Hi Megan. I did try it. The aperture was about 3mm each side bigger than the stamp, the Mylar which a local gallery gave me a strip to try, I cut around 4-5mm bigger each side than the aperture. Trouble was, sharp jolt on the frame, one or two of the stamps moved out of position within the Mylar pocket. I have looked at proper stamp mount but they look to be around the same size as the stamps so would probably see the edge inside the aperture...I’m thinking 🤔....

Dave.
