I cut mine up and put them on Jenga blocks. Flaxychick (I think that's right) posted on her blog about doing this some time ago...and I jumped on the cut it all up bandwagon.

What a FABULOUS idea! I use mine unmounted, and didn't use the foam, just Aleene's Tack it Over and Over on the back. They work GREAT! This really IS a super set because all the sayings fit PERFECTLY in the word window punch! Just used it last night to make a few cards!

so many sayings
I was curious about why you would mount them on the bottom of the domino. It seems that you could have easier placement by putting the words opposite the labels. Did the dominos fit in the clear SU box?
I definitely like the domino idea, since this is the only hostedd set I'm interested in. Well, I would like the in the spotlight, but that's out of my reach! :rolleyes:

AWESOME! Just earned that set and should have it in another day or two. Gotta ask the same question jutta did though....why not mount on the side opposite the name of the stamp?

you could also mount them on jenga blocks like everybody else on the website has talked about doing since the catty came out. hope that helps.

you can find a mini jenga game for kids at the dollar store, and the dollar spot at target which are smaller than regular jenga blocks. they're perfect for a little stamp

I love the domino idea! I like them on the sides like that. I don't know if all the jenga blocks would fit in the case!

Wonderful, wonderful idea. You could also use the dominos for other sets such as Flexible Fancy Phrases. These sets don't need to be mounted on both sides of the block just use dominos. You are brilliant.
Thanks

NP - I hadn't seen the jenga thing, and I don't even know what those are.
I mounted them on the backside, since the edge was a little too narrow for the rubber, adn it stuck over the edge. I didn't think it would have enough stability otherwise.
