For today's challenge to use stamps and/or accessories we wish we'd never bought - plus use staples!
I haven't used this set since it was in the mini last Spring because I really don't like it! Or the matching punch particularly. The giant flower is a pain to cut out and the whole feel of the set just doesn't do anything for me. I also don't particularly care for Curvy Verses (another mini-catalog set I jumped on the bandwagon over). And the staples? Don't like them either! Also used the cutter kit which I basically think was a mistake for me; only really use the distressing tool, and my bone folder works just as well - LOL. This was a fun challenge.

Great job! It is so hard to work with stuff you don't care for. I have to agree with you on this set. I had to have it and now I rarely use it! (I love it's matching punch though!)

You did a great job on this! I agree that I don't like this set or punch very much. I think I have used mine both once. To bad we couldn't have a try it for 30 days risk free policy!

I am in the same boat...had to have it, seldom use it...I think if there was a big floral punch I would use it more...great inspiration here...well done.

Oh my, this is one of my favorite sets! And I opened the thumbnail to this card because it's so pretty! I guess it's nice that everyone has different tastes - we see such a variety of gorgeous cards like this one, even if the person making it isn't too keen on the stamp set. TFS!
