Awesome tip! Thank you so much. An alternative to acetate which is even easier to find (pretty much anywhere quilting items are sold) is quilter's template plastic. You can get it either blank or with 1/4" grid squares printed on it. I use the gridded type for centering & rule-of-thirds guides in my MISTI. They would work well for this, too, since you can use the grid lines after you draw your "X" on your template to help you find & mark the horizontal & vertical center points. The plastic is very durable & inexpensive, the grid lines don't come off, and if for whatever reason your permanent marker lines wear off (or you accidentally clean them off with stamp cleaner!), you can easily redraw them. Just another option. Thanks again for sharing this, & have a wonderful day! :)
Hello Alexandra! I really appreciated this wreath builder hack! It takes away the fear of using it correctly! I think aim going to have to get it now! You e just the best! Thank you for all you do for all of us your devoted subscribers! ~😺Katz
I love this tip!! I struggled with aligning the mandala builder stamp set. I bet Rina would love this tip when she uses her set making her cards on her videos :)
I don't know about this particular template, though I would think it would. If you use the wreath builder on a rectangular panel (e.g. A2 size), the wreath/mandala stamping will be offset on your panel--not dead center like with a square panel. Jennifer McGuire has shown how to do that on her RUclips channel. Hope this helps! :)

What a great tip, you just made stamping a little less frustrating, end result perfect stamping. Thanks for sharing.
That’s really wonderful
Making your lines on the acetate would be easier with the Tim Holtz mat tools.

Will the sticky grid fit into the Tim
Holtz stamper?
Shelley Orenstein yes and we have a video on it 😊
Thank you for showing how to do this:-)
Thank you for this great tip. 😀
Do you ship to Australia?
Gina K. will ship directly to NZ, so I assume you can get in Aussie too. You may also find a local retailer who sells Gina K.
I found with the discount and international shipping and currency conversion, it was about the same price as my local retailer.
Thank you for that. I’ll look into it
I got rid of my misty. Has anyone found another way to use the wreath builder without it?
you can use any stamp platform
Thx, Alexandra. Does the template work for A2 card too? Or does one have to make a separate template for it?
They dont have one yet for A2 cards
