Here's that tutorial I promised, on how to use a stamp positioner. Because of JustRite's unique interlocking grid system, any of our round, oval, square or round images or sentiments will fit on the Rectangle Stampers -- either Horizontal or Vertical, if you need to stamp them precisely. Below, I placed a sentiment from JustRite's 1-5/8" round set, What's Cookin', on the small Horizontal stamper.
Your stamp positioner will come with some transparent plastic sheets. Align the corner of the transparent sheet with the corner of your stamp positioner and stamp your sentiment on it:
JustRite's Horizontal/squared shape fits right into the crook of the stamp positioner.
Next, position the transparent sheet with the stamped sentiment exactly where you want your stamped image to be. Below, I centered the sentiment on the frame that's printed on the paper:
Then align the stamp positioner with the corner of the transparent sheet. Keeping the stamp positioner held firmly in place, remove the transparent sheet.
Next, ink up your stamp and then align the wood stamper in the crook of the stamp positioner (above your paper) and gently lower the stamper onto the paper:
Presto, a perfectly placed sentiment!
The brand of positioner I used is a Stamp-A-Ma-Jig and can be found at Michael's or sold through Stampin' Up demonstrators, rebranded as their own, I believe. I've also seen other manufacturer's very similiar stamp positioners at Michael's and Hobby Lobby.
