Well, wouldn't you know those Stamping Bella's that i ordered!! I wasn't expecting them for at least another week!
I played with them a little bit last night....
I'm frustrated with my See-D's Reusable Cling because it WILL NOT stick to the back of the stamp. It says its permanent but i think they lie. Ok maybe not lying, but i think the problem lies in the fact that the back of the rubbah is textured a bit and not smooth. i have an idea to remedy this, and also make it work alot better with my clear blocks.
Here is my idea, if you've tried this please let me know! I'm going to stamp onto a transparency with staz-on the image. then somehow attach the transparency (maybe if i can get some crystal effects or liquid glass) to the stamp, and then adhere the cling to the transparency.
Theoretically i think it will work.
**EDIT: I dont' have any ez mount and i'm trying to use what i have. i don't want to pay shipping for just one thing. i may break down and buy it if i can find other things i like. but i have to wait till after my stamping party.
Anyway the bella's i got?
I got the "hearty sheep" (a sheep holding a heart balloon) and the sayings "i love ewe" and "thank ewe"
I also got the Bella who is carrying a baby and mopping the floor in high heels and a dress and apron with her hair all wrapped up, and the saying that says "i want to be called domestic goddess"
This will be what goes on my Valentine's Day card to sara!
I also got to play with my white liquid applique on the sheep! I didn't do an actual card yet though with them, and at the moment D is sleeping in the bedroom (aka craft room). So it will have to wait till either later, or tomorrow. (and with the amount of unproductiveness i've been feeling, it may end up being the weekend before i craft again).
I don't have Bellas, or any stamps for that matter that have to be mounted in this matter . . . however, wasn't Bonnie (another SBS2 sister) just saying how well EZMount works? Maybe you should ask her? Good luck! Geez, I need to get some Bellas!!
ReplyDeleteI experimented a bit with how to mount my new Bella's and ended up taking Tracy's advice and using EZ Mount. So far, so good.

I love when you post, do it more! :) you're so creative and precise.
ReplyDeleteI received my very first Bella stamps as a RAK. I never bought any of them! I never used those cling things. I didn't know you had to mount the Bellas. . .I have EZ mounts and I they're great!
ReplyDeleteYour SBS2 sis,

I can't help you with this one either. I'm like Carol and don't have any Bellas. Did that sound sad and pathetic? I do have one stamp that is not mounted, but I use two sided tape for it. Good luck with this and I hope you get it figured out. Sorry I couldn't help:(
