What adhesive to remount rubber w/foam onto wood?
 

What adhesive do you use to mount rubber stamps that still have foam on them, back onto wood blocks? I have tons of old stamps from a company called "O'Scrap!". One of our LSS went out of business a few years back and they had everything 75%off!! Needless to say, I purchased just about every "O'Scrap!" stamp I could get...with the plan of cutting them up and remounting them. They are multiple word/phrase stamps that are of a particular category (baby, summer, daughter, ballet, camping etc...) Each wood block has 3-5 "sayings/words" on each side of the wood!! Great concept but I don't like hand coloring the rubber to stamp, I want to smoosh my stamp right into the inkpad and stamp!!! So, I want to unmount these stamps, cut them into their seperate "sayings/words" and remount back onto smaller wood blocks that a dear friend keeps giving to me as she unmounts her stamps!!!!!!!!!!!! I know, I may be "bass-akwards" but it's now I like it that counts right!!??

SO, what adhesive do you recommend for mounting foam backed stamps onto wood blocks?!?!

Please help!
Thanks in advance!!

why remount? why not used them on acrylics and save the trouble & time.. not to mention the money

Because I prefer wood mounted. Money is not an issue as a friend is giving me all her old wood blocks, plus, I can cut some of the old wood down to the correct size that I need.

Anyone else have a suggestion for what adhesive to use?!

I use rubber cement and have had excellent results doing that. I'm kinda **** about my stamps and sometimes the wood gets really stained. I remove the stamp (microwave for a few seconds) sand down the wood and spray varnish the wood and reattach the rubber stamp. Works wonderful!!

Stampin' Up's Crystal Effects works great. I just did some and when dry, it is really stuck. You do not have to use a lot either!
PS - I LOVE using wooden blocks over the acrylic mount. there is just something about the feel of the wood in your hand.

Mounting Cushion from Cornish Heritage Farms 10 X 8 piece for $3.29. This is where I get mine and they are very fast. I trace the rubber onto the paper cover cut out and mount, take the back off and mount to block. I hardly have any waste.

I think rubber cement is the best...very thin amount on each side, let dry and attach...

Thanks for the tip! I also appreciate your support in the "wood" area!!! i just really like the feel of the wood stamps not to mention the "tradition" of them...the acrylics just don't seem to cut it for me...in a pinch, ok, but otherwise it's wood all the way!!
