How to line up your sentiment stamps

I was putting a stamp set together for a Christmas Card I am making today and I thought that I'd never shared the idea of how I line up my sentiment stamps so that they are straight on the wooden blocks.

1sentiment1

I take a ruler (I used a quilter's ruler) and draw a faint line across the bottom of the wood block.  I draw the line right at the point where I want the bottom of the last sentence to line up.

1Sentiment2 

I then take my pencil and put a dot on each end of the sentiment right at the bottom of the letter.

1Sentiment-3

  I line up the dot on each end of the sentiment with the pencil drawn line on the wooden block.  Perfect alignment every time!    E-mail me if you have any questions.

Thanks for visiting.

    On February 15, 1842, the U.S. Postal Service first introduced adhesive stamps (stamps you lick) to the public. Adhesive stamps were all the rage until 1989, when self-adhesive (peel and stick) stamps were introduced (actually, they were first introduced in 1974… and they were a total failure!). Now, of course, the post office doesn't even…
