How to Use a Stamp Positioner

When using stamps to create images, cards, and other craft projects, the stamp positioner will help you to position a stamp image in the precise place on the page or craft space where you want it. This is very handy where you want to add a stamp image inside an existing stamp image (such as a border). Using a stamp positioner is easy.

    Purchase a stamp positioner if you don't already have one.
