5. re-line up the stamps H,E,L,L,O according to where the samj has been left
Is this right? What am i not getting? what if one letter is positioned a hair higher on teh block than the other, so that you cannot line up all wood blocks perfectly? How does it correct for those little things? Grrrrr....i'd really like me titles to stop being so darn crooooooked.
