When I mounted it I photocopied the sticker sheets and reduced them to a size that would fit on one page just inside the plastic case. I then I numbered the photocopy from 1 - 28 two times. Both the words (absolutely and best) with the number 1 went on one block with the shorter word on the end. The words with number 2 (cute and amazing) are also on the same block and so on. This way I just look at the sheet, I know what words are on the stamps and can quickly check what other word is on the block and know which ones to look for. I also put them in the box in the number order so they are easy to find. I mounted Everyday flexible phrases and Everyday Expressive Phrases the same way and they are very easy to find. I'll go take a pic to help you understand better.

Okay I took 2 pics but they are too big for attachments and I can't figure out how to resize them. I'll keep trying!

I put one stamp on each side but put both the words sheets on one side so I can just look at it and know which words are on which one!

I just photocopied the sheet that comes with it. This set, unlike the two flexible phrases sets, is in alphabetical order already so you don't have to second guess. One sheet of rubber is the bigger phrases, and one sheet is the smaller ones. They pretty much dummy-proofed it this time! I just keep the sheet in the box with the stamps so I don't have to search through the ones that are sideways!

Are there mounting options? Why doesn't it just mount like any other stamp set?

This is how I mounted mine... by KIRAJ... she ROCKS and this was the best idea.... You will always see which stamp you have in the box at a glance....wish I had this when I did my flexible phrases.... I would have done the sam....

I mounted mine! I did it in alphabetical order, the stickers both on the sides, and the stamps on either end. Here is a picture.
The sticker that is right side up is on the one that will stamp, and vice versa. I love it! I can read all the stamps through the top of the box no problem.

Great ideas girls, I think I am going to go with Sandra's method as I think that will work the best for me.

Thanks so much for all your input!!:p

I am sort of a lazy stamper... so making a copy of a list is too much for me... And I'd never look at it anyways... BUT what I did do is sort the words alphabetically... then I sorted them by size (tiny words on the side) the two piles were about event which worked out well... then I mounted half of them to read off the rights side of the block, and 1/2 off the left... this way it's easier to peek in the box to see what is on each block. I store them aphabetically too. Here is a picture...

I have a question Sarah..... I did this same method with my EFP's and over a year that I've had them.... I noticed that the smaller words that I mounted on the ends...like yours... from rubbing on the box, they've been sliding from their position. So, basically, I have to recenter them.
I was not very happy.... The way Kiraj set them up... no sliding or touching anything.

Thumbs up Thanks for the info, and guess what SU says?

You guys are GREAT! I just love this site. I got this set in the mail yesterday, and I was dreading cutting it out. These are wonderful ideas. Did you know I called to get replacement rubber for one or two stamps (you know how one tiny one always falls or gets rubbed off when someone cleans it or something--or even accidentally throw a piece away when mounting it), and SU told me they would no longer let you purchase ANY replacement rubber or labels for their stamp sets any more!??? I told them this was ridiculous. I've ordered several before, and paid for them. If any of you have this problem, get on the horn and complain to SU. Maybe they'll change their minds.:confused: Thanks for the demo support.

Does anyone have a list composed for Amazing to Zany like they did with the Everyday Flexible Phrases? Sometimes I just don't think of all the phrases that could be used with these words!!! My brain gets tired. If someone has composed a list please e-mail it to me - [email protected]
Thank you and it would be much appreciated!!

All three of the mini word sets were delivered to my doorstep today, so this information is very timely for me. Thank you!

Yay! I'm so glad you found the help you were looking for on this. It looks like Sandra found the picture I posted a couple months ago, hope it works for you! I love it, as I can always find what I'm looking for and it fills the box enough so nothing slides around. I have not noticed any shifting with this method either.
Good luck!
