    Can you add the smallest square to a large stamp block for stamping with unmounted stamps, that don’t have there own foam on them. Or are going to create a new system for stamp blocks. I have many stamps that I haven’t mounted yet, that I’d love a second option to EZ Mounting each and every stamp.

    Hi Christine, have you ever used photopolymer stamps? They never lose their cling. It’s the natural property of the material - instead of a “coating” on many others on the market today. You just need to refresh the surface with a baby wipe every now and then. Or wash with some mild soap for deep clean. You do need to pat it dry for it to be sticky again.
