Default Unmounted stamp

Hope you don't mind a basic question - but how do you use you unmounted stamps.

I have tried a couple of methods of attaching to acrylic blocks, but without much success.

I'd love some advice!

I paint Aleene's Tack it over & Over on the backs of mine. This stays tacky so it will stick to your acrylic block over and over. Very economical too!

Michelle, how do you store them then, once you use the glue on the back?

stash fairy......Many people (myself included) use just double stick tape on the bare rubber. I just put a couple 1 inch pieces on the acrylic block and stick the bare rubber stamp to it. The sticky lasts for several stampings. Just peel the rubber stamp off gently after use. When the sticky is no longer on the tape, just peel it off and wipe the block clean and apply more tape.

I find it's the easiest method. Certainly cheaper, too. You may choose to put something under your project paper when stamping like a magazine or firm foam mat. Sometimes I do/don't. Which ever you prefer.

Stash Fairy,
I use a spray-on tack I think by Krylon, on my blocks. The stamps stick very well without getting/staying sticky. The tack will wash off when I need to reapply but I haven't had to yet and I sprayed it on a few months ago.
