Does anyone have a list of how you paired up the stamps when mounting this set?? I am ready to get this set mounted and thought it would save me some time figuring out which ones to put together. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!!!! TIA ;)
I'm still debating getting this set - but (personally) would not mount combinations on the same block. Would lose some 'flexibility' to use in other combinations. I would just use my stamp positioner to get them lined up.
There were a few earlier threads in which people had come up with a list of possible combinations but I don't think anyone who has this set has actually mounted multiples next to each other on the same wood block. Doesn't mean it can't be done if that's what you want to do.

This set has 56 little words and 28 blocks, so you do have to put two words on one block, but most people put one on the long side, and one on the short side next to it (the "end" of the block") I personally put both words on the top though, so it is easier to find which stamp I am looking for (since I can see all the words at once) I just know that the top word (longer word) is opposite the labels, and the bottom word is on the end.
I finally have this set mounted!!! I spent several hours this afternoon working on it.......really, it wasn't that bad, once I got going on it!!! Now I can have some fun making cards and using these little stamps!!
Thanks for posting this question! I haven't mounted my set because I was too lazy to look up the old threads, but you did it for me! This week I will have my set mounted!
I must tell you what I did!! I went in to MSWord and made a copy of the words that I paired up together (in both the Everyday/Expressive Flexible Phrase stamp sets). Then I ran each copy through the Xyron Laminator........so now I have a copy to keep in each stamp set. Will be handy to take out and study......to figure out what phrases I want to put together. Just thought I would pass this idea on to each of you. I did save this ......so, if anyone would like a copy, email me and I will send it to you.
I don't have Expressive Flexible Phrases yet, but when I do I will be mounting them like my Everyday Flexible Phrases in alphabetical order. See the picture below.
Thank you QBee, I wanted to do them in alphabetical order, but I couldn't figure out how to do it without having a long word on a short side. Now that problem is solved, and I will be able to find all of my cute little words!
WAHOO!
