A short video on how to mount stamps on Kling-On

Mounting unmounted rubber stamps.

The Mount may be wood, clear acrylic or some other material

The foam or cushion provides “ padding” for the stamp so the image prints evenly

The rubber die contains the stamp design

How to use

 

1.    Trim the die using a sharp pair of scissors (some of the stamps are already trimmed) leaving a very small border. It is important not to undercut the stamp or the design will not print properly.

2.    Cut a piece of       slightly larger than the die and peel away the paper from the sticky side of the cushion, and press the die on to it.

3.    Use a sharp pair of scissors and cut the stamp design out, leaving a border of a few millimetres. NB it is important NOT to undercut the die. The cut should slope away from the design, not underneath it Practise on a corner of the sheet first . It may be better to cut on the left side of the die.

4.    Press the cushion side firmly on a clear acrylic block. The Kling-On will adhere time and time again to the acrylic block making it easy to use different designs on the same block.

5.    Stamp your design. Clean your stamp and store on a clear plastic sheet or holder.

We do not recommend prolonged use of  acetate sheets or cd cases which have a high content of acetate (acid) to store your stamps on.

We recommend that you use Storage boxes or Kling-On Storage sheets which are available from

 The Artistic Stamper

6.    Other ways of mounting your stamp are

7.     Use a stick glue on the rubber only and then mount temporarily on an acrylic block

Adhere your die to a piece of cushion with double sided tape and then mount permanently on a wood block
