Here's a great way to make your own stamps from your favourite dies using a fab product from Stix2 called Mount & Stamp Foam. It's designed for use on unmounted rubber stamps but if you run it through your die cutting system using a fairly solid die you can create your own stamps very easily. Here I've used the platform die from the Sizzix Bigshot Plus starter kit & the foam cuts very easily. You will find that there is a "cling" side to the foam, which is the side which will attach to your acrylic block & a very sticky side which is the side you will stamp with. To remove the sticky just wipe with Stix2 Adhesive remover. For the designs below I've stamped onto a gingham background using Memento inkpads.
