Default Converting wood-mount to clear mount

Can I convert my wood-mount stamps to be used on my acrylic bases? How do I do that?

You sure can! I'm in the process of converting mine. I'm about 1/2 done. I used EZ Mount Foam. A bunch of places online have it so just shop around for pricing. I got a pair of good scissors for stamps. Make sure they can both cut through it and have a thin enough tip to get good cuts.

All you do is peel off the rubber part of the stamp. Most come off really easily, but if it doesn't, microwave for a few seconds. Then place the stamp face up on the sticky side of the foam. Cut around the stamp as closely as possible. The other side of the EZ Mount has the static cling that will allow it to stick to the acrylic block.

HTH. Let me know if you have any questions.

NP. It saves SOO much room. And so much easier to store. Which means more room to buy more Plus you will use them more because you will be able to find them easier
