You can make a Stamp-a-Ma-Jig  (we'll use the acronym S-A-M-J)from wood, legos, anything that creates an upside down "L" shape.  Additionally, you will need,
1. a piece of clear plastic (acetate)
2. black archival ink works best
3. wood stamps

The Stamp a ma Jig can be used at least three ways.
1.  Place the acetate in the corner of the S-A-M-J.  Stamp the image you want to place on your card.  Remove the S-A-M-J and place the acetate image where you want it on the card.  Put the S-A-M-J back on the corner of the acetate, then remove the acetate (clear plastic) and stamp the image.  

2.  If you stamp an image, and want to make sure it is perfect, keep the stamp in place and put the S-A-M-J on the corner of the stamp and remove the stamp.  If the image isn't perfect, re-ink the stamp and put it back into the corner of the S-A-M-J and re-stamp the image.

3,  If you have a lot of design on your card and want to find the perfect spot for your sentiment, stamp the image on the acetate with the S-A-M-J placed in the corner of the acetate.  Remove the acetate and position it on your card until you find the exact spot you want the sentiment.  Once you find the perfect spot, keep the acetate where you want the image, position the S-A-M-J in the corner of the acetate and remove the acetate.  Stamp your image and leave the S-A-M-J in place until you are sure your image is perfect, if not, re-ink and re-stamp the sentiment.

I'm sure there are other uses for the S-A-M-J, but these are the only ones that I am aware of.  If you have other ideas, please leave them in the comments.
