To avoid cutting your butterly's body, try stamping the wings completely and then cutting out the wings using the matching Framelits or Thinlits. After you've cut the wings out, then you'll be able to see exactly where to stamp the body and can easily add it. I found that if I stamped the wings and the body and then tried to cut things out with the Framelits or Thinlits, I had invariably stamped the body too high or too low and either had to cut off part of the body or cut off part of the wings.
Do you have a problem with getting lots of ink on your Clear-Blocks, especially when using photopolymer stamps? Try using a really light touch to ink up the stamps. Even so, you'll probably get some ink on the blocks. If your blocks get really messy, you can give them a good cleaning by rubbing them with a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol. This will remove ink, fingerprints, and even stray bits of adhesive!
