Default Anyone mounted an SU! alphabet w/acrylic mounting system?

I am wondering if any of you have seen a "Merry Christmas" stamp (any company) in a font similar to the Collage Alphabet offered by SU! in their winter mini. I want it for the front of my Christmas cards, and really don't want to stamp each letter individually on 50 plus cards. So a similar stamp is my 1st desire.

Alternatively, I have considered buying acrylic mounting system parts and remounting the Collage Alphabet so that I could stamp Merry and Christmas together. I haven't figured out what I would do for that second 'r' in Merry....and it seems like a lot of work just to get that shabby chic look. Have any of you done this with your SU! alphabets? Could you stamp whole words easily?

TIA for you help.

Kelle

Default I use SU! stamps on acrylic mounts all the time.

I just nuke the stamp for 10 seconds and peel off the wood mount then mount on clear vinyl like you can get at JoAnn fabrics to make a table cloth or cover furniture with and then it will stick to the acrylic mount. It sticks by static or something because I don't use anything to make the vinyl stick to the acrylic mount. So just get a big enough mount for the words and mount them all on a piece of vinyl. For the second R in Merry you could do one of several things, leave space for the R and use a metal letter or some other form of the letter, stamp it freehand after stamping the majority of the word or try contacting Stampin' Up! to see if you could just buy an additional R.
