Nope.
Still no TV.
But here's a tip that came to life for me within the past couple days.
It makes me love my Christmas Star stamp even more:
Q: What could make Clear-Mount stamps more user-friendly?
A: If they stayed on the acryllic block better.
Solution: Apply a little 2-Way Glue to the sticker side of the stamp!
First of all, let me tell you a little about 2-Way Glue….
- One way to use is WET. Apply glue and immediately add glitter or attach to your project and let dry.
- Second way to use is TACKY. Apply glue and let dry FIRST. Then use similar to "post-it" type removable glue.
The second way–TACKY–is how you can make your stamps stay on your block.
When I first tried this technique, I completely covered the sticker side of the stamp.
Unnecessary!
For my beautiful Christmas Star, I drew a line from center to tip on each point of the star.
That may even be unnecessary.
I recently read that just a dot of 2-Way Glue will work! (Haven't tried that yet with my other stamps.)
But I'm amazed how well my Christmas Star stays on my block!!
(and then comes off when I want it to.)
Happy Me!!!!
You decide what works for you. But DEFINITELY give it a try.
Then…
HAPPY YOU!!!
I'll be back tomorrow with another great tip–perfect for a girl like me.
And I'm guessing for YOU, too.
Have a great day!
