Also, the last time I removed the backing paper before cutting the combined stamp and ez mount as per Joanna's advice. I used to spray with water to reduce the stickiness but this time I wiped the scissor blades with a versamark pen. It helps to stop the stickiness and can also be used to clean the scissors afterwards. Beryl

I also cut around each design first, leaving a small edge, and then stick onto the ez mount and then cut around that after. It's very sticky stuff isn't it! I keep a jar of sticky stuff remover and put all my scissors in to soak from time to time. Trouty x (Jean)

I find it easier to cut through the ez mount then too (usually use a craft knife to do this) Kate x

But it is so much easier. My hand would ache after I used scissors and I get a much neater finish too. I've heard demonstrators on TV say to put the whole sheet on first and it makes me wonder if they have assistants to do it for them. My hand could hardly move after trying to cut through rubber as well as ezmount - but then I am a bit weak and wabbit maybe they work out or are just better with scissors! I have bought a laminator and I am going to laminate pages with images of my stamps and then stick the ezmounted stamps onto it. I keep my stamp sets in zip lock bags in tesco file folders and this should make them less likely to get damaged. Alison

I also dust the ez mount with talc between the stamps to remove some of the stickiness and then use a baby wipe to clean my scissors. Lynn xx
