    why not cut and stamp afterwards? i don't like dies that are filled in because they require a lot of work. it's a good workaround but i think i will stick with dies that make it easier!

    Thanks, Jennifer! I have sets of the stamps and dies and have struggled lining them up properly. Using the clear acetate pattern is genius! I am off to make one for each set. (BTW...see you in camp soon.)
