CHF Backgrounders...Mounted or Unmounted???
 

I want to buy some of the CHF Backgrounders and noticed they come mounted or unmounted. I love my wood mounted SU! Background stamps, but the inexpensive cost of the unmounted backgrounders from CHF means I could get more...more...more!! Help!!!

If you have some of the CHF Backgrounders, what is your preference-mounted or unmounted?????

Although most of my stamps are wood mouonted, I prefer the CHF backgrounds in smart mount (unmounted). The smart mount clings to the index side of SU background stamps if you wish...

I have primarily SU! stamps, but for the CHF I like UM.

I love them um on smart cushion.

CHF BG stamps
 

I just got a shipment from them last week and I was going to write on SCS today. Get the BG on the smart cushion! You will love it! I got the trees BG and it is absolutely beeeyotiful! I also bought the big set of monogram stamps and they are completely worth it! It took me a while to talk myself into the purchase, but now I'm glad I did. I used the discount code that someone posted on this board and it got me an extra 10% off the price of the whole set. They are gorgeous and trimmed and mounted on the smart cushion. It's the way to go! ;)

What is the discount code or where can I find it? I am going to go unmounted thanks to you all who answered this question. I don't think I can go wrong.

Thank you!!

discount code
 

The code that I was told about was stampit. I don't know if it will still be valid, but apparently, it was in a magazine and a fellow SCS was nice enough to share with me. It saved me over $20 bucks because of buying the whole alphabet and the BG stamp - but it was so worth it! ;)

Thank you, Jutta. I'll give it a try!

You can buy a large sized acrylic block from them that fits the BGs...then you can buy them all if you like!!!

You could buy an acrylic block, but I say save your money and put it toward another stamp ... I buy the unmounted on smart cushion also from CHF ... then I just place the stamp face up on the table to use it, I dont mount it on anything at all to stamp with it. It works perfectly. Have fun buying!

I was going to say the same thing! I always use my SU background stamps face up anyway. Gives a much clearer image IMO. So it seems like a waste of money to pay extra for the wood!

I always stamp my SU! background stamps face up also, so it would be the same wouldn't it? Minus the wood block.

Thanks for all this info!!

If I buy the UM to just use on a table like this, do I want regular, or smart cushion? What's the difference?? (I'm an old fashioned wood mounted gal, so I know nothing about the different cushions & such)

I get Smart Cushion, but I use mine on an acrylic block. Regular cushion is for wood block mounting.

Okay, I'm not with it - what is CHF?

Thank you. My brain is so full of abbreviations these days, but there is always room for one more, lol.

UM smart cushion, have big acrylic block that I use. Love them.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but so many have already responded! If you get the smart cushion, how do you care for it? I have several that just came in on Monday, and they have a paper cover. I know you remove the paper, but do you save it? do you keep the smart cushion covered? do I have to protect it? HELP

I just ordered the smart cushion. I plan on using it on the indexing sticker side of a SU background/block.

oh, and I used the stampit discount code and it worked as of April 9, 2007 the day I ordered.

definately unmounted....they take up way less room that way!

Man, I went to check out the site as I had never heard of them, but I can't read anything. That pink on flourescent pink doesn't work for me! %-) Oh, well, I don't 'need' any more stamps anyway, right?! ha-ha!

Thanks Gale!

Pink, on florescent? Their site uses a purple background... sure you went to the right place, because you DO need more stamps :)
